Immediately following water damage within a property the water should be extracted, the water damaged building materials removed and the structures dried within 24-48 hours to prevent mold growth. If going through insurance, our company can assess the extent of the damage to document the situation and provide a detailed report of your loss. We highly recommend contracting a restoration company, ASAP, to perform the dry out and material removal. Following the cleanup it is recommended to have the areas inspected with the collection of air quality mold samples to determine if the cleanup was successful.
