Many people have no idea how to respond to flood damage
in their home or office. Unless you live on a mountain top or in a
desert, you should always know what to do in the event of a disaster.
Living in coastal areas like Charleston, South Carolina floods can
happen for a variety of reasons. Low lying lots, multiple waterways and
poor drainage systems can all cause flood damage to your home or
business.
When your property is damaged by a flood it is important to act fast. If
you wait you risk letting the damage affect your long term health as
well as your physical property. Even if you think that the damage has
been taken care of and the hardwood floors have been mopped dry, there
are still very real health risks.
When your home or office suffers
flood damage the indoor air quality is
greatly affected. Standing water and wet materials are the perfect place
for microorganisms to breed. Viruses, bacteria and mold can all become
problem areas. They trigger allergic reactions, cause diseases and cause
residual damage to building materials.
