Do you know what to do if you notice the early signs of water damage? If not, you’re in good company. Many homeowners aren’t quite sure how to handle water damage—and when it’s the right time to call a restoration service.

If it’s caught early, water can often be cleaned up with towels or a mop and bucket. But many homeowners are unsure when a leak and the resulting water problems become an issue that merits professional remediation help.

And that’s important because minutes can matter during a water damage emergency. Water can start to cause permanent damage to your home within just a few hours.

Know the Signs of Serious Water Damage

When your home needs water remediation services from a professional, you might notice these signs:

You pick up on a musty odor. Smell can be among the first signs of mold damage, meaning if you notice a peculiar or persistent odor, it’s time to call in a professional to help you deal with remediation issues.

Your windows or walls are damaged. Wood in your home, like your window panes and walls, can start to warp as water damage progresses. That means it’s vital to get remediation help if you notice these signs.

The floorboards or furniture start to warp. Wet wood will start to warp within days. If that happens in your home, it’s best to start seeking help from professionals who can help you restore your home.
