Immediate help was needed to clean up the water damage and he would know what to do. He recommended to contact a certified water restoration company and gave them the phone number for Soil-Away located in nearby Hooksett.
 
They anxiously called Soil-Away expecting to have to leave message with an answering machine, but were relieved to get a live person. The conversation with the Soil-Away representative quickly put them at peace and gave them hope that they would be recovering from this property disaster shortly. In fact, an emergency flood restoration crew was dispatched and on site within just 60 minutes. The family was awed because this was the middle of the night on a weekend. The crews got right to work mitigating damages in the flooded basement.

Recovering by Hiring a Certified Water Restoration Company
