Water Damage Removal & Restoration Cambridge, MA

ServiceMaster by Disaster Associates, Inc.

If your property is flooded as a result of violent storms and torrential rains, you can do little to restrain the devastating power of the water and prevent extensive property damage. In most other cases, however, severe water damage can be easily avoided if you take proper precautionary measures and act quickly. Whether the excessive moisture in your property is caused by leaking pipes or fixtures, malfunctioning appliances, or tiny cracks in the bottom of your bathtub or shower enclosure, have in mind that water easily penetrates any porous materials and may quickly spread throughout your home or commercial building and result in extensive structural damage and/or mold growth. So, more often than not, the minor visible water damage is just a small part of a larger problem and unless you take timely and adequate measures, water will spread quickly through absorption and will cause major damages before you know it. Call professional services at the first signs of water damage in your property to have the problem fixed and prevent further troubles. The sooner you address the problem, the quicker and more affordable the water damage restoration process will be.

What to Do in Case of Water Damage

Turn off the power supply and don’t use your electrical appliances before they have been inspected and declared to be safe;
Try to find and eliminate or repair the source of the water damage (if applicable);
Remove as much of the excess water as possible by mopping and blotting (never use your household vacuum to remove water);
Take pictures, gather relevant evidence, and preserve any broken parts that may have caused or allowed water damage to take place – you may need them for your insurance claims;
Wipe water from wood furniture and remove wet upholstery and cushions;
Remove area rugs from wet flooring;
Take valuables to a safe, dry place;
Keep water damaged books packed tightly on their shelves to prevent warping (wet books can be restored with a specialized drying process);
Open all closet and cabinet doors and drawers to speed up the drying process;
Don’t try to clean up on your own as any inadequate steps you take may cause additional damage;

Have in mind that bacteria growth in standing water may begin within hours, so immediate and adequate intervention is of paramount importance, especially in the event of sewage backup. Stay away from the contaminated water which may contain harmful viruses and bacteria and call the professional services to remove sewage water, dehumidify the premises, sanitize the entire area (as well as your personal items), and remove odor. Sewage backup cleanup and remediation should be left to the experts.
