How do you deal with water damage?
The best way to deal with water damage to a property will depend on the type of damage caused. For example, water damage from a water feed leak is very different to dealing with water damage from a sewer or drain problems. Plus, the extent of the damage and what is affected plays an important part, as well as the scale of the damage. Water damage specialist services such as ourselves can help with the evaluation of the damage and with repairs.
How do I dry out after a water leak?
Depending on the type of water leak, size of it, length it has been running and scale of the areas affected, assisted drying is most likely required. This could include the use of industrial dehumidifiers to remove moisture and damp from the leak, supported by air movers (fans) and, especially in colder months of the year, heaters to aid the drying process. Experts such as ourselves will not only help with the drying but the monitoring of the process from start to conclusion of the job.
What materials can be damaged by water?
There are several types of material that are generally more resilient to water damage in a property (for example brick, concrete etc). However, even those can be affected by water damage, especially over a longer period of time and if the water damage causes movement in the property structure. On the flip side, some materials are fare more susceptible to water damage. This is especially the case for wood (both structural and flooring, such as laminate flooring), plasterboard (on walls and ceilings especially) and building contents too.
