You Have 24 Hours to Stop Water Damage!

When water remains stagnant or isn’t thoroughly dried, it poses significant risks to your property’s structure. If water sits for more than 24-48 hours, it can weaken building materials and compromise structural integrity. Furthermore, standing water creates a conducive environment for mold growth, which not only causes additional damage but also presents health hazards, especially in the form of respiratory issues and allergies, if not addressed within this critical time frame.

It’s important to initiate a damage assessment and restoration process

It is crucial to address water damage promptly and effectively to safeguard your home’s health and hygiene. Water that remains stagnant for over 24-48 hours becomes a breeding ground for harmful bacteria and pathogens, making it unsafe and unsanitary. To prevent these serious risks, it’s important to initiate a damage assessment and restoration process immediately after experiencing water-related issues, ideally within the first 24 hours. Don’t delay; contact us immediately for a swift and professional response to your water damage concerns.

Immediate response is crucial to minimize damage. Ideally, you should contact a water damage restoration service within 24-48 hours.

Yes, untreated water damage can lead to mold growth, structural issues, and can exacerbate existing problems like rot.

It depends on your policy and the cause of the damage. Generally, sudden and accidental damage is covered, but gradual damage or flooding often is not.

The timeline varies depending on the extent of damage, but typically it can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks.

It depends on the severity of the damage. For minor repairs, you might be able to stay, but extensive damage may require temporary relocation.
