Why did the customer contact us?

In Hammond, a recent water damage restoration job highlighted the challenges posed by a leaking sewer pipe that was located 2 feet and 4 inches below ground level. The leak was identified in the master closet, where a crack in the sewer line allowed water to travel along the foundation slab, infiltrating the flooring in both the master bedroom and bathroom. This situation not only created significant water damage but also raised concerns about potential health risks due to sewer contamination. United Fire and Water was called in to assess the situation and determine the best course of action for restoration.

Solutions provided:

The repair process in Hammond was strategically planned to minimize disruption to the homeowner. Our team recognized that accessing the damaged sewer line from the exterior of the home would be much more efficient than breaking through concrete. The repair distance from the exterior wall, facing the house, was estimated to be between 3 to 4 feet, allowing us to reach the affected area without extensive demolition. This method not only reduced the time and labor involved but also helped preserve the integrity of the interior spaces.

Once the repair was completed, United Fire and Water ensured that the affected areas were thoroughly dried and restored to their original condition.
