What is Water Damage?

Water damage occurs when the building structure, furnishings or appliances are damaged after coming into contact with water—including flooring, floor boards, ceilings, carpets and rugs, drywall, paint, furniture, wood products, tile and more.

What Causes Commercial or Residential Water Damage?

Flooded Basements from Natural Disasters. Lanesville In and New Albany IN gets an average of 40 inches of rainfall annually. Indiana also experiences an average of 15 inches of snow during the winter months annually with temperatures ranging between 25 and 35 degrees fahrenheit. These fluctuating temperatures can quickly translate into large amounts of runoff from melting snow. Improper drainage, shifting foundations, roof storm damage from high winds and broken tree branches (as seen during the Louisville Kentucky summer 2024 thunderstorms), flooding caused by overflowing/clogged trenches, sewers and drains during heavy rainfall can ALL lead to quickly accumulating water that can lead to acute basement flooding, particularly in low-lying areas.

Leaking Wall Pipes (caused by earthquakes, fires, normal wear and tear). Slow leaking pipes can catch homeowners and business owners off guard and scratching their head when mold suddenly starts to appear around the property (ex. Ceiling, walls, floor boards, around chimneys ect.) until the weakened piping finally gives in to pressure and becomes a water removal emergency. Both chronic or acute water leaks form pipes can cause extensive damage to walls, flooring, and personal affects (clothing, accessories, furniture, ect.) A fire disaster can lead to water flooding in a basement due to the efforts of firefighters to extinguish the flames. The large amounts of water used can seep into the ground and find its way into the basement through cracks or openings. Additionally, the heat from the fire can cause pipes to burst, further contributing to the flooding. This unexpected consequence highlights the importance of being prepared for various scenarios during a fire emergency.

Extensive Roof Leaks. Storm damage from thunderstorms, tornados, windstorms, or normal roof/gutter wear and tear can lead to water entering through the roof, facia, roof vents, lights, cracked bricks and more. Unattended roof, gutter or siding damage can cause water to penetrate through to the interior ceilings and walls of the home or business. The King’s Mitigator Inc is local Indiana roofing contractor that offers a variety of commercial and residential roofing services.

Appliance and Toilet Malfunctions. Dishwashers and overflowing toilets are two of the most common causes for water damage caused by household appliances. Washing machines and water heaters can all cause water damage if they break, require maintenance, or need to be replaced.

Water Remediation vs. Water Damage Restoration

When water damage occurs, immediate water extraction is crucial in preventing further damage to your home or commercial building. Hiring a water mitigation specialist like The King’s Mitigator in Lanesville Indiana can save you on costly repairs in the long run. Flooding and mold growth are common in Indiana and Kentucky due to the high humidity levels and frequent thunderstorms. Having a plan for emergency water removal is as important as having a fire safety plan and tornado safety procedure.

What is the Water Remediation Process?

Water remediation focuses on immediate removal of contaminated/polluted water from your home or office while also identifying and preventing continuing water damage. If sewage, chemical spills or floodwaters are present, they may contain dangerous chemicals or substances. Call the water mitigation professionals at The King’s Mitigator for questions about what plan of action is best in your unique situation.

The water remediation process involves these steps:

1. Contaminant and Emergency Water Removal. Immediate removal of the water/chemicals with commercial-grade equipment is key in preventing further damage to your commercial or residential space. The King’s Mitigator will be in contact with you and your insurance company during this process to make sure you are getting the best possible service at an affordable price.

2. Drying and Dehumidification. After the majority of the water and contaminates have been removed dehumidifiers, industrials fans, ect. may be positioned to further decrease the levels of moisture in the home or basement. Decreasing moisture levels quickly will decrease the rate of mold growth. Mold can be damaging to both human health and the structural integrity of your home or business, therefore must be addressed promptly.

3. Water and Mold MITIGATION. Mitigation means finding the source of the water or mold problem and eliminating it. Examples of residential and commercial mitigation may include the following:

  • sealing leaks
  • installing or improving water drainage systems (For example: ditch or trench installation, extending downspouts, drain tile installation, adding dry creek beds, sump pump installation, rain barrel installation, lawn aeration, underground pipe flushing, catch basin inspection or installation, ect.)
  • gutter installation, repair, replacement, or cleaning
  • roof repair or replacement
  • temporary tarp installation over compromised areas of the home, roof, walls or siding
  • siding installation or repair
  • replacing broken pipes – interior and exterior. Pipes develop leaks for a variety of reasons including: freezing temperatures which cause water to expand and increase pressure on certain areas of piping, constantly high pressure over time that can weaken connection points, poor installation or pipes that are incorrectly fitted together upon installation can become compromised over time, corrosion, roots that grow into or under pipes, using highly concentrated or harsh chemicals on old piping, and clogs that can increase pressure in certain areas of piping if left unresolved.
  • repairing or replacing broken windows
  • replacing or repairing damaged appliances or appliance parts (For example: old/malfunctioning or leaky water heater, malfunctioning or clogged washing machine, leaky or broken dishwasher, ect.)
  • and more

What is the Water Damage Restoration Process?

While water remediation and mitigation involve identifying and resolving the immediate source of flooding and water accumulation, water damage restoration involves restoring a property to its pre-damaged condition after the water has been removed. The water damage restoration process involves the following:

1. Mold Inspection and Removal. If you suspect mold growth may be a problem after a water of fire emergency, call The King’s Mitigator inc. for a free mold inspection. If mold has begun to grow, it must be addressed immediately. Mold removal is a key part in the water damage restoration plan of action, especially in areas prone to basement mold (Lanesville In, Lousiville KY, New Albany IN, Clarksville IN).

2. Residential and Commercial Reconstruction. Once the compromised area has been dried and mold has been removed reconstruction may be necessary to restore the damaged space or area to its original state. The King’s Mitigator are local general contractors and home remodelers and are ready for your next fire or water restoration project. The reconstruction phase of water damage restoration process may include the following:

  • replacing or repairing damaged drywall

  • restoring or replacing damaged carpet or rugs (shag, wool, polyester, cotton, oriental, ect.)
  • exterior and/or interior painting

Document the Damage. Take photos and notes of the water or fire damage for insurance purposes. This documentation can be crucial when filing a claim. Water damage insurance claims involving natural disasters such as hurricanes, heavy snow storms, wind storms ect. are more likely to be granted.

Begin Water Removal. When safe, homeowners or business owners can begin removing water while waiting for professional water removal profesisonals to arrive by using buckets, a wet/dry vacuum (for lesser amounts of water), or sump dumps (for larger amounts of water).

Dry the Area. Use commercial fans, ceiling fans (when appropriate) and dehumidifiers to dry out the space and prevent mold growth. Opening windows or doors may also help as long as the Indiana climate permits (no forecasted rain or high humidity).

Assess for Mold. After drying, check for signs of mold. If you find any, it’s essential to address it immediately through professional mold removal services. Small amounts of vinegar can help kill small amounts of mold, but professionals can help inspect and detect the prescence of hidden mold that may be trapped behind the walls or bricks of the home.
