Our Flood Water Removal Team Is Always Available

The second quarter of the year is here again. Wet weather is a substantial part of these few months. While flooding in Setauket can happen at any time, the amount of water from storms and melted snow can add up to significantly more. Many houses often require flood removal services for their basements.

SERVPRO's professionals can also protect your home in Setauket with flood removal services in more areas than the basement. We can also extract water from crawlspaces and other low-lying areas.

How do we get water out of places below ground level? Many people have this same question. Here are a few things that can help explain the process:

• Powerful extraction units,
• Various-sized hoses, and
• Drying and desiccation.

Flooding of basements happens more often than many people realize. Increased pressure from the weight of waterlogged soil makes basement flooding extremely likely. Our pump trucks can remove this water, even with debris present, from your basement, cellar, or crawlspace in a very timely manner. The large extraction unit head uses a motor-driven pump to pull water out of lower levels against gravity, despite the twists and turns created by tight spaces.

Our technicians can choose from different diameter hoses, allowing them to access enclosed spaces of many finished basements. While flooding requires us to tear out saturated drywall, other fixtures contain wood sheets or panels. The extraction of water trapped within these components allows us to restore them.

One extraction unit, our InjectiDry, also doubles as a drying machine. It has the added feature of forcing heated air into small enclosed areas. Increased heat helps us remove the remaining traces of flood water from your basement. We add heaters that increase the temperature inside the space we are drying. The extra warmth gives our desiccation machines an extra boost. Depending on your home, we might use these with or without air movers, plastic tubing, and air scrubbers.
