Is dehumidification really necessary?

Answer: Yes. Most people associate water damage with severe floods and pipe leaks, but excess moisture in the air can be just as destructive as pooled water. Humid air can damage your walls, floors, furniture, and other structural components in your home. Dehumidification effectively reduces air moisture, thus mitigating damage to your home and preventing subsequent mold growth.

Is water damage covered by my insurance?

Answer: The answer to this question depends on the types of insurance policies you have and their language. If you carry flood insurance, your policy should cover at least a portion of your repairs assuming that the cause of the water damage is a covered peril. Of course, there are some extenuating circumstances that may cause your insurance carrier to deny your claim—for instance, if the water damage occurred due to your own negligence.

This Is How to Remove Old Stains From Carpet.

For any stain, whether it’s new or old, there are some dos and don’ts that always apply.

You should never scrub a carpet stain. This can actually make the stain travel deeper into the carpet fibers and stain the pad. Instead, use a cloth to blot the stain.

Next, always use a white cloth or towel to clean carpet. Depending on the treatment you’re using, it could make the dye from the towel transfer to the carpet.

Always work from the outside in. Whether you’re treating the stain or just using water, working from the outside in can make the stain larger. That’s why it’s important to clean inwards when you’re dealing with a carpet stain.

You should also test the cleaning treatment on an out-of-sight part of the carpet before you start cleaning. If it bleaches the carpet or reacts poorly, no one will see the spot. This gives you a chance to try a different product.
