Flooding and Why Time is Important

10/12/2020 (Permalink)

Many of us have experienced a leaky pipe, storm damage, backed up toilet, overflowed tub, and even septic back up. When a flood happens we rush to dry up the floor and clean the area. But what most do know is the moisture can cause mold to start growing. Did you know that mildew and mold will develop within 24-48 hours of water exposure?

Here are some important tips when floods happen. 

• Take photos of the flooded area from the outside area
• Shut off electric to the area flooded ( do not enter a flooded room with electric on ) 
• Try to dry most of it if possible  
• CALL our offices at 321-953-8600
