You’re dealing with a Taylor TX water leak in your home.

This unfortunately means that you’ve got days, if not weeks of work ahead of you.

You’ll need to mop and dry up, or worse, pump the water out your home. And once that’s done, you’ll still need to thoroughly dry out the flooded carpet, baseboards, walls, and furniture thoroughly, or you’ll be dealing with some serious water damage and mold growth.

Let’s say you’ve had a recent outbreak of mold in your home. Maybe a pipe broke and sprayed water everywhere, or your roof may have had a leak.

Whatever the reason, mold spores found new life in the extra moisture inside your home, and started to grow rapidly.

You’ve cleaned and dried up everything you can, and you’ve used multiple dehumidifiers to remove the moisture from the air.

Has that water damage always been there? Or did it just happen? It’s wise to figure out if water damage is new or old, so that you know how extensive the damage may be, and what you need to do to stop the water intrusion.

Step One: Determine Materials

Water effects different materials in different ways.

If you have experienced a flood or a spill, you may be wondering how long it will take for mold to grow in your carpet. In other words, how long do you have to get this mess cleaned up?

Typically, mold growth in carpets begins 24 to 48 hours after they get wet. You should seek to dry your carpet in that time or call in the professionals to do it for you.

Hardwood flooring is a beautiful, modern flooring option that almost all home owners prefer. Unfortunately, these floors are also vulnerable to water damage.
