Water-Damaged Floors Need More Than a Quick Dry-Out
When water hits your floors, it doesn’t just sit on the surface—it seeps down fast. Whether it’s from a burst pipe, overflowing appliance, or floodwater creeping in from outside, floor damage moves fast and causes lasting problems. At 247-Restoration, we know that dealing with floor water damage means dealing with more than wet boards or soggy carpet. It’s about protecting your home or business from structural damage, warping, microbial threats, and costly repairs down the road.
Why Water Damage to Floors Is a Serious Threat
Water damage is deceptive. While surface water may be cleaned up, hidden moisture can wreak havoc. Water can penetrate:
- Subfloors and underlayment
- Wall seams and baseboards
- Carpet padding and furniture bases
- Tile grout and vinyl adhesives
This unseen water can lead to:
- Warped hardwood boards
- Buckled laminate flooring
- Trapped moisture under tiles
- Rotting subfloors
Our team specializes in identifying and addressing these hidden issues to prevent long-term damage and costly repairs.
