What Do I Do?! -- Water Damage Tips! Remove What’s Affected

5/5/2021 (Permalink)

How much water and where the water came from helps our technicians determine if materials need to be removed or dried in place.

Oh no! Water has damaged your home! What do you do?!

Take a breath. We’re here to help.

Water can seriously affect your home or business if you do not have someone come out to remove the affected materials. ”Water will permanently damage most porous materials by shrinking or warping them, and mildew will damage them even further.” Mildew is hard to handle, and warped materials can cause more problems down the road. When our team arrives onsite, removing the necessary affected materials is their first priority if there is no standing water. Porous materials must be removed depending on the type of water that flooded your space. “Porous materials include carpet, insulation, fabric, and similar items.” 

Give our team a call. One of our office team members will talk with you to determine how we can assist you best and we will have a team onsite in no time!
