Water Heater Floods Home Overnight in Kailua-Kona?

Conventional tank water heaters typically last between 10 and 15 years. The most immediate and common consequence of a water heater failure is the release of water. This can occur when the tank of the water heater ruptures and develops a leak, or when a valve or connection fails. Depending on the size of the tank, this can release anywhere from 40 to 120 gallons or more of water into the surrounding area, potentially flooding utility rooms, or other spaces where the water heater is located.
We use powerful, industrial-grade water extraction equipment capable of removing thousands of gallons of water from an area quickly and efficiently. We also monitor and document the drying process to ensure the area is dried completely, reducing the opportunity for mold and mildew to form. If you discover your water heater flooding, shut off the water supply, and the electricity or gas to the unit and call for professional help right away.
