A small amount of water can cause a large amount of damage to a property. Therefore, it is important to contact a water damage restoration Aurora CO company quickly when a pipe bursts or a flood occurs.
You Have About 24 Hours to Dry a Property Out
If water lingers on a property for more than 24 hours, it may not be possible to salvage floors, walls or other surfaces that it touched. It may also be necessary to get rid of drywall, insulation or other materials that remain wet for more than a day or two. Failure to eliminate moisture in a timely basis could result in mold or mildew growth in a room or an entire property. Moist areas may also become breeding grounds for pests such as carpenter ants and mosquitoes.
Don’t Try to Remove Dirty Water Yourself
You should never attempt to clean water that is brown or green. This is because it may have sewage or human waste in it, and it is also possible for needles or other objects to remain hidden below the water. Instead, you should have a water damage restoration Aurora CO professional come and clean your home, rental property or commercial building. Water damage professionals may be able to come to your property and assess the damage in a matter of minutes.
If water has infiltrated your home or rental property, get in touch with Western Maintenance & Construction.
