Whether it is your Glen Cove condo or the elevator lobby, SERVPRO applies a fogging disinfection against contamined flood waters to complete the job

Glen Cove Homeowners Needing Flood Restoration and Move-Out Services can call SERVPRO for Help.

Storms in Glen Cove can invite floodwaters into all or a part of your home. When you consider the steps to restore your home, it may be best to move out entirely while the restoration happens. 

The risk of handling a move yourself is that you may carry bacteria and debris brought in by the storm with you. Instead, make a call to a professional restoration crew and let them handle serve your home from start to finish.

Flood damage in Glen Cove needing move-out, cleanup, and sanitizing services fall within our expertise at SERVPRO. Our crew takes a systematic approach to assessing the damage, discarding unsalvageable items, and providing move-out services for your belongings. By doing things right from the beginning, you mitigate your loss and avoid future complications.
