SERVPRO technicians extract floodwaters, discard ruined materials, and build back and disinfect your Santa Clarita home "Like it never even happened."

Flash floods can threaten Santa Clarita properties fast and be challenging to clean up.

While there are many months of mostly drier conditions for what is one of the larger cities in the world, millions of residents have also seen the ugly side of nature when rising water or flash flooding sweep into neighborhoods. As a leading flood restoration and storm response unit, our SERVPRO professionals can help get life back to normal after a disaster.

Removing Water After Flooding

Extraction tools are often much needed for flood damage to Santa Clarita properties. Some of these water removal devices can be dually impactful, eliminating the surface water and debris or muck encountered. These are called trash pumps. Wet vacuums are among the most versatile flood restoration tools in our inventory.

Muck-Out Cleaning in Santa Clarita Homes

Entering a home after natural flooding can be overwhelming for property owners, as they see portions of the house suffering several inches of debris and mud. Wet vacuums are often the critical piece of cleaning equipment here, along with shoveling or hand-picking out debris and ruined contents to bag and discard. Many of the threats after a flood includes:

• Silt
• Mud
• Organic matter
• Contaminants
• Sewage
• Chemicals

SERVPRO’s trained technicians don PPE personal protective equipment which may include respirators, masks, rubber boots, gloves, and Tyvek bodysuits. We protect ourselves and aim to prevent pathogens from affecting our customers.

Flooding is an unexpected and devastating situation for many homes, condos, and apartments around the city. Our SERVPRO of Santa Clarita Valley team is ready to mobilize quickly when you need it at (661) 296-4600.
