Pine Island, Florida Water Damage

Pine Island floods or leaks in your home it require immediate attention

Anytime Pine Island water floods or leaks into your home it requires immediate attention to minimize further loss and damage. You may be surprised to hear that people who call Southwest

Florida water damage restoration companies about a plumbing leak do not know how to shut off the water in their own home. Everyone, including renters, should know where the main shut off is for the

Central Florida water in your home. So the first step on a Pine Island plumbing leak is to shut off the water. When the source of a Pine Island plumbing leak is behind a wall or in the

ceiling call a plumber to fix the problem. Call a reputable local Pine Island water damage extraction and drying company to remove the water and dry all building materials and personal

possessions that may have been wet by the Pine Island leak. While you are waiting for the drying company to arrive move what you are able to into an unaffected room and protect valuables,

delicate items and important documents. Pick what ever you can up off the wet floors. Call your insurance company and report the loss. Take lots of pictures for your insurance adjuster.

Most important is that standing Pine Island water must be extracted and wet materials must be dried out completely and as quickly as possible. Wet carpeting, wood and drywall are a breeding

ground for viruses, bacteria and Pine Island mold. Pine Island Mold can begin to grow on wet building materials and personal possessions in as little as 24 to 48 hours. The Southwest

Florida water damage extraction and drying company will remove most of the water by extraction and then complete the drying process with air movement and dehumidification. Once the humidity in a

wet home is stabilized at 55% or less, Pine Island mold will not grow.
