Emergency Flood Cleanup – Nashua NH

During the winter months, home and business owners in Nashua, New Hampshire (NH) are experiencing frigid temperatures, shoveling endless piles of snow, and let’s not forget the occasional power outage that leads to eating peanut butter sandwiches and huddling around the woodstove to keep warm. With all the great, and not so great, things that this this time of year brings, what isn’t often thought of is  emergency flood cleanup. I mean, how can a home or business flood when the ground is blanketed with ice or snow accumulations so high that the occasional small dog gets lost (unless you’re like my mom who puts brightly colored sweaters on her teacup Chihuahuas specifically for this reason).
Emergency flood cleanup may not be on your mind this winter, so your friends at Soil-Away are here to remind you that flood damage can occur at any time of the year, especially during the winter months when ice and snow builds-up in your gutters or around the structure’s foundation. In the event that your home or business experiences an emergency flood situation this season, contact the flood cleanup and remediation experts at Soil-Away-a family-owned and operated business with 25 years of flood cleanup experience. We will work together with you and your insurance company to ensure a smooth and quick clean-up process, so you and your family can get back to things that matter.

Common Causes of Flood Damage

Aside from your child throwing their toys down the toilet and causing a clogged or burst pipe, or your dishwasher deciding that the night before Thanksgiving, a pipe was going to burst and flood the kitchen, what else causes a home or business to flood? A few other common causes of flood damage are:

• Cracks or holes in walls or foundation
• Broken or cracked water lines
• Leaking washing machine hose
• Sewer backups
• Gutter or downspout clogs or breakages due to debris, ice or snow
• Defective window wells
• Broken or defective appliances
• Overflow of ground water
• Ice dams (snow accumulation that forms large icicles on the edges of roofs)
• Frozen pipes that cause them to break or burst
• Running toilets
• HVAC failure
• Roof leaks
