Water Damage After a Fire

7/23/2020 (Permalink)

When dealing with the after affects of a fire, you may not immediately consider water damage being a factor, but unfortunately it can be almost as damaging as the flames itself. Putting out flames almost always uses some kind of water source, whether it be from the fire department using extinguishing hoses, or a sprinkler system that detected the smoke. When water comes into contact with materials such as carpeting or hard wood, deterioration can happen quickly. Not only can water have an immediate effect on your belongings, prolonged exposure can lead to mold growth which can spread quickly and silently.
