Lake Elsinore Flood Damage Restoration

Whether major or minor, flood damage restoration requires professional attention to avoid problems that may very well be hidden from view.  In addition to pump-out, there may be some specific sanitation or toxin issues to be addressed. The next step is water damage removal.

Water penetrates and hides, and can lead to mold and odors, discoloration, warping and splitting, and even structural damage.  At Cutting Edge, we have the special equipment, training, skills, and experience to do things right.

Interesting Facts:  In the past, Lake Elsinore’s level has varied dramatically, from “little more than a swamp” in the early 1800s to the Great Flood of 1862.  That was immediately followed by several years of drought, then heavy rains and an overflow in 1872.  But low rains that same year lead to very low water levels.

Then in the 1883-1884 winter, Lake Elsinore again overflowed down Temescal Canyon.  In the 1950’s the lake nearly completely dried up, only to flood homes and businesses in 1980.  With that, a major project was undertaken that has since kept the lake at a nearly constant level, with overflow through Alberhill Creek.

Lake Elsinore Water Damage Removal

Whether from natural flooding or a flood caused by a busted pipe or water heater, avoiding further damage calls for a certified water damage removal specialist.  Even a minor plumbing problem, requiring special leak detection methods just to find it, can lead to major problems if neglected.

In addition to some of the best technicians around, our resources include special truck-mounted water extraction equipment and the latest in dehumidification drying.  Compared to older methods, we can complete building dry-out several times faster for the absolute minimum of ongoing damage.

24/7 Leak Detection

Plumbing leaks are the most common cause of water damage.  Leaking fixtures are easy to spot, but the problem may be within a wall or under the concrete floor slab.  You may notice mold or odors, or perhaps a damp or warm area.  Or your only clue may be an unexplained jump in your water bill.

We combine our years in the business with the latest in electronic leak detection equipment and thermal imaging to pinpoint the location of the problem right from the start.  Anything less will end up costing you a lot more.  There’s simply no excuse for unnecessary demolition just to locate the leak!

Fire Damage Repair for Lake Elsinore

There are few things more upsetting and overwhelming than a home fire.  Beyond the obvious damage ash, smoke, and soot can travel throughout your home in directions and into places you’d never expect.  And it’s not just a matter of appearance.

Different types of fires cause different types of smoke and soot, thus requiring different types of treatment.  In addition to health issues from toxins, deposits are often corrosive and will gradually damage your possessions if they’re not properly cleaned.  Odors will immediately start to penetrate into interior finishes, carpet, and furniture.  If not properly stopped soon enough, those odors are no longer treatable and can linger for years.

Beyond interior, structural, and exterior repairs, fire damage repair demands a broad range of professional expertise.  Cutting Edge has all the equipment, training, skills, and experience needed to:  assess the damage, prevent further damage, sort out everything that’s salvageable, provide special cleaning and advanced deodorizing, make repairs, and haul everything away.
