Likeliest Sources of Water Damage in San Diego City SW
We’re fortunate to have good weather most of the time, and by “good”, we mean “so gosh-darned delightful most visitors are stunned beyond belief”. This good fortune does not, alas, prevent water damage from hitting small or large businesses.
Around here, water damage is less likely to come from rain than it is in other places, and more likely to come from:
- Water heaters
- Slow leaks may not be noticeable at first, which leaves a lot of time for water to cause damage. If water bills are mysteriously high, check for slow leaks somewhere in the building.
- A burst tank or pipe is impossible not to notice. A large amount of water can also cause a large amount of damage, but if SERVPRO of San Diego City SW can there quickly enough to extract the water, we can minimize the damage.
- Slab Leaks are – unsurprisingly from leaking slabs but are from pipe leaks. Since the pipes in these cases are under concrete slabs, the slabs got the blame. These leaks can be slow or from burst pipes. See the information under “water heaters” for comments about slow leaks and burst pipes.
- Other leaking or burst pipes – There are many causes, but the results are the same.
- Equipment/ appliance malfunctions – see above
Water Damage is Major Damage
Water under pressure can clean dozens of years of grime from stone buildings. Given time, water can erode concrete and steel.
Imagine what water can do to the more delicate materials of contemporary buildings.
While water from supply lines may be clean, other water contains germs, debris, mold or mildew, and other contaminants. Even the cleanest water will not remain clean for long. Mold spores are too small to see without a microscope but trust our training: mold spores are everywhere. Just add a little extra water (such as from a slow leak or a burst pipe), and the spores open, allowing for explosive growth.
