FLOOD EMERGENCY! What should you do??

Here in the Midwest (IOWA) freezing temperatures can wreak havoc in a variety of ways. Several in particular are freezing pipes that burst, sump-pump failure + melting snow along with rain=equals disaster!

If This Happens To You, What Would You Do? 

 As usual, it happens without your knowledge and at the least expected time.

There are several things that you as a homeowner can do:

1. Check your sump pump the next time it rains to make sure that it is working properly.

2. If your pipes are exposed to extreme temperatures, wrap and insulate them.

3. If you’re going out of town for a few days, turn off the water supply, at least to the wash machine, if not the main supply itself.

4. Keep your thermostat at 65 degrees or higher.

If you should have the ‘unfortunate’ happen with a Flood Emergency, here are 6 things you should IMMEDIATELY do!!

1. Don’t panic. Immediately call a professional like Commander Carpet Care for your emergency water removal and a plumber if the source of water can’t be stopped by yourself. It’s important to mention, you don’t necessarily need to call your agent or insurance company first.
Take care of the immediate situation at hand then call your agent.

2. Make sure you stop the source of water, if possible.

3. If the water level is high, turn of the main circuit breaker and unplug all appliances in the effected area then turn the breaker back on.

4. Remove anything (especially valuables and memoir) that will be effected by moisture.

5. If you own a shop vac, use it to begin removing the water. It will help to minimize the damage. Never, ever use a household vacuum cleaner to remove the water.

6. Start making a list of damaged items to turn into your adjuster. If you wait until later, you may forget something.

Remember, stay calm and don’t panic. In most cases a professional water restoration company like Commander can have your home
restored in 3-7 days completely. Put the professionals to work.

By the way, now would be a great time to check your homeowner’s policy for the type of coverage you have, the maximum amount covered under your flood policy and your deductible amount.

Commander Carpet Care Earns Coveted Angie’s List Super Service Award

Award reflects company’s consistently high level of customer service. 

Commander Carpet Care  has been awarded the prestigious 2010 Angie’s List Super Service Award, an honor bestowed annually on approximately 5 percent of all the companies rated on the nation’s leading provider of consumer reviews on local service companies. “Our Super Service Award winners are the cream of the crop when it comes to providing consistently high quality customer service, as judged by the customers who hired them,” said Angie Hicks, founder of Angie’s List.

One posting reads – “Stains.. etc, were removed, as promised. I’ve used Commander Carpet Care in the past. At the recommendation of a few of my friends, I chose to try another carpet cleaning company. All were OK..but not at the level of “excellence” that I’ve found with Commander Carpet Care. When you find something that works, stick with it. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed with this company.”
