If your house has suffered from flooding due to broken pipes, then simply drying techniques will not be sufficient to get rid of dampness and unpleasant odour. Your carpets, wood flooring, and walls are porous in nature which means they can absorb water so simply removing the water will not suffice. Surface cleaning will only get rid of the water, but significant quantities of bacteria and microorganisms will be left behind which can cause health problems and also leave an unpleasant odour in your house.
The whole house needs to be cleaned, deodorised and disinfected by experts to eliminate disease-causing bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms before the affected area are safe for use by humans again
Water damage can have consequences on your house structures and can damage flooring, walls, and ceilings. It is crucial that only a professional team handles this home cleaning and deodorising situation so it can assess and get rid of any potential long-term issues which may arise due to water damage. Trying to get rid of water on your own may get rid of the water, but you will not be able to assess any structural damages by yourself.
