It’s Important to have a Plan In Case of a Flood Event in Great Falls

Flood damage is a problem no homeowner wants to deal with, yet in Montana, intense storms, as well as snowmelt, can trigger flash floods in the area. 

Among the frequently seen issues after flood damage in Great Falls homes include ruined flooring, damaged sheetrock, foul odors, and mold. Fast action is crucial, as the quicker extraction and drying efforts begin, can work in the homeowner's favor to lessen the loss.

The techs have training for handling all types of water loss in local properties and, in many cases, turn it around and save the property owners the cost of replacement. 

Common Flooring Issues

When floodwater invades a property, as little as half an inch can wreak havoc in terms of delaminating tiles, warping hardwood floorboards and plywood subfloors, or seeping into floor joists. The use of specialized drying equipment such as drying mats on hardwood floors and subfloor assists in pushing out the embedded moisture and drying it thoroughly.
