Water damage isn’t a crisis that you expect to happen to you. But when it does, PureDry makes it easy to act quickly and curb the damage. It’s vital to call our team of knowledgeable specialists to ensure that any water damage you have doesn’t spread or get worse. If you don’t act quickly, the costs of restoring the damages or even having to replace parts of your house and furniture can become expensive.
At PureDry, we know just how important it is to treat water damage as an emergency. We offer access to our highly-trained, live representatives 24 hours a day and seven days a week so that you’ll never be without help when you need it. When you call, we will send one of our trusted experts to your property within sixty minutes to ensure the damage doesn’t worsen. Our scheduling, and our entire process, is worry-free. We will handle every aspect of your water damage restoration.
Calling a professional to take care of water damage in your home is absolutely vital. If not taken care of properly, it can spread to other areas of your home, create even more damage fairly quickly, and even cause structural damage. These are the signs of water damage to keep an eye out for:
Mold growth
Sagging, bowled ceilings
Musty smells
Water rings
Peeling, flaking, or bubbling paint
Water stains
Spiderwebbed or hairline cracks
If there’s flooding, the water damage needs to be professionally cared for within the first 24 hours or it can ruin the floors, walls, and electrical systems. Removing flood water is much more challenging than cleaning up regular water on the floor and should be left to specialists who are specifically trained to be able to do it with the least amount of damage possible.
Floors are particularly susceptible when it comes to water damage. This is especially true for wood floors. Water damage on wooden floors is fairly easy to see, so you should be able to detect hardwood floor water damage:
Warping, including planks that may be cracked or bubbling
Crowning, which leaves the middle of the plank bent up and the edges down
Cupping, where plank edges peel upward, leaving the middle slightly sunk
Buckling, where the floor separates from the seams and lifts
Ceilings & Walls
Water damage can also potentially affect the ceilings and walls of your home with very distinct indications. Keep an eye out for:
Brown water rings
Bubbling, cracked, or flaking paint
Bowed ceiling
Streaky discoloration
Musty odors
Softened drywall
Furniture
Though a lot of concern is rightly directed toward water damage to the house’s foundation, it’s also important to recognize that water damage can also significantly affect any furniture or belongings inside the home. Look for these indications of water damage on your furniture:

My wife called into PureDry and was connected with Michaela (hopefully I spelled that correctly) - it was a great experience. We described our issue, and Michaela was able to navigate us through the process and get us set up with a Project Manager to visit our home. This is out of pocket for us, and we were told that we will receive a price on-site - we've had other contractors out which took days upon days to even get us a quote so this was a huge relief.
We haven't gotten into the project side of things yet, but I wanted to show credit where credit is due, awesome customer experience. Looking forward to the rest of the project with PureDry!

Heath and Jake helped us with water leak restoration in our home. They were very punctual during their visits and ensured our walk is completely dry before starting the restoration work. They also took care of all the insurance-related formalities, allowing us to focus on our daily lives.

PureDry did a great job mitigating our water leak and then did an excellent job restoring the damaged areas. We also contracted with them to have additional painting done since the rooms were empty and the house now looks great. They did their work on time, stayed within the original quote, communicated well, and it all went well.

Initially, I thought this whole water restoration bit was a scam… I had a leak in my kitchen drain pipe and had a plumber come out to fix it. Roto Rooter was the original company and had sent out a water restoration person from their company to assess the damage. He blew out or proportion, was super aggressive and made me uncomfortable so I didn’t really know what to do. I found Puredry through Google and looked at their reviews and so I gave them a call. From the initial phone call, I could tell they were way better than what I had experienced. Jake, Heath & Conner were great! I worked with them all at different stages. Conner came out and assessed the water damage, was realistic and helped me through the claim process. Once the team came out, Heath and Jake, they started restoration but felt the issue had dried up so there wasn’t a need to pull everything up etc and said they wouldn’t charge me. I really appreciated their help through this process as it’s been a stressful few weeks made better by their team…and I get my kitchen back way sooner than I thought! :)

How Long Does it Take for Water to Cause Structural Damage?
The importance of acting quickly when it comes to water damage cannot be stressed enough. What starts out as a minor leak in the pipes can ultimately turn into intense structural damage before you know it. It only takes water damage six to eight hours to start to soften the walls, seep into the floors, and discolor your furniture.
Before anything else, the first step when you spot water damage is to locate the source and turn it off immediately, if possible. The second, and most important step, is to call your local water damage restoration specialists to ensure that your water damage doesn’t spread and become worse, as well as restore the damage that has already been done.
Causes of Water Damage Shoreline WA
Natural Disasters
Natural disasters, like severe storms and hurricanes can cause flooding in the house, which can swiftly lead to severe water damage. They can also harm the house’s foundation and roof, which can devolve into leaking, and, unfortunately, water damage.
If you experience a natural disaster, it’s a good idea to investigate your house for indications of standing water or leaks. It’s vital to spot them quickly so that you can curb the water damage before it gets worse and becomes more expensive.
Leaking Appliances
It’s essential to check your appliances regularly for leaks, especially:
Air conditioners
Water heaters
Refrigerators
Washing machines
Dishwashers
Leaking Roof
There are a myriad of causes for a leaky roof, including:
Condensation in the attic
Roof vents
Age
Clogged gutters
Broken or missing shingles
If your roof is leaking, it’s extremely important to confront it in a speedy manner, or it can cause water damage to any belongings in your attic, as well as stain or damage the ceiling.
Damaged Pipes
A frequently seen cause of water damage is damaged or misfitted pipes. If your water bill rises without any obvious reason, this could be a sign that your pipes are leaking. Another indication is if there is water accumulating underneath your bathroom or kitchen sink. A leaking pipe can cause water damage on the walls, underneath the sink, and on the floor

Water damage can be a very serious issue to a home’s condition. Water damage can cause structural damage, such as compromised foundations or unsound walls and ceilings. Water damage can also affect the health and safety of its residents, as untreated water damage can lead to mold, causing airborne diseases and other respiratory hazards.
Depending on the factors of severity and location of water damage, the time it takes for an area of the home to fully dry out after water damage will vary between a day to several weeks. That being said, the average amount if time it takes to dry out mild water damage will be a few days. It is important to ensure the affected area is completely dry for best results.
Homeowners insurance only covers water damage if the cause of damage is sudden or accidental. This would include the event of a pipe burst, for instance. The damage caused by the pipe burst should be covered by the resident’s homeowners insurance.
The timeline of water damage is dependent on a number of factors. Whether it’s and immediate pipe burst and drainage failure, or long term corrosion and decay of internal and external structures, PureDry is able to tackle water damage at the source, no matter how bad the damage may seem.
