The Danger of Water Damage
In not so lucky cases, you might not be as fortunate to catch the water damages as quickly. If a pipe bursts while you are at work, or rain gets through your leaky roof while you are asleep, the water will have a chance to accumulate and sit in your home for hours without your knowledge. This is dangerous for many reasons, including the possibility of mold formation and the gradual breakdown of your house’s structure. Mold will grow in damp, dark areas, so water sitting under your dishwasher from a burst pipe is a breeding ground for mold. Over time, the mold will cause health issues for you and your family. After sitting around for a while, water will seep into wood and other materials that make up your home. These water molecules will weaken the materials it comes in contact with, and this can be incredibly damaging to its overall structure and foundation. For these reasons, it is essential that you call ServiceMaster of the Upstate immediately when you notice water damage in your home.

Water Damage Restoration FAQ
How does water removal work?
It starts with extracting standing water using pumps or vacuums. Then, professionals set up air movers and dehumidifiers to pull moisture out of walls, floors, and the air until everything is completely dry.
How to tell if water damage is permanent?
If you see warping, cracking, or stains that don’t go away, that’s usually permanent damage. Mold growth or a musty smell is another sign that the water has been there too long.
What dries up water quickly?
Industrial fans and dehumidifiers are the fastest way. At home, opening windows, running fans, and using a wet/dry vacuum can help, but professional equipment speeds things up dramatically.
How long will it take my property to dry?
Drying time is determined by a combination of factors, including the location, duration, and source of water; the types of building materials; the weather conditions; and how quickly emergency services begin. While there are no rules to determine how long your property will take to dry, ServiceMaster of the Upstate can tell you it may take between three and five days or more, depending on the conditions.
How do I know when my property is completely dry?
Proper testing with ServiceMaster of the Upstate‘s specialized equipment is the correct way to determine if things are completely dry. Touch alone may be a false indicator.
Do I need to move out of my property during this process?
There are several factors to consider. Safety is paramount. ServiceMaster of the Upstate‘s equipment is as childproof as possible, but we require your supervision to make sure no children play with it. Air movers and dehumidifiers will create noise and make your property drafty for a few days. It is important that the equipment remains on, so if the noise is disruptive to you, you might want to consider an alternate place to stay.
Who is responsible for paying for the service?
Ultimately, you, the property owner, are responsible for payment. As the property owner, you will need to sign a form authorizing the work and payment. If this is an insurance claim, ServiceMaster of the Upstate generally collects only the deductible amount and bills the balance to your insurance provider as a service to you. For more information, please contact ServiceMaster of the Upstate at (864) 310-7891.
