Wet Carpets in San Mateo County

8/4/2020 (Permalink)

SERVPRO of South San Francisco City/ San Bruno provided water extraction to wet carpets that have been affected by water damage from a sink overflow.

Scenario: You just get home from a long day at work. The dog hears the door open and is eagerly anticipating your arrival. You hang your keys up on the wall and take your shoes off.  

And there it is. Your first step on the carpet. Your entire sock is soaked with water. Your first guess might be the wagging tail of your little companion. But as it turns out its something much worse. 

Water damages can be sudden. And it never happens when you expect it to. When you find that a water loss occurs on your property it is important that you find the source of the leak.  

The key is to stop the water from creating further damage. Depending on where the leak originates from, this can be as easy as finding the shut off valve to cut off the source of water. However, there are safety concerns you must be aware of before investigating any further.  

Electricity and water do not mix. In fact, it could be fatal.  

If you are uncomfortable with finding the source or have questions in regards to next steps, SERVPRO of South San Francisco City/ San Bruno is here to help.  

Trust our highly trained and professional technicians to help get your home back to normal.  

Our trained staff will: 

1) Find the extent of the damage. 

2) Stop the source from causing further issues. 

3) Utilize best-in-class equipment and training to properly mitigate the water from spreading in the property.
