Wood Floor Could Not Be Saved

Not All Wood Floors can Be Saved

There was so much water after the dishwasher supply line broke that the kitchen and dining room area flooring was soaked. The homeowners waited too long (three days) to make a claim and ended up having to replace their floors. Here is what happens to a wood floor after water damage.

Day 1 - The excess water finds its way under the floor through the slats and edges.

Day 2 - Wood has soaked up the water and starts to buckle and cup on the edges.

Day 3 - Visible mold growth is seen and the flooring has to be removed and cannot be saved.
