As those of you in the tri-state area know, Westchester county was hit with some pretty severe storms a few weeks ago. With any severe rainstorm, water damage calls always seem to follow. But many people dont realize that we receive calls, weeks after the storm has passed, from customers who are concerned about musty or mildew-like smells in their homes. When your property has been affected by water damage, the most important piece of advice I always give is to be sure that any area that got wet, is dryed COMPLETELY. Often, homeowners ignore water damage. Some assume it will dry on it's own, some attempt to dry the area themselves, others ignore the problem entirely. Wherever water has infiltrated your home has the potential to grow mold if the problem was not addressed properly. If you do smell a musty or mildew-like odor coming from an area that was affected by water damage, please remember that the odor could be an indicator of new problems, such as mold. If you do suspect mold in your home, take the proper precautions and call a professional. I always say, it's easier to deal with 1 problem than it is to deal with 2 problems. If your property is damaged by water, be sure it's dryed completely. A professional restoration company will test the area, verify which areas were affected (drywall, baseboards, carpet, padding, furniture, hardwood floors, etc.), and act accordingly. Dont let water damage lead to mold problems. Certain types of mold can make you very sick. Why take a chance with your health and the health of your family?
