Water Heater Leak Damages Two Floors in Building
After inspecting, our team determined that the leak was from the second-floor water heater. The water heater failed causing water to seep through the kitchen cabinets and onto the hardwood floors of unit two, and into the ceiling of unit one.

Completed Restoration Services and Overcoming Restoration Challenges
We faced unique restoration challenges with this project, as we had to take additional precautions because a resident on the first floor had tested positive for COVID-19. Our technicians wore extra PPE and set up an air scrubber to filter the air while working, ensuring the entire restoration process was handled safely and effectively.
Using our advanced techniques, air movers and dehumidifiers, we had both units dry within three days. Minimal damage had occurred and the customer’s hardwood floors did not have to be replaced as he had feared would happen.
