Water damage inside your vehicle isn’t just an inconvenience—it’s a serious issue that can lead to extensive mold growth, foul odors, and even health risks if not treated properly. At Flawless Detail in Dallas, TX, we specialize in professional mold removal and have developed a proven process to eliminate flood damage and mold at the source—not just cover it up.
Common Causes of Water Damage in Cars-(When you need mold removal)
Flooding inside vehicles can happen more often than most people realize. Some of the most common causes include:
-
Clogged sunroof or moonroof drain tubes – When these drains get blocked, rainwater can overflow into the cabin.
-
Windows or doors left cracked open during a storm – Even a small opening is enough for a downpour to flood your interior.
-
Faulty door or window seals – Aged or damaged weather stripping can let water in over time.
-
Flooded streets – Driving through deep water can soak your carpet from below.
Why Flood Damage Is So Dangerous
When water enters your vehicle, it doesn’t just sit on the carpet—it naturally flows to the lowest point, which is underneath the carpet padding. That trapped moisture cannot be simply vacuumed or “sucked out” from above. It creates the perfect environment for mold and mildew to grow, often within 24–48 hours if the conditions are right.
Mold in Cars: A Health Hazard
Once mold takes hold, it releases spores into the air that can cause:
-
Allergic reactions
-
Respiratory issues
-
Unpleasant and lingering odors
Mold inside a car is not something to ignore or mask with air fresheners.
