Water Floods Akron Convenience Store

Unfortunately, when the rain came so did the flooding for this Akron Ohio area convenience store.  Water came up through the floor drains and covered the entire area.  As you can see in the before picture it is clear looking water.  Don't let that fool you.  It is what we call Category 3 Water - Known as "black water" and is grossly unsanitary. This water contains unsanitary agents, harmful bacteria and fungi, causing severe discomfort or sickness.

This category includes water sources from sewage, seawater, rising water from rivers or streams, ground surface water or standing water.

Don't worry though, SERVPRO of SE Summit County / Lake Township has the knowledge, equipment and people to handle it.  "Like it never even happened."
