Are you ready for spring?
Long cold winter months have forced us all to answer yes excitedly!
One side effect of melting snow can be flooding. Spring weather by nature can also produce sudden heavy rainfalls, which can hit an area hard, sometimes leading to unexpected flooding throughout entire neighborhoods. Widespread flooding can cause severe water damage to homes and businesses. Additionally, these floodwaters can contain bacteria from sewage or other unhealthy substances. Should you end up with any flooding damage to your property, cleanup should be conducted right away. Luckily, United Services has extensive experience in all types of water removal and cleanup and we're available round the clock!
Don't Wait To Repair Water Damage!
When you've suffered a flooded basement or extensive water in your home, there is an enormous amount of physical devastation that comes along with it. Ensuring that your home is properly dried out is crucial to retaining its value and minimizes the need for additional repairs.
