Putnam Valley Cleanup and Restoration

Preparing Your Putnam Valley Home After Fire Damage or Water Damage 

Putnam Valley, NY, has built a reputation as the “Town of Lakes” because of its numerous lakeside communities, clustered around waterbodies such as Oscawana Lake, Roaring Brook Lake, and Lake Peekskill. The town’s unique geography, including the lakes, rugged hills, and valleys, is attributed to retreating glaciers. Before modern refrigeration, Putnam Valley’s numerous lakes were ideal for ice harvesting, providing a valuable alternative source of income for local farmers. Notable sites in the area include the Tompkins Corners Cultural Center, housed in a former church, the Granite Mountain Preserve, and the Putnam Valley Historical Society.

Re-entering Your Home after Fire Damage   

Before returning to your house after a fire incident, you must take steps to avoid various potential risks. Depending on the intensity, you may be dealing with an unstable structure that has fallen debris and exposed hazardous materials. Fires also create openings that can allow vandals in. When SERVPRO® inspects your home, we can recommend safety measures to help protect your property. 

Steps You Can Take to Ensure Safety 

• Sealing openings with boards or tarps 
• Purifying the air to remove suspended particulates and aerosols 
• Containing hazards like sharp objects and dangerous materials 

Ensuring a Comfortable Stay after Water Damage 

Once water leaks into a home, discomfort or hazardous conditions can thrive— unpleasant odors and mold contamination are common outcomes, making it uncomfortable to stay indoors. SERVPRO crews ensure your home is thoroughly dried, especially in areas with carpet, to eliminate odors and prevent microbial contamination. 

SERVPRO can help you return to your life after fire or water damage.
