Sanitation and Storm Damage Restoration Services for Hamilton Homes

Inclement weather throughout the year can lead to significant water intrusion and property damage, especially when homes take the brunt of flooding, roof leaks, or wind-driven rain. At AdvantaClean of Fairfield and Mason, we provide storm damage cleanup with a focus on disinfection and odor control, as well as water removal for Hamilton area homes. From flooded basements to waterlogged walls, our team restores both structure and indoor air quality safely and thoroughly. 

How Stormwater Damage Causes Odors 

Odors from stormwater intrusion are often a sign of bacterial activity, which is a common side effect of this type of water damage. Stormwater can carry organic matter and microorganisms that spread across the flooring, into insulation, and behind walls. As this microbial load breaks down, it produces organic compounds responsible for lingering odors. Without disinfection, these particles stay embedded in porous materials like drywall, carpeting, and wood and create persistent smells long after surfaces appear dry. The professional intervention takes this into account during restoration to remediate the conditions necessary for these bacteria to thrive and can thoroughly address storm-related odors and microbes. 

Professional Tools: Remediate Odors and Bacteria 

When we respond to storm damage, our team follows IICRC protocols while using personal protective equipment (PPE) and containment methods to avoid cross-contamination. Our WRT-certified technicians handle contaminated water and debris with care, using air scrubbers with HEPA filtration to reduce airborne particulates and establishing designated clean zones for equipment to further reduce accidental spread. For odor control, we apply ultra-low volume (ULV) fogging—atomizing disinfectants into microscopic, water-based droplets that reach into hidden spaces and neutralize odor-causing bacteria without soaking materials further.

Structural Water Restoration Works in Tandem with Sanitation and Malodor Mitigation 

Our team uses a diverse set of tools and practices in accordance with restoration industry guidelines and best practices to provide thorough stormwater cleanup that addresses these concerns at the root. These include:

  • Water extraction with pumps, portable extractors, and weighted vacuums can remove standing water and reduce saturation in floors and walls. Injectidry systems can force air into wall cavities and other hard-to-reach areas during the drying process. 

  • Drying equipment like axial air movers and low-grain refrigerant (LGR) dehumidifiers pull moisture from the air and building materials. Dehumidifiers isolate the water from this moist air and expel warm, dry air that air movers then circulate to create gradual drying that is effective at safely lowering moisture while minimizing the likelihood of potential secondary damages. 

  • Tools like thermal imaging cameras and pin and pinless moisture meters are used to identify wet zones inside cavities, under flooring, or behind baseboards. 

  • ULV fogging followed by targeted antimicrobial application to sanitize structural components and deodorize affected rooms work in concert to address both broad-spectrum water odors and specific areas affected by odor-causing bacteria.

Our storm damage cleanup process focuses on restoring your home's air quality and structural safety with professional sanitation and deodorizing treatments, as well as water removal.
