Water Damage Can Drain Your Joy. SERVPRO of Plainfield/Naperville South Brings it Back.

Freezing weather means ice may build up too much pressure in the pipes, causing them to burst. When water gushes through your home, it breaks apart walls, flooring, and/or ceilings. It shreds delicate materials, such as paper and drywall, right away. The water starts damaging other materials, even weakening the home’s structural integrity if it is not attended to. SERVPRO® of Plainfield/Naperville South is a leader in cleaning up after water damage and in restoration. Count on us to remove the water, clean and disinfect after any contaminants (including sewage or microbial growth, such as mold), and help you restore your home (house and belongings) to its pre-damage conditions.

If you are unfortunate, you will be at home when a pipe bursts. If you are extra unfortunate, you won’t be at home when a pipe bursts. If you are tragically unfortunate, you’ll be away for a long weekend. Consider these unlovely statistics, gathered from different sources via our SERVPRO of Plainfield/Naperville South data nerds: 

• A water line in the back of your refrigerator will release 700 – 1,400 gallons of water in 24 hours 
• A toilet supply line spills 3,000 – 4,000 gallons over 24 hours 
• Washing machines can leak out 12,000 gallons to spill into your home within 24 hours 

If the burst pipe isn’t from an appliance, the prospects are even grimmer: 

• ½-inch pipe: 50 gallons per minute (72,000 gallons in 24 hours) 
• ¾-inch pipe: 110 gallons per minute (we’re not going there) 
• 1-inch pipe: 210 gallons per minute 

• 2-inch pipe: 850 gallons per minute 
• Bigger: too depressing to consider

Burst pipes are clearly disasters. The explosion of water causes ample wreckage on its own, but the water itself is damaging. Any contaminants, such as microbial growth (including mold), sewage, or other waste (as from washing machines or the outdoors) may cause additional harm.
