Removing affected wet floors

Time

Time is a homeowner's primary enemy after a wood floor has gotten wet. Whether cleaning is a practical solution will depend on how long the floor was saturated with water. The longer the water is in contact with the floor, the more likely the water is to soak into the floors and do damage. The floors need to be dried and the cleaning needs to begin as soon as possible. Mold can begin to grow and can cause serious damage in a matter of days. Wood can generally support a large amount of moisture for a short period of time without deforming, but uneven drying can cause the wood to become misshapen.
