Our EPA Approved Products Help Technicians Restore Homes in Boynton Beach While Protecting the Environment 

Boynton Beach is a coastal town, and like all such cities, it is subject to flooding. With the sea-level rise increasing, the risk of flooding increases as well. When that happens, contaminated floodwaters come surging into local homes. Professional water damage restoration is recommended to help clean up the damage. 

What is SERVPROXIDE? 

Floodwater is highly contaminated with any number of biohazardous materials such as bacteria, chemical waste, and dirt. It can be challenging for technicians to mitigate flood damage in Boynton Beach homes. Many factors that impact the cleaning, including: 

• Depth of the standing water
• Contaminants in the water
• Extent the residence is affected
• How quick remediation begins 

At SERVPRO, we not only want to clean the home but do it safely as well. There are times harsh chemicals may be needed, but overall, our goal is to use the best non-toxic products we can. We have chemists who produce our products and can provide insight into non-typical uses as well, which includes using SERVPROXIDE. 

SERVPROXIDE is a proprietary hospital-grade disinfectant that is EPA-registered. It is an antimicrobial that is a stabilized chlorine dioxide-based agent. We are proud to say it carries the EPA’s lowest toxicity rating. It dissipates quickly without a strong scent, making it perfect to use around those who are odor or chemical sensitive. As an antimicrobial, it is useful in cleaning surfaces impacted by floodwater.
