If you find yourself in need of professional water damage services, never hesitate to get help for your home.

SERVPRO of Bridgewater Can Lend Some Advice Toward Your DIY Water Damage Fix

Remediating sudden water damage can be intimidating. Imagine a scenario where your sink suddenly sprang a leak in your bathroom, due to old plumbing. With the help of a plumber, the leak can be stopped, but the mess would still remain behind.

So, what can you do about the water damage in your Bridgewater bathroom? Thankfully, small amounts of water can be cleaned up with relative ease and without too much worry. However, it is crucial to go beyond mopping up a puddle and then calling it a day.

What Supplies Do I Need?
To clean up the water in your bathroom, you must go beyond a mop and bucket. You might need supplies such as:

    •    A space heater
    •    Fans
    •    A dehumidifier

When SERVPRO technicians remediate water damage, we use advanced industry-grade technology. However, an average civilian can still have access to basic supplies. Setting up an environment where warm and dry air can circulate can help ensure excess moisture evaporates.

What Signs of Water Damage Should I Look Out For?
Sometimes our plans don't always work out. A DIY project can fail and leave you with a more significant problem later. Once your bathroom seems dry, keep your eyes on the area for a few days and look out for:

    •    Cracked or uneven tile
    •    Baseboard swelling
    •    Musty smells

Water damage usually presents signs that can be simple to see once you know what to look for. Should you suspect that your DIY remediation did not go as planned, immediately get help. Professional cleanup and restoration companies, such as SERVPRO, can still help you.
