The Hazards of Water Damage to Your Home
Your home is a lifelong investment and you want to do everything you can to maintain its value. Unfortunately, if your home is ever subjected to water damage, it could decrease its value and come with other costly hazards.
ASBESTOS
Asbestos growth in your home can be dangerous to you and your family. It can cause breathing problems and other lifelong side effects. Water damage may increase the presence of asbestos.
MOLD
Mold needs a damp place to grow and spread, and if your home has water damage, it provides the ideal environment for that to happen. The presence of mold in your home can cause breathing problems, allergies and other permanent side effects if left untreated.
STRUCTURAL DAMAGE
Water damage is not only bad for your health, but can also do harm to your home’s structure. Leaving water damage untreated can cause wood to rot, wallpaper to curl and flooring to bulge. It could leave a big dent in your wallet as you try to fix all the secondary problems caused by water damage.
The best thing you can do if your home ever gets water damage is to take care of it right away. If left untreated, it can really pose an expensive and dangerous threat to you and your family. Hire a professional to address your water damage issues and help you reverse the damage and fix the other issues in your home.
