The majority of property damage cases are the result of water or flooding. This is because water can enter a home or building in many different ways and it only takes a small amount of water to cause damage. Weather conditions like rain and flooding as well as other issues inside the home such as plumbing and appliance issues, leaks, overflows, and sewage backups can cause water damage. The reason you need to react to water damage so quickly is because water gets absorbed in porous building materials and furnishings. This can result in serious damage and mold growth and this damage will continue to spread.
At ServiceMaster of Sarpy County, we provide water damage restoration services in Omaha, NE to help homes and businesses affected by flooding and excess water. Our technicians can remove standing water and excess moisture with advanced water extraction and drying equipment, and we will also restore the damaged areas.

Problems with Water Damage
Water, whether in the form of condensation, a leak, or standing flood water, can cause serious damage within your home or building. Common furnishings and building materials like wood and drywall are porous and absorb water which contributes to the damage of these materials and the spreading of the water. If these materials absorb enough water, they can lose their structural integrity. Mold is another potential issue as moisture allows mold growth to form. The presence of mold will increase the damage and threaten the health of those exposed.
If your home or building is affected by water damage, you need to call our professionals at ServiceMaster of Sarpy County right away. As you await our arrival, you can take these actions to limit the damage:
- Remove area rugs and non-permanent flooring.
- Open windows and doors to help with the drying if the weather permits.
- Prop up pillows and cushions on your furniture to help with drying and put aluminum foil under all furniture legs.
- Keep drapery off the floor by putting it through a coat hanger and putting the hanger on the rod.
