Flooded Vehicles
We have cleaned many types of vehicles that have been in rivers, fords, sewage floods and just flooded due to leaking windscreens or incorrectly fitted or perished seals. We have even cleaned a vehicle that has been immersed in sea water, even though most Insurance companies write these off.
To effectively clean the vehicle, the interior carpets need to be removed and cleaned. Underneath the carpets, are two types of soundproofing, a matted material shown on the left of this picture, and a thick compact foam that holds an immense amount of water on the right.
This sound proofing has to be removed, cleaned and dried. Some older types of matted material can often disintegrate when cleaned, so we just replace it with new ( Always in stock).
For us to carry out this operation we would need your car for a minimum of 36 hours. The carpets, soundproofing and all interior paint work would be cleaned with a Bio Enzyme treatment to kill off any bacteria they will have formed in the stagnant water.
When Southsea flooded with sewage from the drains 10 years ago, we successfully cleaned 30 cars over a period of one month.
