SERVPRO helps Carmel residents with water damage
Water damage can sneak up on you before you know it. Sometimes it is from something dramatic like a flood or a damaged roof. Other times, a leaking appliance or broken pipe is the culprit.
If you suffer water damage in your Carmel home, you might assume your photographs will be beyond repair. We understand how upsetting this is. Pictures are treasured family heirlooms, especially if they are older photographs from the days before digital images. However, do not despair. It is possible to save water-damaged photos.
Whether or not a photograph can be salvaged depends on:
- The type of water and if there are any contaminants present in it.
- How badly damaged the paper is.
- Whether the photographs have got stuck together.
Damage gets worse the longer you leave it, which is why it is vital to call SERPVRO at once. Do not wait for the structural integrity to worsen or mold to set in. We have access to state-of-the-art freeze-drying technology, which can dry out damaged paper and photographs.
If you are worried about water-damaged pictures, call SERVPRO of Putnam County at (845) 228-1090.
