Do You Need Water Damage Restoration for a Farmington Home?

Homeowners often wait a few days after a water leak or major spill, thinking the water will evaporate and everything will return to normal. Porous materials absorb water and swell, often causing permanent damage. Even hardwood floors can be permanently damaged.

SERVPRO recommends that our clients call us immediately to avoid more expensive water damage restoration in Farmington homes. Water clean-up removes all of the surface water and water that has penetrated cavities. Also, we use drying mats, air movers, and dehumidifiers to remove any moisture that may cause swelling, warping, and buckling of flooring materials.

The effects of more prolonged water exposure on various materials can significantly increase the cost of water damage restoration.

For example:

• Drywall easily absorbs water, swells and must be replaced
• Wood flooring is slower to absorb moisture; however, it can warp and buckle, causing cupping and crowning
• Water-soluble glues holding particleboard and plywood together can dissolve, causing delamination or disintegration
• Mold infestations can occur in 24 hours with the right conditions

SERVPRO responds in four hours or less to help our clients avoid these issues.
