Simple accidents can cause water damage in your home.

There are many ways that water can cause you trouble within your Delta home. While aging appliances seem to top the list with causing the most significant water damages, user error has also been a substantial contributor to the likelihood of water damage as well. From a forgetful filling of a bathtub to the improper installation of a new washing machine, user error can cause many instances of damage where professional restorers are necessary to clean up the mess.

Regardless of the circumstances, water damage in your Delta home is something that you want to take care of immediately. While there are plenty of homeowners that believe that a little bit of drying is sufficient for cleanup, this is not always the case. In fact, improperly cleaning up after water damage and getting the area completely dry could cause worsening troubles for your home in the immediate future.

Our SERVPRO team has the experience and equipment to make short work of any water damage that you have in your home. Regardless of the severity of the problem that you face, our professionals can assess the extent of the damage and what needs to happen to successfully restore it. For many cases, spot extraction and drying are the primary components to the cleanup process.

With lesser volumes of water, extraction often only requires wet-vacs. Drying the area is a combined effort using both air movers and dehumidification equipment. Infrared imagery gets used to determine if the surface drying efforts took care of moisture and dampness entirely, or if further, (more invasive) equipment is necessary to complete the job.

Overcoming water damage in your home is often a job for a professional restoration team. Inadequate cleaning and drying of the damage could result in worsening structural concerns, weakening of materials used to support your home, or even compounding damages like mold and microbial growth. Give SERVPRO of Montrose / Telluride a call today and let our technicians help you clean up the mess you face. You can reach us anytime at (970) 240-6970.
