Call SERVPRO for Water Removal Assistance and Repairs in Salem

Older copper plumbing, joints, and valves can develop slow leaks that may go unnoticed by homeowners in Salem. The plumbing may be located in the ceiling or exterior walls, and the tell-tale drip of water is not seen or heard until the ceiling caves down onto unsuspecting residents. Homeowners must deal with wet insulation and drywall, along with water soaking the room's contents.

SERVPRO provides water removal, drying, and restoration services to residents of Salem and the surrounding area. A slow leak can cause water to pool at the lowest point in the ceiling. It may not penetrate the ceiling material due to an intact vapor barrier or drywall that acts as a dam until the weight of the water is beyond what the material can support.

After an event like the one described, cleaning up should be accomplished quickly to prevent further secondary damage and mold colonies from forming. Mold colonies can become established in as little as 24 to 48 hours under the right conditions. Mold can cause health effects for many individuals.

SERVPRO can assist with building services repairs and restoration in addition to the removal of water from floors, walls, and your contents. We can organize a full suite of restoration services:

• Removal of all water and debris
