The Flood Response Quick Dry System
Successful water mitigation techniques consist of proper dehumidification and airflow to process wet air. With the Flood Response QuickDry System, everything including drywall, carpets, tile, and wood can be dried if it has been wet for a short period of time.
Using professional tools to ensure that airflow, temperature and humidity are monitored, Flood Response carefully measures the drying progress and produces reports so that you can easily process any insurance claims.

How It Works
The placement of High Capacity Air Movers creates an air vortex, similar to the motion of a tornado. A Low Grain Refrigerant Dehumidifier acts as a drain, eliminating moisture. Wet air goes into the Dehumidifier. Dry air comes out. The structure is normally dried in just 3 days.
Moisture Detection Equipment
We use the latest moisture detection equipment that enables our technicians to accurately pinpoint the water intrusion. Our non-invasive approach eliminates the need for drilling holes for water detection purposes, so walls and floors remains in tact throughout the process. Our advanced tools can detect water in walls, under carpets and without creating the need for future repairs to your property. Our state-of-the-art approach improves the success of recovery for our customers and agent

Our system is not an art...it's a science. The Flood Response QuickDry System offers superior drying based on the science of Psychrometrics. This proven, scientific process measures the dryness of the walls, carpet, and other materials. These measurements are recorded in a log and help us monitor the actual dry time of your property.

Fast Sewage Backup & Sewage Cleanup Removal
A sewage backup problem at your home doesn't have to be a part of a series of misfortunes. A sewage problem stands alone as a very real and hazardous problem that must be rectified immediately. Sewage cleanup is imperative for bringing your home back to normal and it is a process that needs to begin quickly.
Your First Step to Take After a Sewage Spill

The first step you'll need to take in the case of a major sewage spill is to call a professional sewage clean-up company, especially in the case of an outdoor spill. They will know the right steps to take to make sure everything is cleaned and disinfected. The contamination could be more widespread than you may realize. A professional team will know the unexpected areas to explore. Since this is a matter of your and your family's health and well-being, you don't want to take any risks when it comes to clean-up. While you wait for them to arrive, there are a few things you can do on your own to deal with the initial mess.

Exercise Caution When Handling Contaminated Items
First of all, wear protective clothing, including waterproof gloves and rubber boots, when handling any contaminated items. Sewage water contains pathogenic, fungal, viral and other contaminants that can be extremely dangerous to your health. Don't risk spreading disease to yourself or others. If the sewage spill has occurred inside your home there will be many items that will need to be discarded.
Property Loss with Sewage Spills.

Unfortunately, the property loss that comes with a sewage spill can be significant. Carpeting, upholstered furniture, mattresses and other items that can't be washed or dry cleaned will need to be discarded. Hardwood furniture may be salvageable if you are able to completely dry and disinfect the furniture within 48 hours, but wood does absorb moisture so be very cautious about what you keep. You can begin the sewage backup repair process by separating the items that you think will need to be gotten rid of from that which is salvageable. Make sure that the items that can be washed are dried thoroughly after washing to prevent mold and mildew growth. Once professional help arrives, they can better direct your sewage clean up effort. They will know best what can be saved and that which will need to be a casualty of the sewage spill.

Professional Sewage Cleaning Service
Beyond these simple steps, sewage cleanup in your home should be tended to by a professional cleaning service that specializes in sewage cleanup. They will be more aware of the contamination threats that such a spill will pose and will be better equipped to handle it efficiently and with your health in mind. Remember that safety comes first in sewage clean up.
Sewage backflows are a severe health threat to indoor environments and also to the people who reside in them. It can particularly affect small children, the elderly, and those with immune system or respiratory problems.
The longer the contamination continues to persist, the greater the potential for microbial development.
These are some of the disease causing organisms in Sewage:
Hepatitis A Respiratory Disease Bacteria Bacillary Dysentery
Salmonella Balontidiasis

The institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) offers these facts to dispel some typical myths:
Myth # 1
Sewage from oceans, lakes or rivers is clean. This water contains contaminants such as microorganisms, bacteria and pesticides. Trapped inside walls or under floor coverings, it doesn't take long to become a "smelly" health hazard.
Myth #2
Sewage-saturated carpets can be "saved." Absolutely not! Porous materials, such as carpet, pad, upholstery, bedding, wicker, paper goods, or fabrics that can't be washed in hot water, must be disposed of safely.
Myth #3
Partially sewage-flooded buildings are safe. Not unless contaminated areas can be sealed off to prevent cross-contamination of other areas. Only trained professionals using specialized equipment are qualified to restore sewage damage.
