Water damage can result from many factors, faulty sump pump, leaking roof, rusted water heater, burst pipe, ice dams, dishwasher or washing machine. If not restored quickly, secondary damage will begin, such as mold and mildew which causes biological contamination.
Carpeting, wallboard, appliances, electronics and furniture can be ruined at once, even with just an inch of water. A severe storm or deeper flood may add damage to ducts, heaters and air conditioners, roofing, private sewage and well systems, utilities and foundations.
