Water Damage 101

If you’re reading this, it’s likely that you have experienced water damage at your residence. If so, then you are not alone! In fact, as many as 50% of homeowners in the US suffer some type of property damage caused by water each and every year. At SERVPRO® of Madison, Rockcastle, Garrard, & Lincoln Counties, we understand the importance of this problem and are here to help.

The following will provide an overview of what causes water damage and how our team can help with cleanup after water damage inhabits their property from a flooded basement.

Water damage can be caused by a variety of things, including leaks, burst pipes, floods, and storms. 

Water can cause a lot of damage to your home, mainly because of the water’s ability to absorb into walls and insulation. When water stays in contact with wallboard or insulation for several hours, it can destroy the materials used to construct build-outs and interior walls as well as damage electrical systems. Our technicians have the equipment and training to keep moisture away from your belongings as they work quickly to remove all traces of water and dry out your home with high-efficiency dehumidifiers.
