Flood Damage Scenarios

Water damage takes many forms and can strike even the most prepared business or homeowner. Various water damage causes deserve appropriate treatments. Regardless of the source or size of water damage in your business, Paul Davis Emergency Services act fast and effectively.

These are a few of the most common causes of water damage:

Bad Weather

Severe storms can put any building’s integrity on trial. When storms get intense, water becomes a powerful element. Whether it’s a flood, hurricane, or blizzard, if water harms your home or business, it becomes a grave matter. No one can be ready for every scenario, but if issues occur, our expertise is available.

Flooding in the Basement

Underground rooms are magnets for runoff water, be it from precipitation, a leaky roof, a malfunctioning water pump, or any other source. It just takes one crack in the basement for water to invade. Paul Davis specialists are highly trained to remove flooding from basements, sanitize and restore your possessions, and dry everything fast to minimize damage. Our team doesn’t stop until we have confirmed that the work is complete.

Issues from Sewage Backups

Sewage back up is not just gross, it’s hazardous. Grey or black water contamination carries pathogens that may lead to serious illness. Backup from sewer blockages can be designated as a crisis and should be handled immediately. Qualified Paul Davis emergency responders inspect and eliminate the damage from the sewage and all standing water damage may have occurred. Our equipment and specialized education will eliminate the problem with efficiency and speed.

Broken Pipes & Appliance Malfunctions

If a faucet, tub, water heater or any other appliance breaks, the outcome can vary from irritating to devastating. Stagnant flooding left on the floor can seep into the foundation, and pool in hard-to-reach areas. You then cause floor damage and invite a mold invasion. If your water damage starts from toilet or dishwasher malfunction, you additionally risk fostering microbes. Have an emergency professional investigate the situation to avoid larger costs down the road.

Firefighting Runoff

It’s bad enough for a property to take on fire damage, but it’s even worse to be stuck with water damage in the days after the blaze. In the steps of extinguishing a home fire, your home or business may be left soaked. This one-two punch of severe damage can leave your area ruined. Paul Davis Emergency Services has the skills to remove all fire or water damage remaining.
