Water Damage from Broken Pipes Can Cause Mold
When a pipe bursts, the damage it causes can usually be seen immediately. The water can damage everything it touches. While the mess can typically be cleaned, once certain household materials (such as drywall) become wet, they can start to grow mold.
Mold can cause serious health concerns in your home or business. Mold cannot be completely removed because it is naturally occurring. Even attempting to clean the mold can put you at risk if you aren’t using the safest methods.
You need a professional to handle water damage and mold damage, especially when it comes to pipes. Depending on where the water is coming from, it can be contaminated. There are different levels of water contamination, but all should be left to professionals.
