Water Damage TipsNovember 2, 2020iSanitize

Removing the water is not enough for protecting your house; you should work on water damage restoration. It’s a process or service to treat the current problem and reverse the damage caused by unwanted water accumulation. It means you should remove the accumulated water and take steps to ensure that it doesn’t happen again. And get your home back to its original condition.

In this post, we will discuss the 3 effective tips for water damage restoration.

First, remove the water
Once you find that water is accumulating in your house or basement, cut off the main electricity and gas supply. After disconnecting all the utility connections, you should find the source of the leak and patch it temporarily using duct tape or other sealants. It will stop the flow of water inside your house.

Water damage restoration takes time so you should remove the furniture from the standing water and start the temporary repair of the damaged ones. After emptying the area, pump out the water completely using a bucket or professional wet/dry vacuum. Once the water is completely removed, you should dry the wet areas.

Second, work on water damage restoration
After pumping out the standing water, temporarily fixing the leak patches, and drying the wet areas, you should now start working on water damage restoration. You should identify the damage caused by the water and fix them properly. When you start working, make sure that the area is well-ventilated and there is no way for moisture to exist. Moisture means significant growth of mold.

If you spot mold during the cleaning process, you should get rid of it right away and sanitize the area properly. If you wait to treat it later, it will spread quickly and cause respiratory infections. If your house has suffered from water damage before, you should consult with professionals for overall evaluation and fixing of the problems.

Third, invest in waterproofing treatments
It’s always good to think about your future along with resolving the current problem. Whether it’s your first time or you’ve suffered from water damage before, you should invest in waterproofing to avoid similar problems in the future. It will give you peace of mind and protect your house from unwanted water accumulation.

There are various waterproofing techniques so analyze your requirements before hiring the professionals to treat your house. You should look for signs of moisture like condensation around pipes, stains on walls, and so on. Besides, after undergoing water damage restoration, opt for periodic inspection to ensure everything is perfectly fine.
