Water Damage Restoration and Mitigation

Water damage is a severe issue affecting homes and businesses. Immediate intervention is crucial to restore the property and minimize the extent of the damage. Water Damage Restoration and Mitigation involves a comprehensive process to address both the visible and hidden effects of water damage.

What Does Water Damage Include?

Water damage encompasses a wide range of issues resulting from exposure to water or other liquids. Common types of water damage include:

  • Standing or Excess Water: Prolonged accumulation of water, caused by flooding, appliance leaks, or burst pipes.
  • Pipe Bursts: Sudden rupture of water pipes, resulting in a significant release of water into the affected area.
  • Roof Leaks: Damage to the roof’s structure or covering, allowing water to penetrate into the interior of the property.
  • Groundwater Seepage: Percolation of water from the surrounding soil into the property’s foundation or basement.
  • Sewage Backups: Failure of the sewage system, causing untreated waste to flow into the property.
  • Mold and Mildew Growth: Prolonged exposure to moisture creates a conducive environment for mold and mildew to thrive.
  • Structural Damage:
    • Warped or Damaged Walls and Floors
    • Weakened or Dislodged Foundations
    • Compromised Structural Integrity
