Water Damage Restoration Greensboro's Highest-Rated Water Damage Restoration Team

Water damage is generally caused by plumbing issues or adverse weather. Some of the most common causes include:

• Flash Floods – When water levels rise rapidly, it can result in flash floods that cause water to breach your property.
• Storm Damage – Storm damage is a common occurrence in Greensboro, especially during hurricane season. Heavy rain from these storms can cause water to enter your property if there is any damage to your roof, or other openings, causing extensive water damage.
• Poor Plumbing Maintenance – When plumbing maintenance is neglected, it can result in clogs that cause your toilets, sinks, bathtubs, or drains to overflow, causing significant amounts of water to flood your property.
• Pipes and Supply Line Leaks – Pipes begin to deteriorate when they get old and at some point they may burst, causing large volumes of water to flood your property. Leaks in your pipes can also cause serious problems, resulting in water seeping into your walls and floors.
• Frozen Pipes – Greensboro occasionally experiences temperatures cold enough for poorly insulated pipes to freeze. As the frozen water inside these pipes expands, it can damage your water lines and potentially cause leaks that result in water damage.
• Sewer Backup – A sewage backup can result in contaminated water flooding your property, spreading bacteria and viruses throughout your home or business.

Prompt action is essential to prevent water damage from developing into more serious issues. While it’s important to leave the restoration work to professionals, there are some actions you can take to mitigate the problem while you wait for our water damage restoration experts to arrive. Always prioritize your and your family’s safety when trying to address water damage on your own.

You can minimize the severity of water damage and lower your risk of injury by taking the following steps:

• If possible, shut off the water source responsible for the damage; if you’re unable to do this on your own, contact a professional who can assist you
• If it’s safe to access your electrical panel without experiencing a shock, turn off all circuit breakers powering areas of the property that have sustained water damage
• Use a mop, towels, or bucket to remove as much excess water as you can
• Remove wet cushions from your furniture and prop them up so they can dry
• Place aluminum foil or wood blocks underneath furniture legs to separate them from wet carpeting
• Move all paintings, valuable objects, electronic devices, and important documents away from areas of water and store them in a dry location

The following precautions will help minimize your risk of electrical shock and other injuries while you wait for our Greensboro water damage restoration team to arrive:

• Stay way from any areas containing circuit breakers, electrical outlets, or electrical equipment that has been exposed to water
• Avoid using ceiling fixtures such as fans or lights in any rooms with a wet ceiling
• Avoid removing water from your carpet with a vacuum cleaner
• Stay away from rooms that have sagging ceilings due to the water damage

Our multi-step process:

• Identify the Water Source – The first stage of the process always involves identifying and stopping the water source causing the damage.
