Common Causes of Water Damage
Heavy rains are one cause of water damage in Cleveland, but it's far from the only one. Other common causes of water damage include:
- Sump Pump Failures: Sump pumps are devices installed in the lowest part of a property to evacuate floodwater. If the pump stops working, floodwater will accumulate in the basement and spread to other parts of the building.
- Burst Water Pipes: Freezing temperatures, clogs, age, and other factors can burst a pipe. Switching off the water mains as soon as a burst occurs will stop the water leakage into your building.
- Leaky Appliances: A leaking faucet, dishwasher, washing machine, or water heater tank can cause indoor flooding.
Ignoring any of the above issues can lead to significant property damage that threatens the safety of your building and everyone within it. Get help quickly by reaching out to our experts at AllPhase Restoration for emergency water extraction and repair in Cleveland.

WHAT TO DO WHEN WATER DAMAGE STRIKES
When water damage occurs at your home, it’s crucial to prevent further damage from occurring. Take a look at some tasks you should do to prevent more wreckage and some things you should avoid.
DO'S
- Call AllPhase Restoration for immediate help and to mitigate any further water or mold damages.
- Remove as much excess water as possible by mopping and blotting with clean towels.
- Turn on air conditioning for maximum drying in summer. In winter – open windows to aid in drying out your home.
- Use dehumidifiers, if available. Use fans to circulate air and assist in drying if the damage just happened.
- Remove rugs from wet wall-to-wall carpeting.
- Lift draperies off carpet, loop through a plastic (not wire) coat hanger, and place the hanger on the drapery rod.
- Open drawers and cabinet doors for complete drying.
- Remove all contents from the affected area(s) to speed up drying time.
- Dry wet contents in a timely fashion.
DON'TS
- Don’t leave books, magazines, or other colored items on wet carpets or floors.
- Don’t use your household vacuum to remove water.
- Don’t use TVs or other appliances while standing on wet carpet or floors, especially not on wet concrete floors.
- Don’t turn on ceiling fixtures if the ceiling is wet, and keep out of rooms where water-damaged ceilings are sagging from retained water.
- Don’t go into rooms with standing water if the electricity is still on.
- Don’t go into flooded basements with standing water or raw sewage.
- Don’t lift tacked-down carpet without professional help. Lifting the carpets incorrectly could promote shrinkage or backing deterioration.
