Tip of the week

This photo shows mold growth on wood paneling due to water damage.

Happy Monday!

Over the weekend our crew at SERVPRO of Southwest Waukesha County went to a job site that had water damage.  The homeowner was out of town, but a neighbor was watching the house and discover that a pipe had burst.  There was water all on the carpet and pad as well as the furniture in the room was damaged by the water.

Our crew discovered that there was more than water damage at this property; mold had started to grow on the wall and other content in the room

This is a reminder to shut off your water if you will be gone for a long period of time.  You never know if a pipe would burst or a toilet would overflow while you are gone.
