A Lakeland Water Damage Expert

Steve takes ownership of every project that EPS Lakeland receives. He and his team do not sub out work so they can ensure their work is up to their high standards. Steve takes pride in doing the right by the community he loves. Steve has put down roots in the Lakeland area.

Lakeland Weather Threatens Homes

The weather in the area test residents’ water defenses constantly. With lakes everywhere, high humidity most of the year, and frequent storms, Lakeland homeowners need a company they can trust to take care of them when water gets into the home. If a house gets flooded suddenly, homeowners need the reassurance of having the premier water damage expert in the region in their corner.

Lakeland residents also have to deal with the slow erosion of their moisture defenses. Storms and high winds gradually allow water in. Mold needs three things to grow: water, humidity, and food (wood, drywall). If moisture infiltration has led to mold growing unseen for months, you should call EPS Lakeland today.

Water Line Breaks are Disasters

Few homeowners realize how vulnerable they are to water supply line breaks until it happens to them. If the line that supplies a toilet, washing machine, or dishwasher breaks, it could ruin an entire floor of your home. The longer it sits, the worse the problem gets. Mold growth can begin within 24-48 hours of a house flooding.

Lakeland homeowners often don’t know that something above them also places them at risk of a water catastrophe. A lot of area homes have air conditioning units in the attic. A/C drain lines are susceptible to plugs from algae and other debris, and when that happens, water can leak into the ceiling of the home. Mold and water eat away at the ceiling and can even cause it to collapse.

If you have a water emergency or have discovered a lingering moisture issue, don’t hesitate to call the EPS Lakeland office today!
