Water damage can be serious if left untreated. Upon discovering water damage, it is imperative to get a professional inspection as soon as possible to assess any unnoticed damage. As water or moisture accumulates within your home, it can soak into porous materials such as drywall, wood, and flooring. Even after the moisture and water have been removed, mold will grow throughout your home to spread the damage in unseen parts, leaving you with more repairs.

To avoid having your belongings and furnishings further ruined, call Water Damage Drying Services for effective and professional water damage restoration services in Westerly, RI. Our advanced equipment guarantees the extraction of all excess water and moisture within your home or building. This will eliminate the risk of additional water damage and possible mold growth.

Burst Pipes and Sprinkler Heads

While the residents of the northeast New England area are no strangers to cold winters, the risk they pose for building materials may not always be recognized. From November to early March, frozen and burst pipes and sprinkler heads are common as the water within them freezes, expands, and applies pressure to the weakened metal. Once it has burst, water will flow freely throughout the property until treatment can take place.

When it comes to burst pipes and sprinkler heads, our technicians are experts when handling these emergency situations. Don’t be afraid to give us a call at any time.
