Water Damage Scenarios

Water damage occurs in several various ways and can strike even the most prepared business or home. Various flood damage scenarios need special treatments. Whatever the origin or scale of flood damage in your home, Paul Davis Emergency Services respond quickly and professionally.

These are a few of the most common reasons for water damage:

Mother Nature

Bad storms will put any structure’s foundation on trial. If weather gets dangerous, water becomes a strong force. Be it a flood, tornado, or winter storm, when water hits your home or business, it’s a grave problem. No one can be prepared for every scenario, but when water damage strikes, you’ll have our expertise.

Basement Flooding

Basements attract lots of runoff water, be it from precipitation, a leaky roof, a broken sump pump, or other sources. It just takes one crack in the cellar for moisture to flow in. Paul Davis specialists are highly qualified to remove water from cellars, sanitize and preserve your possessions, and dry everything quickly to minimize damage. We don’t rest until we know that the job is finished.

Sewage Backups & Malfunctions

Sewage back up is not just nasty, it’s dangerous. Black or grey water contamination spreads toxins that can lead to serious illness. Flooding caused by sewer blockages can be considered an emergency and be handled immediately. Trained Paul Davis emergency responders inspect and eliminate the damage from the source and all stagnant water damage may have happened. Our technology and specialized training can solve the issues with efficiency and speed.

Appliance Malfunctions & Broken Plumbing

If a faucet, bathtub, washing machine or other appliance breaks, the outcome can vary from annoying to devastating. Stagnant water on the floor can drain into tight spots, collecting in hard-to-reach places. You may cause wood damage and harbor a mold invasion. If your water damage starts from toilet or kitchen malfunction, you additionally risk spreading microbes. Have an emergency specialist investigate the area to avoid further expenses later on.

Firefighting Runoff

It’s bad enough for a home to sustain fire damage, but it’s even worse to be left with water damage in the days after the blaze. In the steps of killing a home fire, your home or business can be left soaked. This surplus of home damage can leave your space devastated. Paul Davis Emergency Services has the training to remove all fire or water damage remaining.
