Professional Water Heater Flood Restoration Services

Water heaters can hold as much as 50 gallons which will cause you major headaches! Even a small water heater leak can cause big problems to floors, subfloors and walls. Water can destroy your property in a short time. It takes less than 24 hours clean water to start creating mold spores. Unsightly and malodorous, mold also creates allergic reactions and respiratory problems in some individuals.

Prevent Further Water Heater Flood Damage

  1. To get started, turn off power to the area. Electricity and water - even a small amount of water from a leaking hot water tank - are a dangerous combination. Turning off power will prevent electrical shock while you clean up the water heater leak.
  2. Then, turn off the water supply. If you cannot easily reach the water heater shut-off valve, then turn off the main water supply to prevent further water damage. Depending on the nature of the hot water tank leak, water within the tank may continue to flood.
  3. Immediately soak up standing water. You can use towels or a mop to soak up standing water. Water extraction equipment and air movers (like fans) may be necessary to ensure all the moisture from the leaking hot water tank is removed. Act quickly! Time is of the essence to prevent additional water damage or mold damage.

When you have your water heater leak under control, you need to either repair or replace the hot water tank so it does not continue to flood your property. A water heater leak does not go way, it will only get worse. Temperature & pressure relief valves, water inlets, drain valves and the internal tank are common places where a hot water tank leak will originate. Hot water tanks leaks from the temperature & pressure relief valve (T&P valve) may be caused by excessive pressure inside the tank or overheating. This pressure on the T&P valve will keep it open almost continuously, leading to your water heater leaking. Before replacing the T&P valve you'll need to drain your hot water tank.

Water can destroy your property in a short time. The sooner the water heater flood damage is dried, cleaned and restored, the lower your risk for hazardous mold growth. Depending on the amount of water from your water heater flood, you may need professional equipment. Abbotts can be on-site within 60 minutes.
