Experiencing water damage to your home is no fun. Often, you’ll even have to leave your home during the duration of the extraction of water process. The following are a few things to keep in mind when deciding on whether to stay at home or find another place to stay for a few days during the extraction of water:

First of all, there’s always a potential health hazard involved if the water damage was extensive. If there has been stagnant water in your home for a long period of time, there’s a good chance that bacterium and fungal agents have developed. You won’t want to risk the health of your family by staying in an environment such as this.
Even if health issues aren’t a concern, you may want to find another place to stay. This is because the extraction of water is done using powerful vacuums and industrial grade dehumidifiers, which make incredibly loud and continuous noise until the water extraction is complete. This is something you may not be able to tolerate.
Consider finding a different place to stay during your home’s water extraction process. Contact us at Parker Young today if you have experienced water damage.
