Rain Season Damage

1/5/2021 (Permalink)

Rain season is the most common time for water damage to occur. Leaks in roofs and flood damage can happen fast and cause a lot of damage. Here’s a look at the type of damages you can expect in your home from these rain season disasters.

Leak in Roof

       A leak in your roof can be from roof damage because of old age and repairs needed, or high winds damaging your roof. You can lessen the amount of damaged caused by the leak to your floors by catching it with a bucket, but what about the ceiling and walls? Water damage here might not be visible right away, but if not taken care of can lead to a roof collapse or mold. What if you had multiple leaks or a larger leak in the roof? This is may cause more damage and affect flooring as well.  Trust in SERVPRO of San Mateo to remove any water damage right away so you can have peace of mind.

Flood Damage

      Floods are dangerous and can cause a lot of damage to a house. If the flood left standing water, having that extracted right away can make a large difference in how much damage. The floor and your belongings that rest on the floor will be affected. The extent of wall damage depends on how high the water was. The most important thing is to not try to take care of it yourself. Floodwater is highly contaminated and it's safer to have SERVPRO of San Mateo take care of it for you. We use our moisture readers to determine the extent of the damage and can start the drying process right away with our 24/7 emergency services.

No matter the reason, size, or time of the damage SERVPRO of San Mateo is here to make it “Like it never even happened.”
