Why did the customer contact us?

United Fire and Water (UFW) responded to a water damage job in Lake Charles, Louisiana, caused by a roof leak due to a recent storm. The water intrusion led to significant moisture damage in the affected area, prompting UFW to set up specialized equipment to begin the restoration process.

Solutions provided:

To address the moisture issue, UFW deployed three dehumidifiers, three air movers, and one air scrubber to help dry out the affected areas. This equipment is expected to run for seven days to fully eliminate excess moisture from the interior, preventing further damage and the growth of mold or mildew.

In addition to setting up the necessary drying equipment, UFW coordinated with a roofing company to repair the damaged roof. The roof repair will be a crucial step in ensuring that no further water intrusion occurs, providing long-term protection for the property. Once the roof is fixed, UFW will proceed with the interior remodel to restore the damaged areas to their original condition. This comprehensive approach ensures that both the source of the water damage and the interior are properly addressed, bringing the home back to a safe and livable state.

Throughout the process, UFW has remained committed to the homeowner’s needs, ensuring that the right equipment is in place for effective drying and that the necessary repairs are completed with minimal disruption. With the roof repair, drying equipment, and upcoming interior remodel, UFW is taking the proper steps to restore the home and protect it from future damage. The project is expected to proceed smoothly, with careful monitoring of the drying process and timely coordination with the roofing and remodeling teams.
