What causes water damage around Helen
Storm season is longest from June through November, and humid weather means wet materials dry slowly without equipment. Typical triggers in Georgia include roof leaks after wind and hail, tropical storms and heavy summer thunderstorms and high humidity that lets mold start quickly on wet materials. Conditions here include warm, humid weather for much of the year and frequent heavy rain.
After severe weather, storm and hurricane flood damage cleanup covers what flood water does to a building and how cleanup is sequenced. Humid air slows drying, which makes structural drying and dehumidification an important part of any job.
