SERVPRO Helps Olathe Residents Deal with Flood Damage
If you notice minor flooding in your house, you might be tempted to deal with it yourself. After all, it might seem like a hassle to call out a flood remediation company for a small amount of water.
If you are wondering when to call a specialist to look at flood damage in your Olathe, KS home, the answer is “as soon as possible.” Even if you have mopped up visible water, there are still some associated flood damage risks:
- Wet materials such as carpets or wallpaper can provide a breeding ground for fungus.
- Depending on the water source, there is a risk of contaminants.
- Water can seep into walls and baseboards and cause damage to your home’s structure.
- Wall insulation may become waterlogged and need replacing.
SERVPRO trains our teams to deal with all of these issues and more. We can advise you on what to keep and what to toss away. We can also dry your home and belongings, apply microbial treatments, and deodorize your property.
