Understanding Structural Water Damage

Water damage can weaken structural components like beams, walls, and flooring, requiring professional repair to ensure continued safety and stability. Charleston's older homes and commercial buildings often feature materials that are particularly susceptible to water damage.

Structural damage from water can affect load-bearing walls, floor joists, ceiling rafters, and foundation elements. Prompt assessment and repair are crucial to prevent progressive damage that could compromise the entire structure.

Comprehensive Damage Assessment

Our Charleston restoration team begins with a thorough structural assessment to identify all damaged components and determine the scope of repairs needed. This assessment includes evaluation of both visible and hidden damage using advanced detection equipment.

We examine the structural integrity of affected areas and provide detailed documentation of damage for insurance purposes. Our assessment helps prioritize repairs based on safety considerations and restoration efficiency.
