Signs to look for
When to call us for residential water removal
For the written restoration scope, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.
A pet keeps returning to the same spot on the floor
During our assessment, dogs and cats find damp long before people do, and they lie on cool surfaces. As our specialists document the loss, repeated interest in one patch of floor commonly means the pad or subfloor under it holds water.
The floor sounds different when you walk across it
From the first moisture reading, a dull or hollow note underfoot means the layers below have separated or softened. As our specialists document the loss, you will commonly hear it before you can feel any give.
Interior doors and drawers stopped closing properly
For the written restoration scope, wood swells as it takes on moisture, so latches misalign and drawers bind in humid conditions.
One closet smells different from the room it opens into
From the first moisture reading, closets are still air pockets against exterior or plumbing walls, so odor concentrates there first. As our specialists document the loss, open one that has been shut for a day and smell at the floor.
Someone in the household is coughing more at home than away
During our assessment, damp material raises the spore and dust load in the air you breathe all evening.
