Plumber Vs Restoration Company?

Do You Need an Arizona Plumber or Restoration Company?

Plumbers and Restoration companies often work side by side when dealing with potential water damage to personal property. Both work to keep your home safe from water damage and even more important, healthy from mold risk. There are some common misunderstandings when knowing what plumbers do and what restoration companies do and when you need them.

Plumbers are always necessary to stop and fix the source of the water loss. If you have a broken water line or bad washing machine valve or your sink tends to overflow then a plumber is your best friend. He will come out and determine what exactly is wrong and fix it for you. If said broken water line happens to break while you are out of town or even at work for the day and floods out a room or two or heaven forbid an entire floor then you will need a plumber and a restoration company.

A restoration company such as Slate Restoration will extract all the excess water from the broken water line and remove drywall and other building materials from the property that were badly effected by the water. Equipment is then placed to dry out the rest of the property that is holding on to moisture. Dehumidifiers and air movers help speed up the rate of evaporation and will quickly dry out the water that was drowning your home.

1. In summary, If you come home to water flooding out your front door, you will call a restoration company to handle the water in your home and the damages it caused and a plumber to fix the cause of the water flooding out your home in the first place.
