Floor Water Damage
Whenever you have a flood or leak at home, your floors come in contact with the water first. Although you might think that your floors are safe once you dry them up with a mop or sponge, this method is not enough to protect them. Water can be easily absorbed by hardwood floor and carpeted floors. Surfaces that are unable to get fully dried will become moist or damp, which can cause ongoing damage. The professional crew at Dreyer’s DKI can help you resolve the moisture problem before it causes more issues.
Moisture encourages mold and mildew, wood rotting, structural weakening, and bad-smelling odors. Resolving the impact of ongoing floor water damage can be challenging and nearly impossible using DIY methods. If your floors have been impacted by water damage, your best chance of preserving their form and function is to call in the professionals right away.
