Causes of Water Damage

Water damage takes many forms and can harm even the most prepared business or home. Different flood damage causes need appropriate treatments. Regardless of the cause or scale of flood damage in your home, Paul Davis Emergency Services respond fast and effectively. Continue for more about some of the most typical causes of flood damage below:

Severe Storms

Severe weather will put any building's foundation on trial. When weather becomes intense, water becomes a destructive force. Be it a flash flood, hurricane, or winter storm, if water harms your home or business, it's a serious matter. Nobody is ready for every scenario, but if water damage strikes, our help is available.

Cellar Flooding

Cellars are a target for runoff water, be it from rain, roof damage, a broken sump pump, or other sources. It only takes a single ding in the cellar for water to invade. Paul Davis specialists are highly trained to eliminate water from cellars, sanitize and preserve your possessions, and dry everything effectively to lessen the damage. Our team doesn't rest until we verify that the job is complete.

Sewage Leaks & Malfunctions

Sewage flooding is not only repellent, it's dangerous. Black or grey water pollution carries microbes that may result in serious illness. Flooding from sewer clogs should be designated as an emergency and be handled right away. Qualified Paul Davis technicians comb through and eliminate the damage from the source and any standing water damage may have occurred. Our equipment and specialized education can eliminate the hazard with safety and speed.

Broken Plumbing & Appliance Malfunctions

If your faucet, bathtub, washing machine or any other appliance floods, the outcome can vary from bothersome to devastating. Stagnant water on the floor can seep into the foundation, and pool in hard-to-reach places. You then cause floor damage and invite a mold invasion. If your water damage results from toilet or kitchen overflow, you additionally risk fostering microbes. Have a specialist inspect the area to avoid larger costs down the road.

Firefighting Runoff

It's tragic enough for your property to sustain fire damage, but it's worse to be left with water damage in the days after the fire. In the steps of killing an indoor fire, your home or business may be left soaked. Such a one-two punch of severe damage can leave your space ruined. Paul Davis Emergency Services has the expertise to eliminate any fire or water damage remaining.
