Monsoon Seasons with SERVPRO of Gilbert/Chandler South/Ahwatukee and South Tempe

1/16/2024 (Permalink)

During Summer there are usually some severe weather changes that occur. Between June and September, Arizona is subject to the monsoon season. These periods can be particularly arduous for homeowners as heavy rainfall alongside strong thunderstorms can expose any structural weaknesses that have gone unnoticed. We operate an emergency response unit during this time of year to help the community with losses resulting from flash flooding, storm damages or other personal property harm.

Our technicians are capable of performing necessary mitigation to limit the amount of damage and employ restorative measures using appropriate equipment to assist with the drying out process. As a restorer, one of our primary duties is to enter a property after damages and perform timely remediation task that can significantly limit losses. Strong winds can tear off roofs requiring fast service to cover the damage that is presented within the home. We're Faster To Any Size Disaster; this means we can mitigate water and wind damage from punctured roofs.

A flash flood, for example, can result in power lines being shut-off at the source. We are capable of restoring the power to property or bringing in a temporary generator to allow contractors to perform remodeling or rebuilding works. SERVPRO can also conduct a thorough risk assessment, noting potential hazards, checking the strength of floors and staircases to make sure there is a safe workspace for anyone entering the property.

It is also during this initial inspection that we carry out some of our most important tasks designed to mitigate loss. Standing water causes more damage the longer it is allowed to sit. We can perform timely water removal services using gas-pumps, extraction units, and advanced drying methods to ensure the prevention of permanent losses.

In the right conditions, microbes present in water can quickly result in the proliferation of mold colonies. Our job is to ensure that does not happen by controlling humidity levels, drying the property and then treating it with anti-microbial chemicals, biocides or sanitizers. SERVPRO act quickly to carry out these tasks because they can lead to a significant reduction in property damages during the monsoon season.

Our emergency response units are available round the clock for emergency services during any Monsoon season. Contact SERVPRO of Gilbert/Chandler South/Ahwatukee and South Tempe at (480) 558-7620 anytime, twenty-four hours a day.
