The Progressive Nature of Water Damage

SERVPRO of Northeast San Antonio is always here to help!

When water damage is experienced, the important factor to remember is that the damage is progressive.  The longer the moisture remains in the structure, the greater the severity of the damage. 

Often, however, property owners attempt to perform the cleanup themselves and are not equipped or trained to dry out structures quickly and thoroughly and the risk is even greater than they will experience a more costly damage to their property.

Long-term exposure to excess moisture can destroy the structural integrity of building products, including carpet backing, drywall, and particle board.  Moisture that has entered the wall or flooring can be a breeding ground for mold in as little as 24-48 hours.

SERVPRO of Northeast San Antonio has responded to commercial and residential water damages over the years.  Experience has shown by drying a structure out quickly and thoroughly, damage to the structure or contents can be reduced drastically.

With 24-hour emergency service offered, our team has the knowledge and equipment to help meet the urgency of water damages.  Utilizing moisture sensors and advanced drying technology, damaging moisture is quickly removed.  If you experience a water loss, give our staff at SERVPRO of Northeast San Antonio a call at (210) 653-4651.  Our team is always here to help!
