How Long Does Water Damage Restoration Take?
The restoration process can take up to three to five days, depending on how long the home obtained the water exposure. The other half of the process is restoring a home to its former condition may take longer. But, again, depending on how badly your home has been impacted, it may be several weeks.
Preserving Basements, Cavities & Crawl Spaces
While water damage is likely to occur anywhere, areas where water can become trapped and extreme moisture can develop are especially high risk. Places like your basements and crawl spaces rarely have any exposure to light, and water is likely to stand there, developing all sorts of mold and bacteria. Because these areas are also in the heart of your property’s foundations, they can also greatly weaken the integrity of the rest of the building’s structures. Let us ensure that all water is extracted from these critical places in your home or business.
Restoration for Your Hardwood Flooring
When it comes to preserving your hardwood floors, you need a team that can act quickly and effectively. All water and moisture must be completely eradicated, or your wood will buckle, warp, or even crack and splinter. Our experts are able to completely dry out your floors as well as dehumidify the air, ensuring that there is no moisture left. In many cases, we are able to thoroughly restore the floor without requiring additional refinishing, but those who hesitate to contact us until later sometimes discover that they must add a protective refinishing layer for a completely smooth surface.
