We believe in thorough water damage restoration in Houston – done right and fast!
Houston is currently experiencing one of the worst winters in a generation. Other than the brutally freezing cold, and power outages, residents are dealing with another scary scenario: broken water pipes which are causing untold water damage to homes and businesses. Once pipes freeze, the water inside the pipes converts into ice and expands significantly.
This causes pressure to build up inside the pipes which, if not insulated properly end up bursting. Once the pipes burst, water begins to gush out unrestrained. It takes a while for most homeowners to know that a pipe has burst. In the meantime, water sips into the walls, attic, floors, cabinets, etc, and causes significant damage.
Water intrusion into buildings can be incredibly destructive
Freezing cold such as the one sweeping through Texas can wreak havoc on a building’s plumbing system. If not properly insulated, pipes will burst and leak a lot of water into the home. This excess water can cause issues within an indoor environment. Without proper water extraction, decontamination, and drying, numerous long-term effects including mold can take hold of a building. These can pose numerous health risks.
