Severe Storms

Serious weather can test any structure’s integrity. If weather becomes dangerous, water becomes a destructive element. Whether it’s a flash flood, hurricane, or winter storm, if water harms your home or business, it’s a serious problem. Nobody is prepared for every scenario, but if water damage strikes, you can rely on Paul Davis.

Subterranean Flooding

Cellars are a target for runoff water, whether from rain, a leaky roof, a damaged sump pump, or some other source. It just takes a single crack in the cellar for moisture to invade. Paul Davis professionals are highly trained to eliminate water from cellars, clean and preserve your home goods, and dry everything quickly to minimize damage. We don’t quit until we verify that the work is done.

Sewer Leaks & Problems

Sewer flooding is not just gross, it’s a health concern. Grey or black water contamination contains pathogens that may result in infection. Flooding from sewer blockages should be considered an emergency and should be handled right away. Trained Paul Davis technicians inspect and eliminate the damage from the backup and any standing water damage may have occurred. Our equipment and specialized training will fix the hazard with efficiency and quality.

Broken Plumbing & Appliance Malfunctions

If your faucet, tub, water heater or any other appliance floods, the outcome can vary from irritating to hazardous. Standing water left on the floor can drain into the foundation, collecting in hard-to-reach areas. You may cause wood damage and harbor a mold invasion. If your water damage comes from toilet or dishwasher malfunction, you additionally risk spreading pathogens. Have a specialist investigate the situation to prevent more costs later on.

Water after Fire Damage

It’s tragic enough for your home or business to take on fire damage, but it’s even worse to be stuck with water damage after the blaze. In the steps of killing an indoor fire, your property may be left soaked. Such a one-two punch of home damage can leave your space devastated. Paul Davis Emergency Services has the training to eliminate any fire or water damage remaining.
