Water damage has many causes, from leaks and floods to the effects of water used to douse a fire. While water damage can take many forms, it's possible for its effects to be removed, or at least lessened, but the process has to start fast. Here's why you shouldn't delay calling a water damage restoration service if you've had some sort of flooding or saturation problem.
Mildew and mold can start forming very quickly, and they aren't always immediately visible. When you have water damage, it's a race to get rid of its effects before mold can start growing. According to ComfyLiving, mold can begin forming in as little as 24 to 48 hours after the damaging event occurs. You have to assume mold could become an issue right away, which means you need to have the water damage restoration process begin immediately.
Some water damage can be very difficult to remediate when it's new, and it only gets harder to remove as the water dries and the stains set. Calling a restoration service immediately gives them a better chance of restoring an item and removing all traces of moisture. For delicate items that will likely be permanently affected, such as photos, calling the service immediately is even more important.
Another risk of water damage in a home is that it can tamper with the electrical wiring. Smaller incidents like an overflowing sink might not pose this risk, but large amounts of moisture from an extensive leak could impact the wiring, making the home's outlets dangerous to use. When the restoration service checks out the aftermath, they can evaluate whether the wiring was harmed and make suggestions for repairs.
After a flood or leak, or even after sprinklers have gone off to handle a kitchen fire, you need to call a water damage restoration service. While it's natural to hesitate while you process what's happened to your home, it's important to take action promptly and get to work immediately to fix the problem before the damage becomes permanent.
