Whether your water damage is the result of broken pipes, blocked drains, extreme weather, or faulty appliances, no matter what it can be an emotional and financial burden. If proper steps are not taken early, long term mold and moisture problems may spread to wood surfaces, ceiling tiles, wallpaper, paint, carpet, sheet rock, insulation and the damage can become very expensive to fix.
All of Element's certified disaster technicians are trained in the most up to date water extraction techniques and use only the most advanced drying technologies.

What to do if you ever have water damage:
- Use dehumidifiers if the outside temperature is above 60 degrees
- If damage occurs during “heating season” keep temperature/thermostat no higher than 68 degrees. Turning heat higher will increase risk of mold growth.
- If damage occurs during the warmer months, use an air conditioner if available.
- Use fans to circulate the air which assists drying
- Remove as much water as possible by mopping and blotting
- Wipe furniture dry
- Lift draperies off carpet, loop through a coat hanger, and place the hanger on the drapery rod
- Prop up wet furniture cushions for even drying and place small wood blocks or aluminum foil under furniture legs
- Remove wet area rugs or other floor coverings
- Open furniture drawers, closet doors and luggage to enhance drying
- Move photos, paintings and art objects to a safe, dry location
- Remove wet fabrics and dry them as soon as possible. Hang furs and leather goods to dry separately at room temperature
- Remove damp books from shelves and spread out to dry
