Storm surge flooding during hurricanes is a serious threat. Storm surge is one of the most important stats a meteorologist uses to predict how much damage might occur in a hurricane. This is the height they expect the tide will rise above the normal high tide. Storm surge has caused severe damage in New York City, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, & Rhode Island.

Recent years have seen an increase in flooding from slow-moving storms that drop a tremendous amount of rain. These storms are capable of causing millions of dollars of damage and have caused more property damage in recent years than storm surge because slow-moving storms can cause more damage to larger areas. Sometimes, an area may receive more rain in 48 hours than it does in a month. Extreme rainfall can cause overflow flooding in low-lying areas, storm drains, and rivers.

SERVPRO is ready for any extreme weather event. We are dedicated to providing full restoration services, including construction and remediation, as well as the best possible response to the event's immediate aftermath.
