Excessive rainfall can often lead to flooding, while a burst water main in the street or a ruptured pipe in your plumbing is also capable of causing significant destruction.
Carpeted floors exposed to excessive moisture and humidity can result in the growth of mold, mildew, and other bacteria that can lead to health issues among people and pets living in the home. Older floors like wooden floorboards can also potentially become weaker and unsafe. Then there are the risks that come from water meeting electricity.

Don’t leave water damage restoration too late
If your home or workplace does succumb to water damage, it’s imperative that you start taking action as soon as possible to reduce the likelihood of lasting damage to the premises and anything contained within your property (e.g. furniture and whitegoods). Leaving water damage restoration too long can also lead to ongoing health problems which are outlined below.
The sooner that the Squeaky Clean Team is able to get our air movers. And humidifiers operational within your premises. The less opportunity that mould and bacteria is given to develop, protecting the health of you and your family or employees. While ensuring your carpet won’t begin to smell.
For properties that have wooden floorboards that are beginning to age. The sooner that flooring undergoes water damage restoration, the less likely. It that it will become susceptible to rotting or warping. This could mean the difference between paying hundreds of dollars or thousands of dollars to partially or completely resurface the floor. Sorting out water damage restoration sooner rather than later not only has its advantages health-wise but financially as well.
Just as water damage in the home or workplace can result in health problems, so too can the financial cost be damaging. Not only is there the time cost of replacing damaged items or (if in retail) replenishing stock, but some insurance policies do not cover flood damage, so the cost might need to come out of your own pocket if your insurance policy has that clause included.
Mould needs just three elements in order to develop and thrive. These elements are moisture, a humid environment, and a lack of adequate ventilation in the humid environment. All three factors combined form the ideal breeding ground for mold to grow. Once the mould has developed, it releases microscopic spores into the atmosphere. pets. can then be unintentionally inhaled by people or pets.
While mold spores are typically found in household dust particles. When they become present in abnormally high quantities. Such as when they’ve been able to grow in a water-damaged room that’s become the ideal breeding ground for mould. Then they can become dangerous to the health of people and animals. Such health issues can range from relatively minor to fatal and can include:
- Nasal congestion and a runny nose
- Respiratory issues
- Throat irritation
- Sneezing fits
Other potential conditions include serious fungal infections, mold-induced hypersensitivity, and Mycotoxin toxicity.
The water damage restoration process
Step 1: Preliminary inspection
Before we bring in the equipment, an accredited water damage specialist from the Squeaky Clean Team will conduct an initial assessment of the property in order to ascertain what will be required to counteract the negative effects of water damage.
Step 2: Water extraction
First and foremost, the key priority is to try and remove any excess water from the premises so we can restrict the extent of damage to as small an area as possible. Anything on the floor that is wet. Whether it’s clothing, throw pillows, toys, or rugs, must be removed from the room. Once the water has been extracted from the room, our experts will dry all wet surfaces. As walls and ceilings in order to facilitate faster carpet drying. Any drywall or wet insulation that our specialist deems to be non-salvageable is also removed to prevent any subsequent problems. To expedite the drying process. We open up all cabinet doors and remove all toe kicks to create more pathways for air to travel through.
Step 3: Stabilising and drying
Once all excess water has been moved and all damaged items and surfaces either removed or treated, we bring in the machinery to start the drying process. The Squeaky Clean Team uses industry-standard dryers and dehumidifiers. They extricate much of the moisture from the air and prevent the growth of mould. For wooden floors, we’ll use a special drying system that’s designed to safely draw moisture from the floorboards. Our specialists also use heaters in order to generate dry air and enhance air circulation and evaporation. Typically, the drying process takes between 2 and 4 days depending on the extent of the damage. The Squeaky Clean Team will monitor the progress to ensure we obtain the best results.
Step 4: Re-evaluation of the damage
Once we have completed the structural drying process, your accredited Squeaky Clean technician will conduct another examination to rule out any undetected pockets of moisture that could cause problems in the future.
Step 5: Reconstruction
Once we’ve significantly reduced the severity of water damage and the structure has more or less been deemed dry, the final step of the water damage restoration process requires the reconstruction of any areas that have succumbed to serious damage. Once that is complete, your home or workplace should be ready for you to return safely.
