Water Damage From Water Heater

Is your water heater getting older? Better to have a plumber inspect it sooner rather than later to avoid a disaster! However, if it's too late and your water heater has failed, call SERVPRO of Mission Viejo! Water damage from a failed water heater can travel far and quickly throughout your home or business. Some areas may not appear wet, but water "wicks" up very quickly into the drywall, causing further damage that may not be visible. Our crew at SERVPRO of Mission Viejo are water damage expert. Our team uses carefully calibrated "moisture meters" to determine how far the water has traveled. A display of "999" means your wall is saturated and must be removed as soon as possible to avoid bacterial growth. SERVPRO of Mission Viejo extracts the water, removes the damaged flooring and drywall, sets up drying equipment, and rechecks moisture levels frequently, until all areas are dry. Upon completion of drying, SERVPRO of Mission Viejo's construction team then restores the affected areas to "Like it Never Even Happened".
