No matter how severe water loss incidents can become, we can make it, “Like it never even happened.”

Protecting Contents From Water Damage In Falmouth Homes

Homeowners can quickly become overwhelmed when even simple water loss incidents affect their Falmouth residence. Often more troublesome to property owners than the threat of water damage to their structural elements is the effect that these hazardous conditions can have on the contents and personal belongings within the house. A fast reaction to these hostile conditions can help to save these unique items, but can even save both time and money on professional restoration work that might be necessary.

No matter how severe water damage is in Falmouth properties, there are steps that homeowners can take on the scene right away that can save them from costlier restoration and repair. As much as many property owners might rely on their insurance company to recover monetary loss and fund professional restoration like our SERVPRO team can provide, many personal belongings and treasures only carry sentimental value. No dollar value can recover these losses. Here are some tips to help you:

• If the damage is excessive – affecting more than 10 square feet – you should contact professional restoration professionals like our SERVPRO team.

• After a short time, you can gain an understanding of the affected areas of your property. Begin moving at-risk contents out of these regions and to areas of your home unlikely to become affected by spreading water damage.
 
• If you must vacate the house, be sure to take what time you do have to collect sentimental items that cannot get replaced.

• If possible, shut off the supply of water to the damaged element of your property, causing the current damage. These valves often get positioned where your service line enters the property in the basement area, and can usually get spotted by their flat design, quarter turn shutdown, and colored handle.

Content management is an essential element to the full-service recovery that our SERVPRO of Upper Cape Cod and The Islands team can offer damaged homes in our area. No matter how severe water loss incidents can become, we can make it, “Like it never even happened.” Give us a call anytime at (508) 888-5985.
