Be Safe During Flooding, call SERVPRO of The Beaches/Ponte Vedra if you Experience Flood Damage, 904-246-6118.

Summer Storms are coming soon, and SERVPRO of The Beaches/Ponte Vedra wants you to be safe.

Floods are the most common, widespread disasters in the United States. Whether your home or business is near a coastline, along city streets, in the mountains, near a river or even out in the desert -there is always potential for flood damage. Floodsmart.gov reports that in the last 5 years, all 50 states have experienced floods or flash floods. Just because you haven't experienced a flood in the past, does not mean you never will. 20% of flood insurance claims come from low-risk or no-risk areas (floodsmart.gov). On average, floods cost $3.5 billion in annual losses in the United States.

According to the American Red Cross (ARC), floods cause more damage in the US every year than any other type of disaster. 

-Stay away from flood waters. If the water is up above your ankles, "turn around, don't drown." 

-If you approach a flooded road while driving, turn around and go the other way. If you get caught on a flooded road and water is rising quickly around you, get out of the car and go the higher ground as fast as you can.

-KEEP CHILDREN OUT OF THE WATER!

If a flood does strike your home or business in Atlantic Beach, Neptune Beach, Ponte Vedra Beach, or Jacksonville Beach contact SERVPRO of The Beaches/Ponte Vedra at 904-246-6118. Even a few inches of water have the potential to cause major damage to any structure.
