As an experienced restoration company we see similar water damage situations occur. One of our best pieces of advice to a vacationer is to turn their water main off until they return. If a leak or pipe rupture occurs they will not have to return to a soaked home.
Not the case here, as this homeowner was on vacation for a few weeks when a passing rain storm caused flooding in their backyard which forced its way in and covered the downstairs of her home. This is just a close-up of one area where once the baseboard was removed, mold could be visibly seen. Our team got right to work cleaning and repairing. We can’t control every scenario, but we can take some precautions. And if caught off guard, call us anytime around the clock to help out in an emergency flooding situation.
