When a thunderstorm arrives it is not uncommon for a flash flood to occur. The basement of your home or the showroom of your dealership fills with water it is understandable to think extraction first. 

However, the first priority should always be safety. Here are some steps to take to ensure health and safety: 

Reduce Additional Risks: Electricity can cause additional dangers with floods. If the power has gone out, and there’s standing water, you might be at risk for fire. Reach the fuse box and turn off the main power line, if it is safe to do. 

Avoid Contact With The Water: Floodwaters may appear clean. However, they could be contaminated with bacteria, sewage, or household chemicals that can be harmful. If you must enter the damaged area, use proper protective gear. 

Begin Cleanup & Mitigation: When storms damage your commercial or residential property the best thing to do is to call water remediation experts. 


SERVPRO of Foxborough is available 24/7 including holidays and weekends to assist you with your mold disaster needs to get it back to “Like it never even happened.”
