Flooding in a Residential Home
If you happen to be experiencing water damage from the recent storm that hit Southern California, you are not alone. Many Glendale residents as well as those in the surrounding areas experienced water damage and flooding in their homes and businesses. Once the storm passed, not everything was sunshine and rainbow.
This residence in Glendale, California had the same unpleasant situation with rainwater flooding into their home from the backyard. The sliding patio door was not enough to keep the stormy weather out. Because of this, all the carpeting in the family room was completely soaked. When our technicians got to the residence, they checked the saturation level and the water had made it to the padding, located under the carpeting. The first call to action was to extract all the excess water from the residence. It was finding its way down the hallway, which our water damage technicians discovered could be saved and dried.
SERVPRO® of Central Glendale’s Storm Technicians Got to Work
Once the carpeting in the family room was damp enough to handle, our technicians began to remove it, so it would not begin the mold growth process. Our experts understood that if the carpet was left, it would have been subject to mold growing under it in no time. That could lead to bigger issues in the coming weeks, with foul smells and possible health scares.
Once the residential property owner signed paperwork and our storm damage techs got to work removing the rainwater, the home was like new again. The family living in the house got to choose new carpet for the family room plus they did not. have to worry about replacing anything in the hallway area.
