Causes of Flood Damage

Water damage takes many forms and can harm even the most prepared business or homeowner. Assorted water damage causes require appropriate answers. Regardless of the cause or amount of water damage in your business, Paul Davis Emergency Services work fast and efficiently. Continue for more about several of the most frequent types of water damage here:

Severe Storms

Severe weather can put any building's integrity on trial. If storms become serious, water becomes a destructive force. Be it a flood, hurricane, or winter storm, if water harms your home or business, it's a serious problem. No one can be ready for a problem like this, but if something goes wrong, you can depend on us.

Flooding in the Basement

Cellars attract lots of runoff water, whether from rain, a leaky roof, a broken sump pump, or any other source. It only takes a single break in the foundation for water to flow in. Paul Davis professionals are highly qualified to eliminate water from basements, clean and preserve your home goods, and dry everything effectively to lessen the damage. We don't stop until we have confirmed that the work is complete.

Problems from Sewer Leaks

Sewer back up is not only repellent, it's a health concern. Black or grey water contamination carries toxins that can lead to serious illness. Backup from sewer clogs can be considered an emergency and should be handled immediately. Qualified Paul Davis technicians inspect and eliminate the damage from the backup and all standing water damage may have happened. Our tools and years of training can fix the hazard with efficiency and speed.

Damaged Plumbing & Appliance Leaks

If a faucet, bathtub, washing machine or other appliance breaks, the outcome can vary from annoying to hazardous. Standing water left on the floor can seep into the foundation, and pool in out of reach places. You then cause wood damage and harbor a mold infestation. If your water damage starts from sewage or kitchen malfunction, you additionally risk fostering illnesses. Have an emergency professional investigate the situation to prevent additional expenses later on.

Firefighting Runoff

It's terrible enough for a home or business to sustain fire damage, but it's even worse to be stuck with water damage after the fire. In the process of extinguishing an indoor fire, your home or business can be left soaked. Such a one-two punch of home damage can leave your area ruined. Paul Davis Emergency Services has the training to eliminate all fire or water damage left.
