Act Fast to Prevent Mold and Structural Issues
Water issues in your California property can be critical, whether from heavy rains, broken pipes, or household leaks. When water infiltrates your home or business, it's crucial to act quickly. The first 24 hours after water infiltration occurs are critical for preventing further problems.
Immediate Action is Key
Water damage in California doesn't wait for a convenient time to strike. Once it happens, the clock starts ticking. If water is left to stand for too long, it could seep into the walls, floors, and ceilings, leading to more severe damage. This is why it's vital to start the restoration process within 24 hours. Our team at SERVPRO® is available 24/7 to help you address water issues as soon as they occur.
Preventing Mold Growth
One of the common risks associated with delayed water restoration is microbial growth. Mold could start growing within 24 to 48 hours in damp conditions. It can cause even more damage to your property and create a more challenging cleanup process. Quick action to remove water and dry out affected areas can prevent mold from taking hold and spreading.
Avoiding Structural Damage
Water can weaken the structural integrity of a home or building. It can lead to wood rot, cause metal to rust, and cause drywall to crumble. If water infiltration is not addressed immediately, you could face costly repairs and potential safety hazards. Fast restoration minimizes these risks and helps preserve the structural stability of your property.
