Flooding from your dishwasher can put you under many inches of water. Contact SERVPRO to dry out your property and remediate the damage.

SERVPRO Technicians Effectively Dry Out Your Property After Flooding Regardless of the Source

Some of your Tallassee home's appliances use water to perform their function. Washing machines, dishwashers, water heaters, and many of the more recent refrigerator models have their own water lines. Each of these lines can cause severe problems inside your home when they break or come loose at either end.
 
Regularly checking the water lines in your home's appliances can reduce the chances of such incidents leading to flood damage in Tallassee. SERVPRO technicians are always ready for those unexpected emergencies, though, no matter how large or small. We assist homeowners in regaining control of their homes and make things “Like it never even happened.” once again.
 
Flood damage from appliances that leak or malfunction by overflowing introduces clean water into your home, as opposed to the highly contaminated water experienced during weather-related flooding. We still must remove this water as soon as possible. Clean water can become contaminated from absorbing substances found on your floors and lower portions of walls.
 
Staining of carpets also becomes much more likely as time passes. With weather-related flood damage, we typically cannot save carpeting. When flooding comes from an interior source such as from an appliance's leak or overflow caused by a clog, we have a much better chance of saving our customers the expense of replacing their carpets. We must replace the padding in almost all cases, however, just because of the way in which it disintegrates when exposed to water.
 
Removing the water after stopping its flow at the source shows up any primary damage. Because we know the water contains little contamination, we can work more rapidly. We do not need to remove any silt or other debris that we find in other types of flooding disasters. We also do not need to remove as many materials from your home's structure.
 
Airing out the interior spaces of your home's walls using our Injectidry system can save your home from experiencing secondary water damage like microbial infestations. SERVPRO technicians also use heated extraction units to remove water that seeped into hard-to-reach places like under floorboards.
