What happens if I don’t fix the water damage?

It is important to seek professional help to repair and restore your home to its pre-damaged condition.

Water damage can be caused by a variety of factors. If not addressed promptly, water damage can cause significant problems for your home and your health. 

• Structural damage: Water can weaken the structural integrity of your home, causing warping, cracking, and even collapse of your floors, walls, and ceilings.
• Mold growth: Water damage creates a perfect environment for mold to grow, which can lead to serious health problems such as respiratory issues and allergies.
• Electrical hazards: Water can cause electrical wiring to malfunction or even short circuit, which can cause fires and pose a serious risk to your safety.
• Odor: Water damage can cause unpleasant odors to develop, which can be difficult to eliminate without professional remediation.
• Pest infestations: Water damage can attract pests such as rodents and insects, which can thrive in damp environments and cause further damage to your home.
• Decreased property value: If left unprepared, water damage can decrease the value of your home and make it difficult to sell in the future.
• Health hazards: Water damage can create a breeding ground for bacteria and viruses, which can pose a serious health risk to you and your family.

It is important to seek professional help to repair and restore your home to its pre-damaged condition.
