Problems with Sewer Spills

Sewer flooding is not only nasty, it’s hazardous. Black or grey water pollution carries pathogens that can result in infection. Backup resulting from sewer clogs can be considered a crisis and should be handled immediately.

Appliance Malfunctions & Broken Plumbing

If your faucet, bathtub, washing machine or other appliance leaks, the outcome can range from annoying to devastating. Stagnant flooding on the floor can drain into the foundation, and pool in out-of-reach places. You then cause floor damage and harbor mold contamination. If your water damage starts from bathroom or dishwasher overflow, you additionally risk fostering pathogens. Have a specialist investigate the area to prevent more expenses later on.
