Water Damage Restoration, Scottsdale, AZ
Water is a common cause of property damage in homes and businesses because of how it can affect a property. Water damage is likely to occur when there is flooding or heavy rain, and it can happen if there is a water leak, plumbing issues, appliance malfunction, burst pipe, or sewage backup. Any amount of water can lead to damage because it gets absorbed in porous building materials and furnishings. This allows the water to spread throughout the property and cause damage to the affected materials. If the water is not removed, it will continue to spread and lead to serious issues like structural damage and mold growth.

Our technicians can remove any amount of water using advanced extraction and drying equipment and ensure that the damage is restored. We can also address mold growth that occurred from the water damage.
Problems Caused by Water Damage
Excess water and flooding is dangerous within a home or building because of how it spreads and causes damage. Water spreads so quickly because many building materials are porous, including drywall, insulation, wood, flooring, and furniture. As these materials absorb more water, they can become stained
and warped. Excessive water damage to materials like wood and drywall can lead to serious structural damage as these materials weaken.
The other issue caused by water damage is mold growth as mold generally appears in areas where there is excess moisture. The appearance of mold will lead to further damage and make the situation more dangerous as exposure to mold can cause allergic reactions and infections.
Preventing Water Damage in Your Home
Water damage can be a costly and stressful problem for homeowners. Fortunately, there are steps you can take to prevent water damage and protect your property. Here are some tips to help you avoid water damage in your home:
- Regularly inspect and maintain your plumbing system, including pipes, faucets, and water heaters.
- Ensure proper drainage around your home by keeping gutters and downspouts clean and in good repair.
