Within minutes after the water intrusion has begun, the water spreads quickly through home or business.  It will saturate everything within in its path. 

Water can be absorbed into walls, floors, upholstery, and personal belongings.  Permanent staining can occur on textiles and carpet.  Sentimental items such as photos, books, documents can swell, making them unsalvageable. 

In as little as 1 to 24 hours drywall begins to swell and break down, metal will start the onset of tarnishing. Your household furniture can begin to swell and crack.  Musty odors will begin to become apparent. 

In 48 hours to one week, mold and mildew may grow and rapidly spread.  Doors, windows, and studs start to swell and warp, causing structural issues. Metal will corrode and begin rusting.  Furniture will warp, as well as start showing signs of mold.  The paint will blister.  Wood flooring starts swelling and blistering. Not to mention, serious biohazard contamination is possible. 

SERVPRO of North Calhoun is always happy to help.
