While there are many methods of preventing water damage within a home or building, there are simply too many sources to completely eliminate the chances of it happening. These sources can include one or more of the following: pipe leaks, pipe burst, sewage backup, rainstorm, flooding, leaking washing machine, dishwasher, or water heater, overflowing drains, and even more! While this kind of damage is common for many property owners, emergency treatment is still needed in order to prevent as much time and costs in additional repairs in the future. In addition, as long as moisture is present within the property, the risk for mold to develop is heightened.

Water Damage Restoration
When water affects a particular area, many porous materials, including: drywall, particleboard, paint, wood, and other surfaces will be the first to sustain the most damage; they have microscopic holes that are perfect for absorbing moisture and mold spores. But when not treated immediately, they will become discolored and warped, which can ultimately lead to permanent damage.
If the water is also contaminated with biohazards, such as sewage particles, it can be very dangerous to start the cleanup process before the professionals arrive. In order to avoid the risk for serious diseases and sicknesses, it is best to wait for the technicians to arrive.
Finally, any area that has sustained water damage is prone to have mold growth. As this fungus only needs an organic source – such as your drywall, wood, or other porous building material – and moisture, it will be able to develop and thrive at any time before restoration services.
