SERVPRO Conducts Water Damage Repairs in the Cottage Grove Area

One minute, things could be going fine as usual, and you wake up to take a shower and find that there is no hot water coming out of the faucet. As you check other faucets for hot water, you realize there is something wrong with your water heater. As you go to your utility closet to take a look at it, you notice water on the floor around it, and you can hear it leaking out from the bottom.

Anytime you notice moisture on your floors, water restoration companies in Cottage Grove, such as SERVPRO, can help. Even if you think the amount of water is small, there could be moisture hiding from the bare eye. Items like your walls or flooring materials could have soaked up water, leaving them susceptible to damage and possibly mold growth. Luckily, we can help prevent secondary issues such as the formation of fungi by conducting the following procedures:

• Water Damage Remediation
• Water Damage Restoration
• Repairing Burst Pipes
• Fixing Ceiling Leaks
• Basement Flooding Cleanup
• Water Clean Up

One of the first things we do after your water heater breaks is to call in a certified plumber to shut off the water and then replace the heating unit. Once the water heater is removed and not leaking moisture into your home, we can inspect your structure for damage. We start at the source and then use moisture sensors and meters to see how far throughout your building the water traveled. Since the source of the water is clean, there is a chance that we can save many of your affected building materials and contents through extraction and drying procedures. 

If you ever notice a large puddle of water after your water heater breaks, call SERVPRO of Woodbury, Cottage Grove at (651) 314-4631.
