Before anyone arrives

The first hour after a leak in Centennial Park

No need to get it perfect. These are the things that make the biggest difference, in order.

  1. Shut off the water

    Look for the main valve near the meter or where the line comes into the house, and turn it slowly, since older valves can stick. If it's one fixture, its own shutoff valve will do.

  2. Stay clear of the power

    If you can reach the breaker panel without stepping in water, switch off the wet rooms. If you can't, leave it alone, stay out of the water and tell us when you call.

  3. Take pictures first

    Before you clean up, photograph the water, where it came from and whatever it damaged. Your insurance company will ask, and you only get one chance at those shots.

  4. Rescue what you can

    Move rugs, papers, photos and electronics to a dry room, and prop furniture up off the wet floor. Everything else can wait.

  5. Let the air move

    If the water is clean and the power's safe, open interior doors and run the fans you have. Stay out if it's sewage or floodwater, and keep that air away from the rest of the house.

Mold can get started within 24 to 48 hours, so it's worth calling even if the worst seems over.

Typical build year

What tends to fail in Centennial Park houses like yours

Newer homes don't have old pipe problems, but they do have their own weak spots. Plastic supply lines and fittings are generally reliable, yet some brass fittings from the 2000s were known to corrode, and the flexible lines under sinks and toilets don't last forever.

The first big replacement in a newer home is usually the water heater, at 8 to 12 years. If yours is at that age or you can't find a date on it, that's the place to start. A leak detector on the floor next to it costs very little.

Why water behaves differently in Centennial Park

Weather

You can go months without thinking about rain, and then it all comes at once. Monsoon storms flood streets and yards in minutes and find every crack in an aging roof. Up in the higher country, a cold snap can freeze an exposed pipe just as easily as anywhere in the north.

Buildings

Homes here are built to keep heat out, and that can make water hard to spot. A stucco wall can look fine while the framing behind it stays wet. A failed condensate line from a rooftop unit can run for days. And water under tile doesn't show until the grout changes color.

Ground

Hard desert soil and layers of caliche shed rain almost completely. Water that lands on your lot runs to the lowest point it can find, and that's often a patio door, a garage or a block wall. Older grading can settle over time and send runoff toward the house.

Drying

A tile floor can look perfectly dry while the concrete underneath is soaked. Floor mat systems pull that water up through the grout, and injector systems get air inside the walls. It's slower than a fan, and it works.

When you call

What happens after you call us from Centennial Park

Don't worry about having the right words. Just tell us what you're seeing. We'll get your address and a rough idea of the damage, then put you through to a specialist in our network who works around Centennial Park. They handle homes and commercial property, and they'll give you a time.

When the specialist arrives, the first job is finding where the water went, because that's rarely where it's pooled. Thermal cameras and moisture meters show how far it has traveled behind walls. They'll also work out what kind of water it is. Category 1 is clean water from a supply line, Category 2 is dirty, like a washer overflow, and Category 3 is sewage or floodwater. Category 3 means sealing the area with plastic, called containment, and running negative air machines with HEPA filters to keep the dirty air away from the rest of your home.

Most of the job is drying, and it's slower than people expect. Extraction units, often truck-mounted, take out the bulk water. Air movers and low grain refrigerant (LGR) dehumidifiers then do the long, loud work of pulling moisture out of walls and floors. Desiccant units come in when it's too cold or the materials are too dense for LGR machines. Psychrometric readings, which are daily checks of temperature and humidity, tell the specialist if the setup needs changing.

Nobody should take the machines away just because a wall feels dry. The target is the dry standard, measured from sound materials in your own home, and the job follows the IICRC S500 standard until the readings match. Ask for a copy of the daily log. Your insurer will want it.

Can it be saved? A guide for Centennial Park homes

It depends mostly on how fast drying starts and how dirty the water was. With clean water, carpet can usually stay and the pad goes. Hardwood often comes back with drying mats and patience, and sanding can take care of what's left. Walls may only need a flood cut, which removes the bottom section of drywall, so the rest stays put.

Things change when the water's dirty. Anything soft that sewage or floodwater reached, such as carpet, pad and insulation, gets thrown out. Hard surfaces get cleaned and treated. Have a professional look at any gas appliance that got wet before you turn it back on, and don't walk on a floor that's gone spongy.

Your Centennial Park water damage questions answered

How fast can someone get to me in Centennial Park?

Often within hours. Our network covers Mohave County, and we'll look for whoever can reach you soonest. Storms are the exception, because every crew in the area gets busy, so please don't wait to see if it gets worse.

Can I clean up water damage myself?

If it's small, clean and caught quickly, go ahead. If it has been sitting, has gone under the floor or smells bad, that's the time to call. The trouble with doing it yourself is that everything can look dry on top and still be wet underneath.

How long does it take to dry out a house?

It depends on how much got wet and for how long. A fresh leak in one room could be dry in a couple of days, while a soaked floor and walls may need a week. You'll see daily readings, so you'll know how it's going.

Can wet hardwood floors and carpet be saved?

Often, yes, if drying starts quickly. Hardwood can come back with floor drying mats and slow, controlled drying, though it may cup for a while and need refinishing. Carpet soaked by clean water can usually be saved with a new pad. Carpet that sewage or floodwater touched has to go.

Will my insurance pay for water damage?

It usually depends on where the water came from. A homeowners policy usually covers a burst pipe. Outside flooding needs separate flood insurance, and sewer backup often needs an add-on. It's worth reading your policy, and it's worth having those photos.
