Water overflow, often referred to as a "water overflow event," occurs when a plumbing system or appliance fails to contain and control the flow of water as intended, resulting in an excess of water that spills onto surfaces or areas not designed to handle it. These incidents can happen for various reasons and can range from minor inconveniences to significant property damage.
Common causes of water overflow include malfunctioning or clogged pipes, faulty plumbing fixtures, and appliance failures like washing machines or dishwashers. In many cases, these incidents are preventable with regular maintenance and inspection of plumbing systems. However, unexpected events like extreme weather conditions, power outages, or sudden pressure changes in the water supply can also contribute to water overflow. When water overflows, it can damage flooring, walls, ceilings, and personal belongings, making it crucial to address the issue promptly through water extraction and restoration to prevent further damage and potential health hazards like mold growth.
Tub, Sink & Toilet Water Overflows
An overflowed tub can cause extreme damage to a subfloor, carpet, drywall, ceiling below the tub, walls below the tub, etc. Depending on how quickly remediation occurs, many of these can be saved.
If you let the issue sit for several days the excess water will cause a strong odor and microbial growth will occur behind the drywall. Additionally, since the water has so much time to soak into the subfloor, the floor moisture content becomes very high. In these scenarios, the need to remove the subfloor to ensure proper drying is essential. In many cases, these can be saved by doing so which can save you time, money, and aggravation.
When you are dealing with water damage it is important to rule out the presence of mold or structural damage that the standing water may have caused. Our water damage restoration services include the inspection of the affected spaces with our state of the art water sensing equipment, such as probes/sensors, infrared thermal imaging cameras, and video borescope camera inspections. Our restoration experts will also determine the extent of damage to the affected area.
