How Fast Should Water Damage Be Dried?

Water damage should be addressed immediately.

Moisture can begin soaking into:

• Drywall

• Insulation

• Cabinets

• Flooring

• Subfloors

• Framing materials

within hours.

If left untreated, mold growth can begin quickly and structural materials may become permanently damaged.

That’s why our emergency mitigation crews focus on:

• Fast water extraction
