Water Damage Restoration in Gila Bend, AZ

Water damage in Gila Bend: what is different here

Gila Bend is a small desert town along Interstate 8, with extreme summer heat and long distances to larger service areas. Expect that arrival can take longer than in the valley and call right away.

Freezing nights are uncommon but do occur, and exposed plumbing outdoors is the usual casualty.

What causes water damage in Central Arizona

• Monsoon runoff. Flat terrain and shallow washes mean storm water spreads out quickly and collects around low lying lots and older homes without good grading.
• Plumbing and water heater failures. Newer subdivisions are reaching the age where original water heaters and supply lines start to fail, and older farm homes often have mixed or aging plumbing.
• Well and septic systems. Some rural properties rely on private wells and septic systems. A failed pump or a backed up septic line creates its own kind of water emergency.
• Roof and window leaks. Intense sun wears down roofing, sealants and weatherstripping, so leaks tend to show up during the first heavy storm of the season.

Do this while you wait for help

1. Stop the source. Close the main water valve, a fixture shutoff or the appliance valve if you can reach it safely.
2. Think about electricity. If water is near outlets, a panel or wet ceilings with light fixtures, turn off power at the breaker only if the panel is dry and you can reach it without standing in water.
3. Protect people first. Keep children, older adults and pets away from wet areas, and stay out of anything that smells like sewage.
4. Document before you clean. Record a slow walkthrough video, then take close photos of the source, damaged materials and belongings.
5. Move what you can. Lift small furniture, electronics, documents and keepsakes onto dry surfaces, and pull rugs and cushions out of wet areas.
6. Call for help right away. Every hour of delay spreads moisture further into drywall, subfloors and insulation.
