Help is at Hand

If you are one of the thousands whose home or business was recently flooded, we at Tapco HomeDry Services are fully aware of the stress and trauma that it and the sometimes long drawn out process of getting your property back to normal, causes. There are very few things worse than being flooded and the aftermath of disruption and the damage to your property can cause psychological effects that are well documented. It has been estimated that the total cost of the damage caused by the 2007 floods was £3 billion and the total number of claims exceeded 60,000.

It is generally agreed that no amount of flood defences can guarantee flooding will not occur and therefore it is very important that the repairs you undertake now will result in less disruption, if unfortunately this ever happens to your property again. Tapco HomeDry Services have been dealing with all aspects of damp proofing since 1971 and are experts in the field of damp prevention. Although we can’t stop the flood water from rising, the special materials and methods we use will mean that the plaster and the concrete floors wont have to be removed again and the drying of the property can be started immediately the water has subsided.

It maybe that you have just experienced flooding from another source like a burst water main or leaking plumbing either of which can also cause severe damage. Whatever the reason you should contact your insurance company and immediately call us to arrange a survey.

Tapco - Specialists

Flood recovery is a highly specialised discipline and should only be carried out by specialists like ourselves. What is often lacking is any differentiation between qualified damp specialists and general building trades. This blurring line between builder and specialist not only allows inappropriate work to go unnoticed but also opens the door to inadequate repairs, adding further distress and heartbreak for you the flood victim. We at Tapco HomeDry Services will liaise directly with your insurance company and other agents and we will carry out every aspect of the work to get you back to normal as soon as possible. We have many very happy clients who are already living a normal life back at ‘home’ and there is no reason why you can’t join them.
