What is meant by Water Damage?

When water is allowed to permeate into building materials through plumbing leakage, weather storms, cracks in the exterior, firefighting, etc., it causes a lot of destruction. The damage could be in the form of the growth of mold, fungus, toxins, rotting of wood, corrosion of metal, delamination of laminated surfaces, swelling of composite wood materials, etc. 

Sometimes the water damage is immediately visible, and corrective action can be taken quickly in this case. For instance, the water can be directly pumped out in firefighting or flooding before it can seep into the materials.

But at other times, the disrepair evolves over a more extended period, which can be most destructive as the water is absorbed into the material, which can be tricky to flush out. This could happen in the case of a leaking pipe behind a wall, and the water leakage could go undetected for a long time. Only after the water has been absorbed through the various layers of the wall a water spot might appear on the paint surface, indicating a water leak.

How is water damage restoration work done?

Water damage restoration is often preceded by assessing the loss incurred and evaluating the items affected. First, the water-impaired area is examined with sensor-laced equipment like probes, infrared tools, etc., to detect the root cause of the damage and the extent of the area affected by it. 

Exigency mitigation services are the first order of business in such a situation, and this includes:

  1. The source of water leakage needs to be controlled (shut down)
  2. Removing every bit of non-salvageable material out of the premises.
  3. Extracting the water by using pumps or simply mopping it up, and
  4. Pre-cleaning of the affected materials.

The restoration work would begin after this and involve:

  • Ensuring that the structure is completely dried off.
  • Stabilizing or reinforcing any damaged building section that might collapse or break.
  • Sanitizing the affected area to minimize contamination.
  • Deodorizing the facility to remove any pungent odors. 

Water damage restoration machinery used to help the restoration work includes air movers, dehumidifiers, air scrubbers, wooden flooring, and sub floor drying equipment. These are left on the property for a few days to help circulate air, dry out the moisture, and maintain the correct humidity levels of the house.

If the moisture content of the affected areas rises above 15%, it can lead to the multiplication of microbial activity, which, if left unchecked, will lead to a fungal/toxin buildup. This can be hazardous for human health and could lead to the shutting down of the property.

To some extent, water damage restoration works can be done by homeowners themselves or by property management teams. 

But the water damage restoration professionals use psychometrics to evaluate and analyze the water damage, which requires specialized equipment and training. So it is best to get in touch with one such company to ensure a thorough job is done.
