Common Sources of Water Damage We Handle
At KIWI Services, we deeply understand the varied causes of water damage, backed by our readiness and state-of-the-art equipment. With years of experience, our skilled professionals are well-prepared to tackle these challenges with precision, ensuring your property is restored quickly and effectively. Here are the top five most common causes of water damage that we are equipped to handle:
- Extreme Weather Events: Hurricanes, torrential rains, and tropical storms can rapidly overwhelm both natural and man-made drainage systems. KIWI Services was actively involved in the flood restoration efforts following significant hurricanes such as Hurricane Harvey in 2017 and Hurricane Ike in 2008, which profoundly impacted Houston. Utilizing our advanced techniques and equipment, we responded promptly to these severe weather events, managing the extensive flood damage they caused. Our swift and effective actions helped mitigate their impact and protect the properties of hundreds of residents and businesses.
- Rapid Snowmelt: Particularly in colder climates, a sudden increase in temperatures can lead to rapid snowmelt, overwhelming rivers and lakes. Our team is skilled in handling the sudden influx of water, protecting properties from potential damage.
- River Overflow: Heavy rains or upstream snowmelt can cause rivers to exceed their banks, leading to flooding of adjacent land and properties. We employ effective strategies to divert floodwaters and reduce damage to the affected areas.
- Urban Drainage Basins: Urban areas, with their impermeable surfaces, are particularly vulnerable to flooding. Poorly designed or inadequate drainage can exacerbate the problem. We specialize in urban flood management, implementing solutions that reduce the risk of flooding in these densely populated areas.
- Blocked Waterways: Natural and man-made debris can obstruct water flow, leading to overflow and flooding. Our services include clearing these blockages to restore proper water flow and prevent water from inundating nearby properties.
