SERVPRO Can Help Restore Furniture in Seal Beach
One of the most frustrating parts of water damage is the cost of replacing ruined furniture. Thankfully, it is often possible to save furniture with a little help from professionals.
Our customers who need help with water damage restoration in Seal Beach often ask if it is possible to restore water-damaged furniture. They are also concerned about whether they should do anything while waiting for our team to arrive.
While you are waiting, if it is safe to do so, you can:
- Remove all items from wooden tables, such as books or lamps.
- Gently blot the water from the wooden furniture’s surface using mops or rags.
- Place squares of aluminum foil, or wooden blocks if you have them, between furniture legs and the carpet.
The key to successfully drying wooden furniture is monitoring humidity and moisture levels to ensure we do not dry it too quickly or slowly. The pace of drying is essential if we want to avoid warping or cracking the furniture.
