Short Hills Floor Has Extensive Water Damage

A local Short Hills home had a large amount of water damage that contained solid waste. The toilet backed up and water ran down the hallway. This type of water needs handling as a biohazard due to the contaminants in raw sewage. SERVPRO techs wear protective gear and treat the water prior to removing it to lessen the biohazards. The tile floor did not show signs of seepage and since the homeowner started the cleanup efforts so rapidly, the water did not have time to run behind the baseboards or wick into the walls. After extraction and drying, the techs use their professional disinfection and biocide solutions to ensure the floor and other affected surfaces get returned to a sanitized condition.
