Water Damage Can Take a Big Toll On Your Property

Water damage can take a big toll on your home, office, or commercial property. Water damage needs to be addressed as soon as possible, as the accumulation of water can rapidly ruin walls, including both the paint and sheetrock. Floors and floor coverings are another concern. In some instances when the water has damaged the structure of your property, walls may need to be taken down and carpets may need to be removed.  Bacteria can buildup causing an odor and mold can start growing in 24 to 48 hours after a surface has been exposed to water.  

Whether you live in a flood zone, near a river, or on the coastline, you want to make sure you have a plan in case a problem occurs. Be sure you know where the water shut offs are and prepare for storms by checking drains and ensuring your sump pump is operating properly. 

SERVPRO of Pasadena/Gibson Island/Lake Shore offers water damage restoration services including water removal, full cleanup, dry out, dehumidification and restoration of your property, including personal belongings.
