Theme of the Month - May

During May, SERVPRO of Daviess County, Kentucky is highlighting what over 50% of our jobs involve: Water Damage.  

When we receive a call about a new fire job, we know there is probably some type of water cleanup needed on top of fire and soot damage. You do not think about it, but the water used to douse the blaze is creating a different type of damage. Now there is water and fire damage in the home or business.  

When these water issues are not addressed in a timely manner, mold can start sprouting also. With mold taking 72 hours to start setting up, so it is important to call the professionals quickly.

Below are 5 Ways To Avoid Water Damage:

• Looking under kitchen appliances regularly for any slow leaks
• Look for basement leaks
• Watch for water bill usage spikes
• Regularly replace washing machine, dishwasher and refrigerator hoses.
• Turn your downspouts to pour away from your home or business
