Oahu Vacation Rentals are at Risk of Potential Water or Mold Damage
8/16/2019 (Permalink)
Is your Kahuku Vacation Rental at risk?
With the new vacation rental laws being enforced August 1st, 2019 many illegal rentals are being shut down.
All vacation rentals have a constant flow of short term residents coming in and out. These homes are at risk as there are no long term residents to notice the possible mold growth or water damage of seemingly minimal pipe leaks.
As these new laws are enforced many vacation rentals will be needing a change in their targeted population, including possible long term rental changes.
In making these new changes SERVPRO recommends homeowners walk through their homes and check for any fungi growth in common places such as:
- Cabinets
- Closets
- Behind/Below Furniture
- Small enclosed areas
- Dark/Damp Rooms
Pipe leaks or seemingly minimal water damage can cause extensive issues and damage to your Kahuku rental. SERVPRO recommends homeowners walk through any vacation/long term rentals to check for possible water damage. Common places to check may include:
- Walls
- Bathrooms
- Under sinks
- Behind large appliances
- Hoses
- All faucets
If your rental has experienced any fungi/water damage call our SERVPRO team (808)-235-5015 today for an inspection.
