Using Botanical Cleaners in Dried Loudon Homes

Cleaning is an essential step in recovering a Loudon home after a flood loss incident. These disasters can leave your home disheveled, combatting residues and debris, and at the mercy of odors that have moved in with the prolonged exposure to standing water. Contamination is also a potential factor depending on how the flood penetrated the residence. We have many potent cleaning products to suit the individual needs of your house following these contamination threats.

Because of how readily odors and contaminants can exist after flood damage in Loudon homes, the most potent available cleaning products often get utilized. Phenolics, quaternary compounds, and chlorine-based agents are among the strongest and most reliable for removing potential contaminants and bacteria but are not always the best choice for your property. Cutting through some misinformation about the reliability of these compounds, botanicals are becoming a favored choice in cleaning and restoration for many reasons.

  1. Botanicals Are Favorable Smells  

If there is a single gripe from homeowners and business owners about the cleaning products that are most effective for cleaning up after bacteria and other contaminants, it is the smell. Chlorine-based and phenolic cleaners have potent, harsh smells that can even be a health hazard with enough direct, prolonged exposure during application. Herbal products have a pleasant odor, making it easy for residents to stay in unaffected areas of the house if possible – even with harsh odor sensitivities.

  1. Botanicals Utilize Powerful Natural Cleaning Elements

With products that our SERVPRO team can use, such as Benefect cleaners, odors are much more pleasant without compromising the cleaning capabilities of the product. With the foundation of thyme oil, thymol, or citric acids, we can remove even challenging residues.

  1. Botanicals Are Sometimes Required 

In specific structures, the use of botanicals is not only beneficial for fast and more pleasant cleaning but has become required for the restoration process. Many government structures demand the use of botanical products, as they are a greener alternative and can allow for the continued use of a structure despite even widespread disinfection.

Cleaning is a necessary element to flood damage recovery, and often botanicals can be a wise choice for our SERVPRO of Loudon & Roane Counties team. No matter how we can help, give our professionals a call at (865) 986-3015.
