Types of Water Damage That Can Affect Your Home or Business
Water damage isn’t limited to some discolored spots on your ceiling; there are many types that can impact a house or business.
Leaks in the Building
Leaky pipes or areas in your home that cannot block excess moisture can lead to much larger problems in the future.
Leaks could seep into the floors, which is especially detrimental to hardwood and carpet flooring. They could also weaken your ceilings or other structural parts of your house or building.
The biggest danger of leaks is mold growth.
Flooding
If a pipe bursts, or if there is a major storm (as there often is in Florida), your home or business could flood. Even once the water is cleared, there is likely to be significant damage to floors, walls, ceilings, furniture, and any items left behind in the flood.
Post Fire
Why would a fire lead to water damage? Not the fire itself, but the hoses and water sources most often used to put out a fire can cause a lot of damage. These devices are incredibly powerful and put out a lot of water in very little time.
After the immediate aftermath of a fire, make sure you are prepared to check for water impact.
What to Do When You Detect Water Damage
There is no one true way to handle these situations. Try to encourage good ventilation of the area, perhaps by opening windows and doors or placing fans strategically. Check for mold if you can, but if it is too dangerous, wait for the experts.
