Before anyone arrives

First steps for a Rogers water emergency

These are the steps that help most before anyone gets there. Do what you safely can.

  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.

Typical build year

What to check in a typical Rogers home

If your house dates from the late 1970s to the mid 1990s, take a look at the pipes. Polybutylene went into a lot of homes in those years. It's gray plastic, and it has a habit of failing with no warning. You can often spot it at the water heater or under a sink.

Then there's the water heater itself. Most tanks last 8 to 12 years, so a house this age is probably on its second or third, and yours may be getting close. If you see polybutylene, it's worth asking a plumber about it, even if nothing's leaking yet.

How we can help in Rogers

The southern plains

How local weather and building styles shape water damage in Rogers

Weather

The weather here swings between extremes: hail and heavy rain in spring, long hot summers, and winter cold snaps that arrive with little warning. Each brings its own kind of leak, from a wet ceiling after a storm to a burst line in the wall when the thaw comes.

Buildings

A lot of homes here are built on slabs, with brick veneer over wood framing. Water that gets behind the brick can wet the studs and insulation without showing inside. Older neighborhoods still have pier-and-beam houses, where moisture collects in the crawlspace. Attic water heaters and air conditioning units add another risk, because a clogged condensate line drains straight through your ceiling.

Ground

After a dry spell, clay ground pulls away from the foundation, and the next heavy rain runs right into the gap. All that swelling and shrinking strains the pipes in the ground as well. It's one big reason slab leaks are so common around here.

Drying

Water under a slab rarely shows on top. Acoustic equipment listens for the break in the line, thermal imaging maps the wet area, and drying then goes after the carpet, pad and bottom plates above it. It saves a lot of demolition.

When you call

What happens after you call us from Rogers

We'll ask where you are, what happened and whether the water's still running. That takes a couple of minutes. Then we'll connect you with a specialist from our network who works in Benton County, and you can ask them when they can be there before you hang up. Homes and commercial buildings are both fine.

The first hour is mostly detective work. Using thermal imaging and moisture meters, the specialist traces the water through walls and floors. Then they'll sort it into Category 1, 2 or 3, from clean supply line water to sewage or floodwater. If it's Category 3, they'll seal the area with plastic sheeting and set up negative air with HEPA filtration, so the contaminated air stays put.

Getting the water out is the quick part. A truck-mounted or portable extractor handles that. After that, air movers sweep across wet surfaces, and low grain refrigerant (LGR) dehumidifiers take that moisture out of the room. In cold or dense spaces, desiccant dehumidifiers work better. You'll hear the machines day and night for a while, and daily psychrometric readings of the air show that they're working.

A wall can feel dry and still hold plenty of water. That's why the specialist measures a dry standard from unaffected wood and drywall nearby and keeps the equipment running until the wet areas match. This is the method in the IICRC S500 standard, and those moisture logs back up your insurance claim.

What you can save and what has to go in Rogers

Most people expect to lose more than they do. Carpet that's only had clean water on it can usually be dried, though the pad underneath gets replaced. Drying mats can bring cupped hardwood back, given time. Walls often need only a flood cut, where the bottom of the drywall comes off and new board goes in.

If it was sewage or floodwater, porous things usually can't be saved. Carpet, pad and soaked insulation go in the dumpster, and studs and hard floors get cleaned and disinfected. Keep clear of any gas appliance that was underwater, and of any floor with a bit of bounce, until a professional has checked them.

Your Rogers water damage questions answered

How fast can someone get to me in Rogers?

It depends on the time and the weather, but same-day help is what we aim for, and it's often a matter of hours. The local specialist will give you a time on the phone, so you're not left guessing.

Can I clean up water damage myself?

A small spill of clean water on a hard floor? Sure. Towels and a fan will do it. But if the water's in the walls, the carpet pad or the subfloor, or it came from a sewer or a flood, you'll want it extracted and properly dried. What you can't see is what keeps causing damage.

How long does it take to dry out a house?

Usually three to five days for the drying alone. The specialist can tell you more after the first readings. Materials such as hardwood, plaster and concrete hold on to water longer, and repairs can only begin when they're dry.

Can wet hardwood floors and carpet be saved?

It depends on time and on the water. For hardwood, floor drying panels and patience can do a lot, though refinishing may still be needed. For carpet, clean water usually means new pad and the same carpet. Contaminated water means replacing both.

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.
