Water Damage Services

Call J. Benson quickly to minimize the following water damage:

* In Minutes:  Water spreads rapidly increasing damage and cost dramatically; Walls, floors, ceilings, and contents begin to absorb water which can later lead to staining, swelling, and warping, electrical shorts can occur and cause damage. 

* In Hours:  Damage and cost increase; walls, floors, ceilings, and contents begin to stain, swell, and warp; furniture in direct contact with water delaminates, swells, legs begin to split; sheetrock swells and disintegrates; bacterial odor (sour) becomes apparent.

* In Days:  Damage and cost increase significantly; MOLD AND MILDEW appears along with “musty” odor; internal components in pianos and organs begins to rust; wood structures (door and window casings, decking, joist, studs) begin to swell, warp and split; electronic components exposed to excess condensation malfunction.

* In Weeks: Damage and costs escalate dramatically; Mildew associated with prolonged dampness sinks roots in organic material (jute backings, paper coverings on sheetrock, paneling wood, etc.); wood components warp and split, while chemicals within the wood are dissolved and discolor or destroy finishes; rot can begin.
