Intense mold growth is a serious consequence of water damage. Mold breaks down materials in nature, but inside a Santee home it damages framing and finishes while causing allergic reactions and breathing problems for occupants. Mold typically begins growing 24 to 48 hours after water exposure.
Black water contamination is the worst category of water event to recover from. It may require replacing entire sections of materials, and there's a real risk of catching infections like tetanus during cleanup if proper PPE isn't used.
Electrical damage results when water reaches outlets and appliances. Once that happens, the situation can become genuinely life-threatening for anyone in the area — only qualified professionals should respond to those scenes.
Unpleasant odor lingers long after the water is gone. Stagnant water leaves behind a strong musty smell that you can hardly mask, even with strong air fresheners. Proper drying and sanitization are the only real fix.
After a major water event, wood and other building materials absorb large amounts of water, leading to insect infestations, deterioration, and mold growth. It's important to address electrical systems, food and water sanitation, furnishings, carpets, walls, subfloors, wood floors, tile, sheet flooring, and appliances — all at once.
Because flood water is rarely clean, porous materials often must be removed and replaced rather than salvaged. EZ Plumbing USA is one of the leading water damage restoration companies in the area, and we'll guide you through what to keep and what to discard.
