Naples floods or leaks in your home it require immediate attention

Anytime Naples water floods or leaks into your home it requires immediate attention to minimize further loss and damage. You may be surprised to hear that people who call Southwest

Florida water damage restoration companies about a plumbing leak do not know how to shut off the water in their own home. Everyone, including renters, should know where the main shut off is for the

Central Florida water in your home. So the first step on a Naples plumbing leak is to shut off the water. When the source of a Naples plumbing leak is behind a wall or in the

ceiling call a plumber to fix the problem. Call a reputable local Naples water damage extraction and drying company to remove the water and dry all building materials and personal

possessions that may have been wet by the Naples leak. While you are waiting for the drying company to arrive move what you are able to into an unaffected room and protect valuables,

delicate items and important documents. Pick what ever you can up off the wet floors. Call your insurance company and report the loss. Take lots of pictures for your insurance adjuster.

Most important is that standing Naples water must be extracted and wet materials must be dried out completely and as quickly as possible. Wet carpeting, wood and drywall are a breeding

ground for viruses, bacteria and Naples mold. Naples Mold can begin to grow on wet building materials and personal possessions in as little as 24 to 48 hours. The Southwest

Florida water damage extraction and drying company will remove most of the water by extraction and then complete the drying process with air movement and dehumidification. Once the humidity in a

wet home is stabilized at 55% or less, Naples mold will not grow.

Here are some tips to help the process:

- Towel up small amounts of water from tiled and wood floors

- Wipe moisture from wood furniture and table tops

- Remove pictures and breakables to an unaffected room

- Turn on the A/C to help dehumidify the indoor air

- If tiled floors are flooded squeegee the water out the door

- Remove area rugs to garage or lanai

- Put plastic wrap under wood furniture legs on carpets

- Punch tiny holes in sagging ceilings to drain water into a bucket

- Do not operate anything electrical while standing in water

- Take lots of pictures for your insurance adjuster

When the Naples extraction and drying company has removed all the water and set up drying equipment do not shut the equipment off. The process pulls moisture out of the walls, floors and

furnishings by making the air very dry. This creates a static pressure difference that sucks the water out of wet materials into the air where dehumidifiers condense that moisture and pump it into

a drain. If you shut off the equipment the humidity level will rise and the drying process stops.

Only when all the materials inside your home are completely dry are you assured that Naples mold growth will not occur. The expert Naples Water Extraction and drying company

will also treat surfaces that were wet with microbial inhibitors. This is a further safeguard against Naples mold growth.

Be sure that you employ an Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration, (IICRC), certified Naples Water damage professional Remediation Company that follows industry guidelines for

your safety and health.
