As residents clean up in the aftermath of Tropical Storm Debby, many more Americans can anticipate flooding and damage during this year’s hurricane season. HouseLogic.com, the award-winning comprehensive Web site for home owners from the National Association of REALTORS®, offers valuable resources and information to help residents clean up after floods. You should find a good water damage restoration minneapolis company that has the necessary equipment and knowledge to deal with any damage to your property.

“The damage from natural disasters like floods and hurricanes not only affects individual families but also entire communities,” said NAR President Moe Veissi, broker-owner of Veissi & Associates Inc., in Miami. “As my fellow Floridians recover from the flooding that accompanied this latest storm, HouseLogic hopes to help homeowners across the country prepare and protect their homes and families throughout this hurricane season.” Calling a professional water damage company such as Prime Flood Damage Restoration immediately after a flood is the best way to mitigate the potential damage a flood might do to your property.

Much of the country’s hurricane-related flooding typically occurs along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. According to the NAR’s most recent data on existing-home sales, more than half of recent home purchases were in the Northeast and the South. Vacation home buyers are also attracted to those areas. According to NAR’s 2012 Investment and Vacation Home Survey, 42 percent of vacation homes purchased last year were in the South and 15 percent were in the Northeast. But flooding doesn’t just follow hurricanes, and it occurs in every part of the country due to events such as storms and rising rivers that can potentially cause water damage. Storms may also cause roofing damages that may require professional roof repair services.

According to Ultimate Restoration Charlotte, HouseLogic visitors can use the Flood Cleanup Guide for helpful articles like “What to Do in the First 24 Hours After a Flood,” “Flood Cleanup Kits Prepare You for High Tides,” and “Water Damage: 8 Ways to Dry Out and Move On.” The site also provides advice on how to determine what items might be salvageable; they also provide a list of water damage restoration companies in case you need to contact one. The best one available is Water Damage Mentor.
