Areas of the Home Commonly Affected by Water Damage

Leaks may occur in various areas of your Boise home, but commonly they affect your roof, attic and basement. Since appliances such as a dishwasher, washing machine, refrigerator and hot water heaters can commonly break and flood into surrounding areas – the laundry room and kitchen are also commonly affected. Additionally, any area of your Boise home that has plumbing presents an opportunity for leaks meaning bathrooms are equally susceptible.

What to Expect During Your Water Damage Restoration

You Should Address Damage to a Home Immediately

Sustained leaks can cause serious and systemic damage to a Boise home. As a result, it is important to address water-related concerns quickly. Some key problems associated with water damage include:

• Weakened or damaged house infrastructure
• Increased opportunities for mold and mildew growth
• Increased possibility of electrical issues or electrical shock
• Health concerns related to standing water exposure, including breathing problems
• Decreased functionality in the home
• Damage to appliances, furniture and other household items
• Sanitary issues related to raw sewage

Left untreated, smaller water problems can grow considerably and lead to bigger financial concerns in the long run. Sometimes, Boise homeowners delay addressing water damage because concerns are limited to an area of the house that is not often used. Unfortunately, water problems affecting one area of the house often spread to others. Mold growth can affect your duct work, causing foul odors to spread throughout a home. Water can leach into walls and other infrastructure, causing deterioration and staining. Leaks in upper areas of houses are particularly worrisome, as water tends to travel through walls and flooring, damaging insulation, sheetrock, paint and setting the stage for mold development.

One of the more concerning issues related to water damage is exposure to potentially hazardous health conditions. This can cause significant and lasting effects, especially for groups that are most susceptible to exposure like children and the elderly.

In Boise, water damage from leaks or storms can cause mold to grow in crawl spaces, near furnaces and air conditioning systems and contaminate the air supply of your home. Mold can cause respiratory ailments and exacerbate sickness.

Bacteria and other microorganisms affecting your health thrive in areas of standing water and contact with standing water can induce more serious illnesses.

More directly, flooding can jeopardize the safety of your home, presenting electrical hazards where in contact with wires as well as appliances and other electrical devices.

Immediate Steps to Take in Response to Water Damage to Your Home

There are steps that you should take to help ensure the safety of your family and your Boise home if you experience water damage from a leak, storm, sewage backup, or other disaster:

1. Shut off power and water in or near affected areas.
2. Contact emergency services if injury has occurred.
3. Research insurance policies related to water damage to determine coverage options. Since time can be of the essence it’s advisable to always understand your policy in advance if possible.
4. Contact Complete Restoration Services, a certified restoration specialist and professional repair company in Boise, for assistance in draining and cleaning water affected areas of your Boise home in a safe and expedient fashion.

Boise, Idaho is a beautiful city with lots to offer. It is the capital of Idaho, the largest city in Idaho and Boise is the county seat for Ada County. The city of Boise was developed on the Boise River which is a tributary of the Snake River and a drainage for the Sawtooth Range and Snake River Plain. The Boise River as well as the dams along it provide water storage and opportunities for recreation.

Boise's cold winter months can sometimes put strain on water systems. Ice, snow and wind are three key culprits of concern in Boise, as excessive snow and shifts in temperature can cause drainage issues as well as burst pipes. In 2017, an especially wet winter combined with mismanagement of water in the dams meant that areas along the Boise greenbelt and Boise River experienced massive flooding. This created specific challenges for many Boise homeowners and the city of Boise is still very much reeling from the estimated millions of dollars of damage.

Water damage preparedness for your Boise home can help to alleviate potential problems encountered in the household and offset property damage should this situation happen in Boise again.
