Causes of Flood Damage

Water damage takes many forms and can hit even the most equipped business or home. Various flood damage scenarios require special answers. Whatever the source or scale of flood damage in your business, Paul Davis Emergency Services respond fast and effectively. These are some of the most common reasons for water damage:

Rain Damage

Serious weather can put any structure's integrity on trial. When storms get serious, water becomes a strong force. Whether it's a flash flood, hurricane, or blizzard, when water harms your property, it's a serious issue. No one can be ready for a problem like this, but when issues occur, our expertise is available.

Flooding in the Basement

Cellars draw in lots of runoff water, whether from precipitation, a leaky roof, a broken sump pump, or some other source. It only takes one break in the cellar for moisture to invade. Paul Davis experts are highly trained to remove flooding from basements, clean and preserve your home goods, and dry everything fast to minimize damage. We don't stop until we know that the task is complete.

Sewer Leaks & Malfunctions

Sewer flooding is not only nasty, it's hazardous. Black or grey water pollution contains toxins that can lead to serious illness. Flooding from sewer blockages can be designated as a crisis and be handled right away. Certified Paul Davis emergency responders evaluate and remove the damage from the source and any stagnant water damage may have happened. Our tools and specialized training can eliminate the problem with safety and quality.

Broken Pipes & Appliance Malfunctions

If a sink, tub, water heater or other appliance breaks, the outcome can range from irritating to devastating. Standing flooding left on the floor can drain into the foundation, collecting in out of reach places. You then cause floor damage and harbor a mold invasion. If your water damage results from sewage or dishwasher malfunction, you additionally risk fostering illnesses. Have a professional inspect the situation to prevent more expenses down the road.

Firefighting Runoff

It's terrible enough for a property to take on fire damage, but it's worse to be stuck with water damage after the blaze. In the steps of extinguishing an indoor fire, your property can be left with water damage. This one-two punch of severe damage can leave your space devastated. Paul Davis Emergency Services has the skills to remove any fire or water damage left.
