Water damage to your Longview Business should never be underestimated, even though not all damage is easily visible, it will show itself with time. No matter the perceived damage, you need to call a professional remediation service, reaction time is one of the most important parts of any water damage situation. Water takes the path of least resistance, so it often finds its way through building materials where it eventually gets trapped and creates rot and mold growth.

Emergency water removal is the first step in preventing any more damage to your property. Once the water is out, and the area has been dried by our SERVPRO technicians, we thoroughly inspect your property and figure out what has been affected and what is undamaged. This process can usually be finished in a few days and is monitored closely to ensure proper drying.

Some of the most common water damage causes:

- Failures in Your Plumbing
These events can release hundreds of gallons of water quickly into your office building. Malfunctions can result from broken pipes, malfunctioning sprinkler systems, loose hoses, and other plumbing sources.

- Local Flooding
Flooding can come from sudden, heavy local rain falls. Downpours this intense can flood gutters, drains, and down spouts quickly, and the overflow can cause severe water damage to your business.

- Long-Term Moisture and Humidity
Small leaks usually hide and are and overlooked, however, over time they lead to water damage problems that need repair. Ceilings, wall cavities, bathrooms, hallways, and attics are the most susceptible areas to mold growth and wood rot from continued exposure. Basements and vented crawlspaces are also environments which can be humid, leading to similar water and mold issues. Standing water can fast turn into damage that is more widespread if it is not cleaned up right away. Mold starts growing in as little as twenty-four hours after a water intrusion and can spread through your building and do much harm to the structural integrity, plus to the health of your employees and any equipment inside.
