Water Damage with Time

It’s important to understand the timeline of water damage and how quickly it can spread throughout a property. 

Within minutes, water can saturate everything in its path this includes

• Walls
• Floors
• Upholstery
• Belongings

Furniture finishes may bleed, causing permanent staining on carpets, photographs, books and other paper goods that may start to swell and warp.

Within hours

• Drywall May begin to swell and breakdown
• Metal Surfaces may tarnish
• Furniture may also begin to swell and crack
• Dyes and Inks from cloth and paper goods can spread and stain.
• A musty odor may appear

Between 48 hours to a week

• Mold and Mildew may start to grow and spread
• Doors, windows, and studs may swell and warp
• Metal may begin to rust and corrode
• Furniture may warp and show signs of mold
• Paint may also begin to blister
• Wood Flooring may swell and warp

Serious biohazard contamination is also possible. If left untreated for more than a week, restoration time and cost can increase dramatically, and replacing contaminated materials and structural rebuilding may be extensive. Structural safety, mold growth, and biohazard contaminants can also pose serious risks to occupants. That’s why it’s crucial to act quickly when faced with water damage and contact a professional restoration company like SERVPRO of Billings for immediate assistance.
