Weekend Water Damage

7/24/2020 (Permalink)

This picture is of a laundry room with water pouring out of the washer onto the floor. We're one call away to help save the day and make it "Like it never even happened."

Waking up to water damage on a Saturday morning is never a good start to the day. Our weekends are busy with chores and getting the kids off to practice. The last thing you want to deal with is unwanted water in your home. That's where the professional at SERVPRO of Indianapolis West can help. Our water restoration crews are always available on weekends to come to save the day at your home or business.

We received a call on a Saturday morning from a homeowner in Speedway, IN, with a busted water supply line to the washing machine. Water sprayed throughout the laundry room, and the homeowner said the drywall and floors were saturated. Unfortunately, the laundry room was on the second floor of the home, and you know what that means? Yes, the water drains down and affects the ceiling and carpet below.

SERVPRO To The Rescue

It's good that the Speedway homeowner called us because this type of water damage is something we see and deal with all the time. Our crews have the experience and knowledge to immediately mitigate the problem. We have advanced and specialized equipment to detect where hidden water may be and remove it to dry your property fast and efficiently.

This particular call came in at 8:30 am Saturday morning, and by 10am, our crews were on-site to begin. Water and fire damages don't always wait for regular business hours. That's why we always have teams standing by to react to your call. We're always open for business, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and even on holidays. Getting the water out as fast as possible and drying your property is critical to lessen the damages and essential to a healthy home.

Check The Machine And Change The Lines

It's essential to check around your washing machine for any signs of water leakage. This homeowner's water damage was due to a busted supply line, but there are many ways a washing machine can fail and cause damage to your Indianapolis home. Check the water hookup, water drainage, and around the door for signs of water leaking.

Pressurized water supply lines are one of the leading reasons that a home may suffer a flood. Take time to inspect your washing machine supply lines. It's recommended to replace them every five years, and especially if they appear cracked or show signs of deterioration. If you have the rubber hoses, you should consider replacing those with more reliable metal braided lines. You could be saving yourself time and money, and your home from damage.

If You Need Water Removal

If you should suffer water damage from a faulty washing machine, a broken water pipe, appliance failure, or sewer backup, it's essential to quickly call us to ensure the water is removed and the home cleaned. The longer you wait and the more time passes, the more damage the water can cause, and not to mention the evil four-letter word, "mold" may begin to grow.

Whether it's in the middle of the night, on the weekend, or during the holidays, SERVPRO of Indianapolis West is always available to handle any water damage emergency. SERVPRO of Indianapolis West can help clean up the water damage and return your home back to normal.
