Water Damage on Wood Floors

Sometimes, with the smallest amount of water damage, like a toilet overflow that you caught pretty fast, still needs to be treated fast. Because if not treated right away it's possible that more damage can or will occur. Most homeowners almost don't call when they noticed the damage because they didn't think it would be a big deal. Most of the time when our technicians arrive the problem is bigger than what the homeowner could see in plain sight. Once the scope of work is done, it then can be determined if any work even needs to be done. drying out a wood floor properly, for example, is important so that the floor doesn't buckle or have moisture trapped underneath. Moisture trapped in the wall cavities and in the floor most often will lead to mold growth and you can triple the cost of what should have been a simple dry out.
