Hardwood Floor Buffing and Cleaning In Melbourne

Any timber floor water damage can leave lingering problems if left untreated. Thoroughly steam cleaning timber floors get rid of all excess water. That’s why it’s essential to get professional drying services. Common problems that can occur if timber flooring isn’t dried correctly include:

Warping or buckling floorboards occurs when moisture gets stuck in the flooring. If water seeps into the timber floors’ gaps, the boards will begin to bend and buckle. This creates an uneven and awkward surface that’s a hassle to fix.

Harmful Mold And Mildew

Bacteria thrive in excessive moisture. This means water damaged timber flooring is often at risk of mould and mildew if it’s not repaired efficiently. Have our professional staff dry and decontaminate your timber flooring today to prevent harmful mould and mildew from growing in your home or office.

Stubborn Stains

Wood can quickly soak up moisture. Excess water from unpredictable weather or machine leakages means your timber flooring’s topcoat is immediately under the threat of stains. Too much water in hardwood flooring would create noticeable discolouration. If treated promptly, you can quickly fix the timber floor’s water damage stains, but water stains get more problematic to remove the more extended the timber floor stays wet.

FAQs

How does Water damage timber Floors?

As timber floors absorb moisture, this causes the wood to expand and contract. This movement weakens the board’s structure, resulting in cracks and gaps appearing between the boards or on the board’s surface. Timber floors exposed to water damage may also suffer from warping and cupping as well as stains and discolouration.

How long does it take to dry out wet timber floors?

If you have a minor spill on your timber floors and wipe it up straight away, you may be able to prevent long-term damage. However, when a property suffers severe flooding or exposure over an extended period of time, drying out your timber floorboards can take longer. The amount of time required to dry out wet timber floors will depend on how much water damage has occurred.

Why do wooden floors swell?

Timber and wooden flooring absorb moisture when the humidity level is high in the air, and then the flooring lets that moisture go when the humidity in the air falls down. It is the leading cause of swollen wooden flooring.

Timber or wooden Floor water damage is a common problem for many homeowners. This can be caused by leaks from washing machines or dishwashers, a septic tank leak, flooding or even excessive moisture in the air. If it’s not treated quickly and correctly, these leaks can lead to mould growth, compromising your family’s health and making your home uninhabitable.

If you find yourself with water damage on your timber flooring, you need to act fast in order to save the floor. The longer you leave the water, the more damage it will do.
