When Response Time Matters, Choose Us
11/19/2019 (Permalink)
When disaster strikes your home or business, and it is your home or livelihood on the line, time becomes an especially precious commodity. You don’t have the benefit of waiting for help—you need it right away.
Since we understand that a fast response is crucial, responding faster to any size disaster is more than just a slogan for us.
It’s your belongings or business on the line, which means time is not a luxury you have regarding disaster cleanup. This is especially true when water damage has come into play, which can be through various means such as flooding, appliance and/or plumbing failures, storm damage and fire damage, as water is used to put out the fires.
In only a matter of minutes, water can spread throughout your property, where it will saturate everything in its path. The walls, the floors, upholstery and your belongings are fast casualties of water.
The effects of water damage within the first 24 hours include:
- Drywall beginning to swell and break down
- Metal surfaces beginning to tarnish
- Furniture beginning to swell and crack
- Dyes and inks from cloth and paper items spreading and staining
- The beginning of a musty odor
This damage will continue to worsen as time goes on. Between 48 hours and a week later, you could begin to see:
- The growth and spreading of mold and mildew
- Swelling and warping of doors, windows and studs
- Metal beginning to rust and corrode
- Paint beginning to blister
- Wood flooring swelling and warping
- The possibilities of serious biohazard contamination
When water damage is left untreated for over a week, it will lead to a longer restoration time and higher costs and could also impact the structural safety.
Our trained cleanup ad restoration specialists can be dispatched to your property or business at any time, no matter what day or time it is.
This allows us to provide an immediate response to any size disaster, which can help minimize the damage and help keep the cleaning and restoration costs manageable.
We are close by and ready to respond whenever the call comes in since we are a locally owned and operated franchise. A major perk of being part of a national network of over 1,700 franchises is that we have access to more resources for the cleanup and restoration projects that may be larger or stem from major storm situations.
Remember, if you need us, we’ll be there—no matter the time or day. The team of highly trained restoration experts at SERVPRO® of Garden Grove East/Anaheim Central is available for emergency cleanup and restoration services 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
