In the event of unknown water damage, many homeowners aren’t able to prevent mold growth. A tiny leak in the roof or pipes can persist for months before you notice it. In a situation like this, the restoration process takes even longer. Call the Restoration Ninjas as soon as possible to inspect even small water damage spots to prevent larger, later problems.
If you would like us to check out a water damage spot, please call Restoration Ninjas today! No water spot is too small to warrant a quick inspection.
