Whitney and the EMS team are so helpful. Had a water leak that caused mold from a previous owner and when we bought the house it didn't show itself for weeks. Once we found the mold, EMS dried everything out and took care of us! Knowledgeable and friendly.

Frequently Asked Questions
? What should I do first after water damage occurs?

Act fast to immediately stop the water source if safe, and contact your insurance company to start the claims process. It’s also crucial to document the damage with photos for evidence.

? What are the common signs of hidden water damage?

Hidden water damage often manifests in subtle ways before becoming a major issue. You might notice discoloration or dark spots on ceilings and walls, a musty or moldy smell, or peeling paint and wallpaper. Another telltale sign is unexpectedly high water bills, which could indicate a leak. Regular inspections, especially after heavy rain or plumbing issues, can help catch hidden damage early.

? How does structural drying work after water damage?

Professionals use specialized equipment like dehumidifiers and fans to remove excess water and moisture from building materials.

? What should I do if flood waters enter my home?

Prioritize safety and evacuate if necessary. Do not touch or walk through the floodwater. Contact emergency services and your utility company to shut off electricity if needed and seek high ground until authorities say it’s safe.

? What happens during water damage mitigation?

Mitigation covers the emergency phase: water extraction, structural drying and dehumidification, sanitizing to prevent mold, and a documented assessment of the damage. If materials have to be rebuilt afterward, that’s the restoration phase — EMS coordinates the handoff to a qualified restoration contractor. Learn more on our Mitigation vs. Restoration page.

? What makes Fire Awareness Month significant?

October is National Fire Prevention Month, which provides an opportunity to emphasize home and workplace fire safety. By raising awareness and promoting prevention, the aim is to lower the risk of property damage and injuries from fire.

? What are the most frequent reasons why homes catch fire?

Unattended candles, heating equipment, electrical failures, cooking mishaps, and smoking materials are the main reasons.

? How can I prevent fire threats in my house or place of business?
  • Install smoke detectors on each floor and test them frequently.
  • Keep fire extinguishers close at hand in strategic locations, such as the garage and kitchen.
  • Don’t use broken cords or overload outlets.
  • Every year, have your electrical, HVAC, and chimney systems inspected.
  • Together with your family or staff, develop and rehearse a fire escape plan.
? How frequently should smoke detectors be changed?

Smoke alarms should have their batteries checked once a month and be replaced every ten years.

? What should I do in the event that a fire starts?

Get out of the building right away, dial 911, and don’t return to retrieve any belongings. Close doors behind you if you can to prevent the fire from spreading.

? How long does the water damage restoration process typically take?
The duration of the water damage restoration process can vary based on the extent and type of damage. Typically, water extraction and drying can take 3-5 days for moderate situations. However, the overall restoration, which includes repairs, replacing damaged items, and addressing potential mold issues, can extend the process to several weeks. It’s crucial to work with professionals who can provide a clear timeline based on your specific circumstances.
? Will my insurance cover the costs of water damage restoration?
Whether your insurance covers water damage restoration largely depends on the cause of the damage and the specifics of your policy. Generally, sudden and accidental damages, like a burst pipe, are often covered. However, gradual damages, such as leaks that have been ignored over time, may not be. It’s essential to review your policy, understand the coverage limits, and maintain regular communication with your insurance provider to ensure a smooth claims process.
? What items can I salvage from water damage?
You may salvage personal belongings, such as furniture, electronics, and items you can clean and dry correctly. However, porous materials like carpets might need replacement.
? Should I attempt to remove the water myself?

DIY attempts might miss hidden moisture, leading to mold and structural damage. It is best to rely on professional water extraction and restoration services for safety and thoroughness.

? What causes pipes to freeze?

When temperatures fall below 32°F (0°C), pipes freeze, particularly if they are exposed to cold air or are uninsulated in crawl spaces, basements, attics, or exterior walls.

? What would happen if a pipe froze?

Water expands as it freezes, creating pressure inside the pipe that may cause breaks or bursts and expensive water damage.

? What are some ways to keep pipes from freezing?
  • In colder parts of your house, insulate exposed pipes.
  • To allow warm air to circulate near pipes, keep cabinet doors open.
  • To keep water flowing in extremely cold weather, let faucets drip a little.
  • Even while you’re not there, keep the temperature inside at or above 55°F.
  • Close any openings or crevices that allow cold air to enter close to pipes.
? If I think my pipes might be frozen, what should I do?

Immediately cut off the water supply. Never use an open flame to gently reheat the frozen portion; instead, use a space heater or hair drier. Get in touch with a qualified plumber immediately if you are unable to find the frozen area or if it has already exploded.

? When is the right time to contact a professional?

To avoid more damage, it is preferable to contact a qualified plumber if you see low water pressure, obvious leaks, or are unable to find or safely defrost the frozen region.
