What Do We Mean by Flood Damage?
Many professional flood restoration companies differentiate between water damage and flood damage. They claim that flood damage results from external natural disasters. On the other hand, water damage is caused by internal sources within a home.
However, at Mountain West Moldbusters, we do not use these distinctions. For us, a flood occurs anytime there is water in your home that should not be there. Thus, floods can be caused by the following situations.
- Rain: Heavy rain can saturate the ground outside your home, leaving water inside. Often, rain will cause basement flooding.
- Snow: When the snow melts in the spring, it can cause flooding of rivers and your drainage systems.
- Flash floods: Flash floods are dangerous and intense. They occur suddenly and can have strong currents, causing a lot of damage to your home.
- Plumbing and appliance problems: Sometimes, problems inside your home can lead to flooding. These include burst pipes, broken water heaters, and appliance leaks.
- Sewage backups: No one wants to deal with sewage backups. This type of flooding brings black water into your home, which can create an unhealthy living environment and must be dealt with immediately.
Why You Should Address Flood Damage Immediately
Dealing with an indoor flood immediately is absolutely crucial for several reasons:
- Safety Concerns: Floodwater can pose immediate safety hazards. It may contain contaminants, sharp objects, or even electrical currents.
- Prevent Further Damage: The longer water sits in your home, the more damage it can cause. Water can seep into walls, floors, and structural components, weakening them over time.
- Mold Prevention: Mold can grow in a damp environment after 24-48 hours. By addressing the flood promptly, you will minimize the risk of a mold infestation, which can lead to health issues and costly remediation efforts.
- Reduce Restoration Costs: Delaying repairs can result in more extensive damage, requiring more time and resources to restore your home to its pre-flood condition.
- Prevent Health Issues: Stagnant water can become a breeding ground for bacteria and pathogens, posing a substantial health risk to you and your family.
- Peace of Mind: Dealing with a flood is a stressful experience. Taking swift action to address the issue can provide a sense of control and reduce the emotional toll of the situation.
