Flooding can cause a lot of damage to your property and if you have wooden flooring, it is important to begin the drying process as soon as possible. As part of our dedicated service we provide wood floor water damage restoration.
After a flood or water damage to wood, wood can warp and expands causing it to buckle and become uneven. Depending on the severity of the flood, the wood may have warped or has swollen significantly, we will be able to assess and advise you on whether the water damaged wood needs to be replaced. We will then dry the surrounding area ensuring that we eliminate moisture content and accelerate the drying process using fans and dehumidifiers.
Upon assessment, we will do our best to repair and salvage as much of your flooring as possible as long as it is safe to do so. The problem is that damp wood swells and cups, which means it no longer fits and begins to affect the entire floor. We can remedy this with an extraction and drying system which removes moisture content from the wood allowing them to re-settle. Another problem which can arise with wet or damp timber is that if it is not properly dried and aired, mould can set it and the timber will remain damp and cause dry rot. This can cause a number of problems such as infestation of mites and insects to more serious structural issues with your building in the longer term. Another serious issue here is that it will unknowingly affect the quality of air in the space, with mildew particles affecting the air. We want to help you avoid this problem. This is why our highly skilled and experienced team will work diligently to inspect, assess and restore your flooring to its former condition where possible using our state of the art equipment to extract, dry and filter the air to ensure that all problems consistent with water damaged wood are addressed, to ensure a clean and dry future for your home or space and those within it.
We will assess, extract water and dehumidify the space ensuring that the area is completely dry. We will continue to test and monitor through this important stage of the drying process as it is essential that all moisture and dampness has been eliminated before restoring floorboards and structural materials.
