Effects of Water Damage

Within minutes of flooding on your property, belongings and structures can be damaged. The longer water and moisture sits, the faster more harmful effects take place. A moist, humid atmosphere provides the best place for mold and other harmful bacteria to grow and thrive. As a result, sickness and disease become easier to catch and a more in-depth restoration process must be taken to remediate the situation. Don’t let the effects of your flood damage grow into a more harmful state. Call the professionals at Louisiana RESCON today. We are ready and waiting 24 hours a day and provide an emergency service to ensure a quick and easy recovery from your water damage loss.

Steps To Take In Water Damage Disasters

Immediate action is vital when you are facing water damage. Follow these three steps to kick-start your water restoration.

1. Stop the source of the water flow –  The first thing you need to do after discovering water leaks, broken or burst frozen pipes, or other destructive water flow is in your home or business is to locate and turn off the water source. The more water that gathers, the worse the damage. Direct an outside flow of water away from the property if you can, and turn off any internal water valves that could be releasing water.
2. Call in the experts immediately – When it comes to water damage, do not wait to bring in professionals. A professional restoration team has the training and education needed to limit the amount of damage and remedy the problem faster. Where there is water damage, mold contamination is sure to follow. Don’t let your disaster become an even bigger, more expensive problem. Call someone immediately.
3. Remove your belongings from the affected space – Relocating your belongings and small, movable furniture to a dry space can help save you a lot of money. If you can safely do this, do it. If not, wait for a professional team to come in and help. Many items that seem like they can’t be saved actually can be. You just may not know it. Remember, your safety should be your primary concern. Don’t stand on water saturated carpet or in flooded areas if your electricity is still on.
