Flood Damage in Pocahontas Arkansas

10/31/2017 (Permalink)

In May of this year Pocahontas suffered another flood damage that affected many commercial buildings and homes. SERVPRO of Jonesboro was very grateful to be asked by many in this community to assist them in the cleanup efforts. Some of our projects included the Pocahontas Housing Authority, Dollar Tree, Verizon, CATO, Black River Area Transit Center and Great Harvest Church plus many homes within and outside the city of Pocahontas. This was made possible by great assistance and resources of the SERVPRO Extreme Team out of Fort Collins, CO. Together we accomplished 100 apartments for the Pocahontas Housing Authority among all the other jobs mentioned. With SERVPRO, our resources are not limited to only our local office in Jonesboro. We had a Semi Trailer, service vehicles and box trucks on the ground in no time to assist with the cleanup efforts.

Flood cleanup is challenging for all of those affected. There are many factors to determine coverage for each structure and even when coverage is available the limits of flood policies are often discovered. We had to work closely with both commercial and residential clients to ensure that all parties were aware of what needed to take place coupled with the limits of their flood policy. Our primary goal was health and safety of both our client and our employees. Flood water is referred to as CAT 3 which is grossly contaminated water. All porous materials that come in contact with CAT 3 water should be removed and discarded.

Thank you Pocahontas for allowing SERVPRO of Jonesboro and our SERVPRO Extreme Team to assist you during this traumatizing event. We are always Here to Help. SERVPRO of Jonesboro can be reached at 870-934-0501 or by visiting our website at www.SERVPROjonesboro.com
