COMMON CAUSES OF WATER DAMAGE
Water damage can strike unexpectedly, leaving property owners overwhelmed with costly repairs and potential health hazards. Whether caused by natural disasters or household mishaps, even a small amount of standing water can lead to structural damage, mould growth, and air quality issues. Below are the most common causes of water damage and why taking immediate action is essential:
- Storms and Heavy Rain – Severe weather can lead to flooding, roof leaks, and water seeping into your home through cracks and weak points.
- Burst Pipes – A sudden pipe burst can release large amounts of water, damaging walls, flooring, and furniture within minutes.
- Washing Machine or Dishwasher Overflows – Faulty hoses or clogged drains can cause water to overflow, soaking nearby areas and leading to mould growth.
- Bathtub or Sink Overflows – Leaving a tap running or a clogged drain can quickly cause water to spill onto floors, soaking carpets and damaging wooden surfaces.
- Sewage Backup – Blocked drains or sewer line issues can push contaminated water back into your property, creating a hazardous environment.
- Fire Extinguishing Efforts – When fires are put out with water, the leftover moisture can lead to extensive water damage, requiring thorough drying and restoration.
- Leaky Roofs and Gutters – Damaged or clogged gutters can cause water to overflow, leading to leaks inside the property and potential structural damage.
Ignoring water damage can lead to structural deterioration, mould infestations, and costly repairs. Acting quickly and relying on professional water damage restoration services is the best way to protect your property. At Flood Services Australia, we provide expert flood damage restoration and wet carpet cleaning service, using advanced equipment to extract water, dry affected areas, and prevent further damage.
