SERVPRO Technicians use Advance Water Cleanup Technology to Restore Flooring in Telluride
When a water intrusion occurs in a home, damaged flooring is one of the more common problems. Burst pipes can cause water to pour out into the kitchen and nearby areas. This can cause water damage to hardwood floors.
What Happens When Hardwood Floors Get Wet?
To save your flooring, you need to get professional water cleanup help in Telluride immediately. The longer the water is absorbed, the worse the damage to flooring material. When the moisture level goes above what is acceptable for hardwood floors, typically around 10%, the damage begins. This can lead to:
- Distorted planks
- Buckling
- Cupping
- Crowning
- Damaged subflooring
Restoring Hardwood Floors
Our Green Team can restore the flooring if prompt action is taken. They use special floor mats in combination with truck-mounted extractors to pull moisture from several layers. The floor then gets appropriately dried. Other services used in water cleanup include:
