Causes of Water Damage

Water damage happens in several various ways and can hit even the most organized business or homeowner. Assorted flood damage scenarios deserve appropriate treatments. Regardless of the origin or size of flood damage in your home, Paul Davis Emergency Services act quickly and efficiently. These are some of the most typical reasons for water damage:

Natural Causes

Bad storms will put any building's integrity on trial. If weather gets serious, water becomes a destructive element. Be it a flash flood, tornado, or blizzard, if water harms your home or business, it becomes a serious issue. No one can be prepared for a problem like this, but if issues occur, you'll have our help.

Basement Flooding

Underground rooms are magnets for runoff water, whether from rain, a leaky roof, a malfunctioning sump pump, or some other source. It just takes one ding in the cellar for moisture to invade. Paul Davis specialists are highly qualified to remove water from cellars, clean and restore your home goods, and dry everything effectively to minimize damage. We don't stop until we have confirmed that the job is done.

Sewer Leaks & Malfunctions

Sewer back up is not just repellent, it's a health concern. Black or grey water pollution spreads microbes that can lead to infection. Flooding caused by sewer clogs should be designated as a crisis and be handled right away. Trained Paul Davis technicians evaluate and remove the damage from the sewage and all standing water damage may have happened. Our technology and years of education can solve the hazard with safety and quality.

Appliance Malfunctions & Damaged Pipes

If your sink, bathtub, washing machine or any other appliance leaks, the outcome can vary from irritating to devastating. Standing water left on the floor can drain into the foundation, and pool in hard-to-reach areas. You may cause wood damage and harbor a mold invasion. If your water damage comes from toilet or dishwasher malfunction, you additionally risk fostering microbes. Have an emergency professional inspect the area to prevent more expenses down the road.

Firefighting Runoff

It's bad enough for your home to sustain fire damage, but it's worse to be stuck with water damage in the days after the fire. In the process of extinguishing a home fire, your property can be left soaked. This one-two punch of severe damage can leave your area ruined. Paul Davis Emergency Services has the training to remove all fire or water damage remaining.
