The Magic of Water Damage Restoration

You might think that the recent water damage to your home in Sonoma County may be irreparable. So, it’s time to pack up and move out? Or course not! Modern technology allows us to dry, clean, and sanitize damaged and hazardous personal belonging, as well as repair all the structural damage to your home.

Typical Damage

Typically, when water damages a home, the water doesn’t rise above a foot or two off the ground, but that water can completely ruin your floor, wall paint, and drywall, while it’s possible for the electrical lines and plumbing to be damaged by the water or during repairs.

On top of the damage to your home’s woodwork, flooring, plumbing, and electricity, you also run the risk of mold growing in any areas that remain wet for too long, turning your home into a toxic trap. So, you might think all this damage will make your home unsafe to live in and collapse on itself, but you’d be wrong!

Time for Repairs

Despite your fears that the damage is too severe to be fixed, in the eyes of restoration professionals, the near-collapse appearance of your home is just another day on the job. The water can seep through your flooring to damage the subflooring and ceilings below, while completely weakening the wallboard, but that’s nothing more than a flat tire to the experts.

Once you’ve contacted a restoration professional to come care for your home, they’ll start taking measures to prevent further damage in its weakened state, then begin their work which often includes:

  • Drywall removal and installation
  • Hardwood, tile, and carpet repair
  • Painting
  • Repairing electrical lines and plumbing

Regardless of where you are, your home, office, garage, or an outdoor shed, water restoration professionals can make your damaged property look better than new; the water damage will have served to improve the overall quality of your house (while providing the opportunity to redesign as well).

Rejoice, don’t Grieve!

While you thought your home was damaged beyond repairs and you were going to lose it along with all the memories it holds, your smart decision to hire experts to save the day paid off. Their work was miraculous, not only fixing what appeared unfixable, but restoring your home beyond its original state and leaving it sturdy enough to provide a space for more memories. If you ever experience water damage again (or know someone who does), then you won’t have a seed of doubt in your mind that everything can be made right as rain (just not INSIDE the house!).
