Pipe Burst in Fargo

When a pipe like the one in this picture bursts and shoots water all over your yard, causing water intrusion into your home, you sure hope someone is around to notice it. Water leaks, when left unmitigated, can become a costly repair as the standing water has the opportunity to seep inside foundations, weakening the structural integrity of the area.

Staying Healthy around Standing Water in Fargo

Standing water of any kind in Fargo can be a powerful source of disease. Floods can be worse due to the amount of water involved. Even small puddles can pose a risk. 

Different kinds of debris can be found in floodwaters such as dead animals, rotted plants, and sewage, to name a few. If you have water damage inside your home, watch for debris in the home as well to include rotted food and electrical problems.
