Fire & Water - Cleanup & Restoration

Florence Home Flooded by Water Intrusion from Heavy Rains?

4/3/2023 (Permalink)

Rain falls during the day. We restore storm damage 24 hours a day in Lane County.

Our South Eugene and Florence teams witness firsthand how quickly water can damage a home or building. Water is invasive, and the longer the conditions allowing the rainwater to enter a structure remain uncorrected, the greater the chances for more significant damage, resulting in costly and time-consuming repairs. Here is a water damage timeline from our website that describes the damage water can do within minutes and up to one week:

Within Minutes

  • Water quickly spreads throughout your property, saturating everything in its path
  • Water is absorbed into walls, floors, upholstery, and belongings
  • Furniture finishes may bleed, causing permanent staining on carpets
  • Photographs, books, and other paper goods start to swell and warp

Hours 1 - 24:

  • Drywall begins to swell and break down
  • Metal surfaces begin to tarnish
  • Furniture begins to swell and crack
  • Dyes and inks from cloth and paper goods spread and stain
  • A musty odor appears

48 Hours to 1 Week:

  • Mold and mildew may grow and spread
  • Doors, windows, and studs swell and warp
  • Metal begins to rust and corrode
  • Furniture warps and shows signs of mold
  • Paint begins to blister
  • Wood flooring swells and warps
  • Serious biohazard contamination is possible
