Caution with Pipes

1/5/2021 (Permalink)

Pipe bursting with water Water damage, if left too long, becomes a costly repair.

When a pipe in your home or business bursts, it can cause extreme water damage. Many plumbing companies suggest these are the top six reasons pipes burst:

  1. Freezing
  2. Tree root encroachment
  3. Corrosion
  4. Soil Shifting
  5. High water pressure
  6. Clogs

Most of these scenarios can be prevented through routine inspection and maintenance of your pipes. Water pipes, if not properly maintained and insulated, can become a costly repair later and in some cases can even destroy your home. Moisture attracts mold growth, and water leaks over time can compromise the structural integrity of your home.

When residents discover water damage, they trust SERVPRO of Oak Park- River Forest to respond to these emergencies 24 hours a day. Our highly trained water restoration technicians will restore your water damage, “Like it never even happened.” Call us at (708) 483-8636.
