Protect Your Floors From Water Damage In St. Petersburg

It does not take a hurricane for water to invite itself into your home. Often, water damage results from a broken down water heater, or a faulty dishwasher. Even though there is no natural disaster associated with the water event, your life is still disrupted, and you need help. Many homeowners try to dry the affected areas, without realizing that water has permeated flooring materials, leaving you vulnerable to bacteria, mold, and a compromised structure. When you call a specialized team, you can anticipate complications and take preventive action.

When the water damage happens in your St. Petersburg home, you can count on SERVPRO to walk you through the ramifications of an otherwise minor spill. At its core, it is essential to remember that the sooner you extract the water, the lesser the damage will be. Like you, we want to take care of the incident while reducing your losses, and this includes protecting the longevity of your floors.

Properties with beautiful hardwood floors can rely on our SERVPRO team to be knowledgeable of the optimal moisture level for structural wood. When a wooden board expands due to moisture, it can buckle at the joints, and this warping can survive if the floor is allowed to dry in this position. When we come in, we use industry-grade technology to monitor the humidity and restore it to the recommended levels. Engineered wood materials, such as particleboard and laminate flooring, may resist the water. However, the glue used to keep boards together may dissolve with water, causing a shift on the installation. As our water restoration technicians bring in dehumidifiers, water extractors, and pumps, we take into account the moisture in the air and the specific needs of each material we dry.

By calling our 24/7 line at (727) 522-0000, you have access to a cadre of specialized technicians who can address your immediate needs while preventing future complications.
