O Fallon Water Damage Inspection

One critical lesson we’ve learned from our 25+ years in business in business is this: water damage can generate an incredible degree of damage quite quickly. That’s why it’s imperative to perform a water damage inspection in O Fallon if your property has recently fallen victim to flooding or plumbing issues. The quicker you determine the exact whereabouts and intensity of water damage, the earlier you can begin remediation. 

Here in the St Louis area, we conduct high-quality inspection services for residential and commercial properties throughout O Fallon and the surrounding area. We’re honored to be based locally in Greater St Louis – we’ve called this place home since we opened our doors in 1996.

During that time, we’ve helped many clients assess water damage, whether they’re in the process of buying or selling the property or simply would like to do maintenance and repairs. 

Our inspection crew will assess the following locations: 

• Attic
• Crawl space and basement
• Kitchens and bathrooms
• Plumbing and below sinks
• Boiler or hot water tank
• Drywall and ceilings
• Ductwork and furnace 

A building’s exterior is also crucial so inspectors will investigate the following:

• Roof and shingles
• Gutters, soffits, and eaves
• Garage
• Storage areas and sheds

How do our inspectors detect water damage? 

• Water stains on the ceiling: Water marks on the ceiling typically point to a damaged pipe or damaged roofing.
• Stained walls and cracking drywall: The drywall has to stay dry. But when exposed to water, it can start to warp and mold over time. Keep your eyes peeled for yellow or brown marks, as well as peeling paint or wallpaper.
• Mold: Mildew on walls can indicate that there’s a major underlying problem. You may have a leaky pipe that is saturating the drywall and insulation.
• Distorting: Warped floors can be indicative of high moisture levels underneath the floorboards or a problem with your home’s foundation.
• Rusty spots: Seeing rust stains can be a sign of water exposure over a longer time.
• Unusual smells: A squalid smell may signal bad ventilation or worse.
