Do I Need Skilled Restoration if My Dishwasher Leaked in My Lenoir City Home?

Dishwashers are common causes of water damage. It doesn't take long for a small leak to damage your flooring material.

SERVPRO's Water Damage Restoration Efforts Addresses Initial Cleanup and Moisture Detection to Lessen Damage to Your Lenoir City Home

Part of being a homeowner includes realizing that some accidents are unavoidable. If you have a dishwasher that springs a leak, you could end up with water under your cabinetry and seeping down underneath flooring into your subfloor. Depending on your dishwasher's location or any other appliance that leaks, you may also have water that migrates into different spaces within your Lenoir City home. Rather than underestimating the impact of a faulty device that leaks, you can call in the help of trained restoration professionals to handle the water damage.

Innovative water damage restoration in Lenoir City is an area where we thrive at SERVPRO. Once you call our qualified water restoration team, we will arrive quickly to begin the assessment to get started with water cleanup efforts.

What Impact Will This Have on My Floors?

Whenever excessive moisture and humidity is present, it can bring on a range of issues. The initial line of defense is to make sure that your space's relative humidity levels get returned to normal. Once we extract any standing water, we begin drying with the help of dehumidifiers and air movers. Our skilled technicians monitor moisture levels throughout and adjust accordingly to help achieve our drying goals. Failing to address water intrusion promptly could lead to several issues with your flooring, such as:

• Delamination, or the separation of layers, of engineered flooring from excess humidity
• Cupping comes about with humidity changes, which is a dip in the planks of the floor
• Buckling often happens when hardwood flooring begins to separate from the subfloor when humidity levels are high
