water damage from overheated pipe in ceiling

The summer is full of fun activities, but the conditions can also lead to major property damage. Both mold and water damage can occur because of humidity and heat. If you find mold growth in your crawlspace or water damage caused by a leak in your roof, don’t hesitate to have the area repaired right away.

Summers may not always be humid, depending on the area in which you live, but even a little rain can lead to increased humidity. During a dry season, increased water usage can also cause pipes to crack, leak, and even burst.

Never hesitate to call a water damage restoration or mold removal professional as soon as you notice water or mold damage in your home. SERVPRO of Northwest Long Beach is available 24/7 to respond to emergencies and will schedule appointments for mold removal services. Our trained professionals will dry out the affected area, remove any soiled building materials, and dry out the remaining building materials. They can also advise you on how to avoid the issue from reoccurring in the future.
