<p><em><strong>When water pipes cause flood damage.</strong></em> <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/gee01/5283787934/">(Photo Credits)</a></p>
<p>A bursting water pipe is a common source of flood damage in any home or commercial property. The initial raction and response of a homeowner can help in minimizing the damage that it may bring about. <a href="http://flood.ace1restoration.com/">San Diego, CA </a></p>
<p>AA Blog shared some of the things the property owner must do while waiting for the emergency plumber to arrive.</p>
<p>“Turn off the water. Drain the pipe of water by turning on all cold taps and flushing all your toilets. Then switch off the water heating system and turn on all hot taps to help drain the water supply system. Simply put, when there is no water left in the pipe the leaking will subside. Prevent further damage. If the leak is coming through your ceiling, place a bucket under the problem area to prevent the spread of any further damage. Exercise caution. If a leak has gone unnoticed for a period of time in the attic, upstairs floors and ceilings may become unstable due to the weight of retained water. Never walk across a bulging floor as it could give way.”</p>

<h2>Initial Response</h2>
<p>The website The Desperate Houselife emphasized the importance in seeking professional help during these times so as to avid further expenses brought about by flood damage.</p>
<p>“Unless your husband has experience with plumbing, you’ll need to call a professional. That is especially the case if you live in a rented property. Your landlord will want to see the official documentation that proves the work was carried out by a licensed expert. There should be many home repairs specialists in your local area. You just might have to get their contact details using your smartphone. Your laptop and WiFi connection aren’t going to work without any power. Once the professionals have fixed the pipes, you can start to clean up. It took me around six hours to get things back to normal. That is because the water damaged so much of our stuff. There are companies you can call if you need a hand. The people working for those firms are specially trained in ensuring no dangerous bacteria is left behind.”</p>

<h3>Frozen Pipes can Burst Too</h3>
<p>British website Sure Stop also reminded its readers that frozen pipes can also burst, and subsequently cause flood damage.</p>
<p>“Frozen pipes occur more often in winter. A harsh drop in temperature causes the water passing through the pipes to freeze and expand, potentially leading to a burst pipe and flooding. A burst pipe, if left alone, can flood your home at a rate of 400 litres per hour. At the first sign of any water damage, it is important to turn your water supply off to prevent any further damage. If reading this article has got you thinking Stopcock, where’s that? Go check, incase of an emergency you will be prepared.”</p>

<p>Flood water damage does not only come from the usual flooding from outside the home, or from any failure in a home’s plumbing system. It can actually come ffrom above – the ceiling, the roof – which may leak of rain water or snow that has melted out. <a href="http://flood.ace1restoration.com/">Check out Ace1 Website</a></p>
<p>Good Rich Roofing cautioned property owners that there is more damage to a leaking roof, than just the damaged ceiling.</p>
<p>“It’s easier for water to seep through a damaged roof and consequently destroy other parts of the home. Here are several signs of water damage: Bad smell coming from rotting wood or stagnant water; Dark yellow or brown stains on walls or ceilings; Damaged walls or ceilings (e.g., sagging ceiling or warped or buckled walls); Soft, cracked, or cupping floors.” Read the rest of the post <a href="http://www.goodrichroofing.com/what-you-need-to-know-about-water-damage-roof-leaks/">here.</a></p>
<h2>The damage it brings</h2>
<p>Lyon’s contracting says water damage to a home or a commercial property is the main type of damage a roof leak can cause.</p>
<p>“The attic and your ceiling are the first areas that water attacks in your home. Ceiling plaster might expand and bubble and ceiling paint might darken. The water can also damage the nearby walls’ plaster and paint. Long-term roof leaks can also promote mold and mildew growth, which can lead to health issues. Lastly, water can damage your rafters, fascia boards, wall framing, and ceiling joists.”</p>

<h3>What a property owner can do</h3>
<p>Roof Doctor Utah says that to avoid the concern, a property owner should have regular roofing inspections.</p>
<p>“Investing in an inspection by a contractor at the end of every summer is good preventive maintenance. A roofing, siding, landscaping and piping professional are what makes up your ultimate team. Prepping your home for winter is a must, but few people do it. Don’t risk your biggest investment — start planning now for regular checks to ensure a safe home.”</p>
<p>More on this article <a href="http://www.roofdoctorutah.com/prevent-leaking-roofs-water-damage/">here.</a></p>
<p>Once a roof leak is detected it is important that water damage inspections immediately take place so that restoration and remediation can be carried out as early as possible.</p>

<p>“Mold and other fungi are bad for the house and for the occupants. Mold spores are an allergen and some types of molds produce mycotoxins. Decay-causing fungi grow in wood that stays wet for an extended period, causing it to lose strength. In a nutshell, a wet house is soon an unhealthy house and eventually a rotting house. To make matters even worse, such secondary damage may be excluded from coverage on your flood and homeowners insurance.”</p>

<p>“Black water damage is the most hazardous type of water damage and involves water that contains many harmful contaminants including microorganisms, sewage, and human or chemical waste. Flood damage and sewage backups are the most common sources of black water damage and because of the risk to your health, it is highly recommended that you hire a professional to clean up flood damage and any other black water damage because they have the right cleaning products to disinfect the affected surfaces and purify the air to eliminate mold spores and other airborne contaminants. Mold, microorganisms, and toxins from waste materials can result in a range of allergic reactions and extended exposure can even lead to more serious respiratory problems including infections and difficulty breathing.”</p>

<p>“The county administration also had to deal with an archivist’s nightmare: 1,700 boxes of court documents, some dating back to 1795, were damaged, too. Following the storm, the county quickly had the waterlogged records freeze-dried to prevent molding or additional damage and cleaned of dirt to prepare them for digitization.”</p>

<h3>Prevention is the Key in protecting against water damage</h3>
<p>Water Damage Advice shared some tips on how to avoid possible loss of legal documents due to water damage or flooding.</p>
<p>“Sort your documents by the ones that are most important to the ones that are less important. The most important documents will need to be moved as far away from flood damage as possible. This means upstairs or in an attic. You can even go the extra measure of storing them off of the property in a storage unit or a safety deposit box at a bank.”</p>

<p><em><strong>What a homeowner should know about mold growth following a flooding event. <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/vblibrary/4771825575/">(Photo Credits)</a></strong></em></p>
<p>Flooding is already a devastating occurrence, but its aftermath can be equally devastating too. In as little as two days, flooded areas especially homes and establishments can be a breeding ground of molds, if and when these areas have not been dried and aired out properly.</p>
<p>To know if a home or commercial structure has molds, the health of the occupants may have to be observed according to the website Healthy Food Fitness Team. Emergency Flood damage San Diego, CA <a href="http://flood.ace1restoration.com/">Homepage </a></p>
<p><strong>“</strong>When you get chronically exposed to mold, the symptoms are mild at first and become more severe when your body gets overwhelmed. The symptoms are very similar to those of Lyme disease, Celiac disease, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and others so it is easy for doctors to misdiagnose you if they are not familiar with the signs of mold toxicity. Moreover, the treatment for these conditions is different from that of mold toxicity.”</p>
<p>Read the rest of the post <a href="http://www.healthyfood-fitnessteam.com/?p=442">here.</a></p>
<h2>Other signs of mold danger</h2>
<p>Environmental Services Group for its part explained that Frost Build Up could be another warning sign of mold growth in a home or business establishment. Commercial Services San Diego <a href="http://flood.ace1restoration.com/commercial-flood-damage-restoration/">View Here </a></p>
<p><strong>“</strong>Another sign of heat loss is frost buildup on the sheathing inside your garage or attic and it may be worth investigating for its potential to cause problems. Frost on the sheathing of your attic or garage indicates that your roof lacks proper air flow and inadequate air flow can lead to rotten sheathing and mold. Although some roof inspectors argue that a bit of frost in small, contained areas <em>may</em> not be a cause for concern – and in fact may even be expected in older homes – you should contact a trusted roofing professional if you spot any moderate to large areas of frost or any areas with especially thick frost. These can signal a severe problem in your attic or garage space, and eventually lead to rampant mold and mildew growth if left unattended.”</p>

<h3>Signs of Infestation</h3>
<p>AA Action Waterproofing also reminded its readers to look for obvious signs as well.</p>
<p>“Mold may not be seen easily, so you’ll want to know just where to look for it. Look in crawlspaces, particularly dark areas, or areas where you’ve found moisture before and with a flashlight, see if you can spot any mold growth in the area. Periodic checks like this can help you to stop a mold problem before it grows out of control.”</p>

<p><strong><em>Only trust the pros.</em> <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/skdecember/8143885330/">(Photo Credits)</a><br /></strong></p>
<p>When flood damage happens, the common instinct is to either carry out the task single handedly, or hire a company to undertake the chore. Choosing to hire professional services is the right way to go, but the next concern is hot to choose a reliable and competent food damage restoration company. <a href="http://flood.ace1restoration.com/commercial-flood-damage-restoration/">Ace1 Commercial Restoration </a></p>
<p>Wiki Articles gave pointers to guide homes and businesses in hiring the right flood damage professionals.</p>
<p>“Ideally, a homeowner should find a service provider for this type of job before an emergency occurs. This will entail verification of two experts’ credentials followed by interviews with each one. When this job can’t be done before an emergency occurs, a person will also need to have each specialist visit his home for an inspection of the damage before making a hiring decision.”</p>
<p>See more <a href="http://www.wikiarticles.us/hire-the-right-professional-for-water-damage-restoration-service-in-troy/#sthash.JBQIZeIR.dpuf">here.</a></p>
<h2>Up-to-date equipment</h2>
<p>Article Bay also mentioned that a good service provider is fully-equipped with the tools and materials needed to carry out the chore, as quickly and as thoroughly as possible. <a href="http://flood.ace1restoration.com/">Ace1Restoration Home</a> <strong><br /></strong></p>
<p>“A professional flood damage service will be able to use special vacuums to suck the water out of a home before it gets the chance to soak into the floor. They can also use special chemicals throughout the home to prevent the formation of mold if the water did seep in deep enough. It’s best to treat a home for mold problems after a flood, even if the homeowner thinks that they may have avoided any serious water damage. In addition to sucking the water out, a company will be able to dry the floors using towels and will place large fans all over the home. These fans are going to help the floorboards dry out quicker than they would by simply letting them sit for a few days. The quicker a home is dried and treated for potential mold problems, the safer the home will be in the future.”</p>

<h3><strong> </strong>Cost Consideration</h3>
<p>Financial consideration should also be taken into account when choosing the right flood damage professionals.</p>
<p>Skyrock.com noted some of the cost considerations that should be evaluated when choosing a flood damage restoration service.</p>
<p>“The most effective contractor should offer premium high quality services at relatively affordable pricing. It really is ready to go for contractors who have affordable repair quotations yet their services are fantastic. Besides, the best contractor will be able to complete the job inside the contracted time.”</p>

Water damage is not something that a homeowner should take their time dealing with because it can cause mold to form in the future. Mold is a very serious health hazard and it will also jeopardize the structural integrity of a home. Inhaling mold spores is known to cause a number of health problems, especially in young children who don’t have fully developed immune systems just yet.”</p>

<h2>Timely response</h2>
<p>Internet Billboards gave a litany of all the possible health issues that can take place when flood damage is not dealt with quickly and professionally.</p>
<p>“Pools of water around the house can cause the inner surfaces of the basement walls to collect moisture. This moisture leads to the growth of mold. Recognizable due to its black colour, the mold can cause health problems for you, your family and your pets. It can cause you to develop a problem known as the Sick Building Syndrome. This syndrome causes symptoms such as: Dry coughs, Headaches, Bleeding through the nose, Skin rashes, Persistent colds, Infections in the sinuses, Constant flus.”</p>

<h3>Avoid the danger</h3>
<p>Natural News emphasized how important a quick response is, saying sickness and death can just be one of the consequences of flood damage that has not been remediated.</p>
<p>“If there is floodwater in your house or your office, it is imperative that you remove as much water as you possibly can but without exposing yourself to the floodwater itself. So, think safety. For this purpose, you may need extractors, water pumps, or even a wet vacuum to remove the water. Using dehumidifiers and air movers will help facilitate the complete drying of the affected area. After all the water removal, cleaning, and drying, you also need to purify the air to get rid of any lingering harmful molecules that may have gone airborne. Since black water damage poses significant threat to health and safety, it is best to call for the services of a dedicated water damage removal and restoration company. You should understand the notoriety of flood water in terms of mold growth and spore formation. Molds themselves are not harmful. However, the spores they produce tend to get airborne and can get lodged into the inner surfaces of the airway passages. For a healthy individual, this can result in a nagging cough, throat irritation, or even sneezing. However, for an individual who has allergies or asthma, even minute amounts of airborne spore particles can trigger a life-threatening asthma attack that, if unmanaged, can lead to severe respiratory acidosis, difficulty breathing, and death.”</p>

<p>Warnings of a possible flood can alarm just about anyone.</p>
<p>And to survive an incident without an injury or damage to the home or property, the whole household should be prepared. <a href="http://flood.ace1restoration.com/">Ace1 Flood Restoration San Diego </a></p>
<p>British website NFU Mutual gave its readers suggestions on how to prepare for a possible flooding incident.</p>
<p>“There are many events which can lead to flooding such as heavy downpours, persistent rain fall, and high sea levels combined with unsettled weather conditions. Other more localised flooding issues can be down to problems with infrastructure such as poor or blocked drainage systems. Whatever the cause, it is important to be prepared in the possible event of flooding, particularly if you are located within a flood risk area.”</p>

<h2>Preparation is a must</h2>
