Water damage is a major problem for properties because excess moisture is absorbed by the building materials and increases the risk of mold growth. Water damage weakens the materials that absorb it and causes damage to the structure of the building.
Heavy rain, flooding, burst pipes, and other plumbing issues are all potential causes of water damage, but regardless of the source, this problem should not be ignored. Left unattended, water damage will only continue to spread and weaken the building’s structural core.
RestorationMaster offers quality water damage restoration services for homes and businesses suffering from water damage in Santa Fe Springs, CA. We will remove excess moisture and standing water with our advanced water extraction and drying equipment. We will also restore or replace damaged personal belongings based on the severity of the damage.
Problems Caused by Water Damage
Water damage is considered an emergency because of how quickly it is absorbed into permeable materials, such as drywall, wood, flooring, and furniture, and spreads throughout the building. The affected furnishings and materials may warp, rot, or experience discoloration as they continue to absorb water. Excess water in drywall and wood can weaken the structure of the building and cause serious structural damage.
Mold growth is a big problem that stems from water damage because it grows in areas with heavy moisture. Mold can appear as quickly as 48 hours after the initial water damage and the longer it is unaddressed, the more likely it is to pose a threat to your health.
