Flood Damage

11/12/2017 (Permalink)

Floods rank as one of the most common and widespread natural disasters in the United States. Whether you live near a coastline, along city streets, in the mountains, near a river or even in the desert, there is potential for suffering flood damage.

Just because you haven't experienced a flood in the past, doesn't mean you won't in the future. In fact, 20% of all claims paid by the National Flood Insurance Program were for policies in low-risk communities. On average, floods cast $3 billion in annual losses in the United States.

According to the American Red Cross, floods cause more damage in the United States every year than any other weather-relate disaster.

Even minor floods have the potential to cause major damage to a structure when not treated quickly and properly, and the cleanup is often an overwhelming task. Remember, when fire and water take control of your life, SERVPRO of Lockport/Lemont/Homer Glen will help you take it back.
