Residential Water Damage Restoration
Homes hold water in finishes, storage and mechanical areas at the same time. Residential restoration balances technical drying with the practical reality that people still need to live in or return to the property.
Common causes
- Appliance and fixture leaks
- Basement intrusion during storms
- Frozen pipes in exterior walls
- Roof and window leaks
Warning signs
- Stained ceilings and peeling paint
- Warped flooring at seams
- Damp smell in closets or storage rooms
- Recurring condensation on windows
