Whatever the cause or amount of flood damage in your business, Paul Davis Emergency Services act fast and professionally. Learn more about some of the most frequent causes of flood damage here:

Bad Weather

Heavy rainfall will put any building's foundation on trial. If storms get dangerous, water becomes a destructive element. Whether it's a flash flood, tornado, or blizzard, if water hits your property, it becomes a grave issue. No one can be ready for every scenario, but if water damage strikes, you'll have our expertise.

Cellar Flooding

Basements are magnets for runoff water, whether from rain, roof damage, a broken sump pump, or some other source. It only takes one crack in the cellar for moisture to flow in. Paul Davis professionals are highly trained to eliminate water from cellars, clean and restore your home goods, and dry everything quickly to minimize damage. Our team doesn't rest until we have confirmed that the job is complete.

Sewer Spills & Problems

Sewer flooding is not only nasty, it's a health concern. Grey or black water contamination contains toxins that may lead to infection. Backup from sewer blockages should be considered a crisis and should be handled right away. Qualified Paul Davis emergency responders inspect and remove the damage from the source and all stagnant water damage may have occurred. Our technology and specialized education will solve the problem with safety and speed.

Broken Plumbing & Appliance Malfunctions

If a faucet, bathtub, water heater or other appliance breaks, the outcome can range from bothersome to devastating. Stagnant water on the floor can drain into tight spots, collecting in out of reach places. You may cause wood damage and harbor a mold invasion. If your water damage comes from sewage or dishwasher malfunction, you additionally risk harboring pathogens. Have an emergency professional inspect the area to prevent additional costs later on.

Water after Fire Damage

It's bad enough for a property to take on fire damage, but it's worse to be left with water damage after the blaze. In the process of extinguishing a home fire, your home or business 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 all fire or water damage remaining.
