Water, Fire & Mold Damage Restoration in Springfield, LA

When water is spreading across a floor, smoke has filled the house or mold has shown up behind a wall, you need a crew in Springfield today, not a callback next week. Water Restoration connects property owners in Springfield and the surrounding Livingston Parish area with local restoration companies that handle water extraction, structural drying, fire and smoke cleanup, mold remediation and sewage cleanup, 24 hours a day.

Local properties include homes spread across the countryside, many on private wells and septic systems, along with barns, shops and seasonal cabins, and each responds differently to water, smoke and moisture. Rural properties bring their own issues: well pump and pressure tank failures, septic backups, and seasonal homes that sit unheated and unwatched.

Local risks: Springfield and Livingston Parish

Property owners in Springfield deal with the same regional risks found throughout Louisiana. Louisiana faces hurricanes and tropical storms, extreme rainfall rates that overwhelm drainage, river and backwater flooding and relentless humidity. Slab homes flood from the ground up, and mold growth after any water event is fast and aggressive. Problems tend to peak during hurricane season and the spring rainy season, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

Typical emergencies in the area:

• Clogged air-conditioning condensate lines and overflowing drain pans that soak ceilings and closets
• River flooding when nearby waterways crest after prolonged rain
• Pinhole leaks in copper lines inside walls
• Fire-suppression water after a kitchen or electrical fire
• Flash flooding that pushes water through doors, window wells and foundation walls in minutes
• Tidal and coastal flooding in low-lying neighborhoods, plus salt-air corrosion of plumbing
• Electrical shorts in humid attics and crawlspaces
• Lightning-caused attic and roof fires
• Storm damage that let rain into attics and walls
• Salt air and coastal humidity that keep building materials damp

First steps for Springfield property owners

The first hour determines how much can be saved. While a crew is on the way:

• Shut off the main water valve if the source is a plumbing failure, and turn off power to the affected area if water is near outlets or appliances
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• Do not run the HVAC system if ducts or the air handler got wet, and do not use household fans on sewage or flood water
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed

Building types, timing and seasonal risk

Regardless of the age of a building, water finds the same weak points: supply connections, roof penetrations, window flashing and anywhere two materials meet.

Hurricane season brings the largest losses, but year-round humidity and heavy summer rain keep crews busy every month. Cooking fires are the leading cause year-round, with electrical and heating fires rising in the cooler months. Humid summers mean mold can establish itself in days, and air-conditioned interiors create condensation on cold surfaces that keeps feeding it.
