Mitigating Flooding

You should never put your family or yourself in a dangerous situation to manage water damage, especially if an evacuation order has been issued. 

If the flooding is caused by a burst pipe or other plumbing issue, here are a few steps you can take:

  • Turn off the main valve
  • Call ABC Restoration
  • Reach out to your insurance provider
  • Increase air circulation

As soon as you notice a plumbing issue, turn off the water supply for the area (this is usually below sinks or behind a toilet). If this is a sewage backup, avoid walking through the unsanitary material without rubber boots, gloves, and a face shield or safety glasses. Otherwise, use the main valve outside your home to shut off your system. 

Now that you’ve stopped the water flow, it’s essential to contact our Houston water damage restoration professionals and your insurance company. Your insurance provider may recommend another restoration company, but you don’t have to follow their recommendation and risk unreliable service. Calling our team immediately helps reduce the amount of water absorbed into building materials.

While our team is on the way, try to increase air circulation by opening doors or windows and turning on any fans or heaters (if it’s safe). This can help dry the water before it soaks into your home. If a burst pipe causes flooding, turn the heat up to help thaw the rest of your pipes to avoid another leak.

Why Timely Water Damage Restoration is Crucial

When faced with water damage, every minute counts. Delaying restoration can lead to more severe issues such as mold growth, structural damage, and increased repair costs. At ABC Restoration, Inc., we understand the urgency of your situation and are committed to providing swift, effective solutions to restore your property.

Here are some reasons why prompt action is essential:

  • Mold Prevention: Mold can begin to grow within 24-48 hours of water exposure. Quick restoration minimizes the risk of mold infestations, protecting your health and property.
  • Cost Savings: The longer water damage remains untreated, the more extensive the damage can become, leading to higher repair costs. Early intervention can save you money in the long run.
  • Preservation of Belongings: Quick response helps salvage personal items, furniture, and valuable belongings that might otherwise be ruined by prolonged exposure to moisture.
  • Structural Integrity: Water can weaken the foundation and structure of your home. Addressing the issue swiftly ensures your home remains safe and stable.
  • Insurance Benefits: Many insurance policies require prompt reporting and restoration efforts. Acting quickly can help ensure you receive the coverage you’re entitled to.

Commonly Asked Questions

What should I do immediately after discovering water damage in my home?

First, ensure your safety by turning off the main water supply and electricity if necessary. Avoid walking through any standing water, especially if it may be electrically charged. Then, contact a water damage company for professional assistance.

How can I prevent water damage in my home?

Regularly inspect plumbing, roofs, and appliances for leaks. Ensure gutters and downspouts are clear, and consider installing sump pumps in basements. Additionally, maintain proper drainage around your property.

What types of water damage are covered by homeowners insurance?

Coverage can vary by policy, but typically, sudden and accidental water damage from plumbing issues is covered. However, damage from long-term leaks or flooding may not be covered, so it's essential to review your policy.

How long does the water damage restoration process take?

The duration can vary based on the extent of the damage and the size of the affected area. Minor water damage might take a few days, while extensive damage could take weeks. A professional assessment can provide a more accurate timeline.

What signs indicate that I may have hidden water damage?

Signs include persistent musty odors, discoloration on walls or ceilings, peeling paint, and increased utility bills. If you notice these signs, it's advisable to have a professional inspection.

Is it safe to stay in my home during the water damage restoration process?

It depends on the severity of the damage. If there are structural concerns, mold growth, or contaminated water, it may be safer to temporarily relocate. A professional assessment can help determine the best course of action.
