A Few Negative Effects of Water Leaks

• Growth of mold and mildew                              
• Damaged appliances and structural wiring
• Stains

A huge problem that can occur due to water damage is the rampant growth of mold. Water leads to the spreading of mold and mildew, which not only harm your home's structural integrity but also can have some health effects. You may try to cover up the musty odor caused by mold, but the only way you can get rid of it for good is by dealing with the root cause, which is the moisture. Our SERVPRO team dries your property and uses deodorization chemicals that completely clear the smell.

The structural damage that occurs depends on the amount of water within the affected area. The damage can happen to all types of flooring, with signs like splitting, warping, or cracking as water seeps through. Our SERVPRO technicians have the right equipment to remove water from such places and ensure the area is completely dry.

You should not ignore water damage at your home because it continues to worsen. Exposure to moisture causes discoloration on the walls and ceilings, leading to staining. Our team will also help with this.
