Job completed for Alan B.

Completion date: December 9, 2022

Location: Gonzales, LA

Why did the customer contact us?

Alan called for help with water damage from a leaking washing machine.

Solutions provided:

United Fire & Water sent a technician to investigate the leak. The downstairs ceiling was wet and there was mold present in the closet ceiling. The cause was a backup in the washer drain. We set up a dehumidifier upstairs and an air scrubber downstairs for stabilization. Minor demolition was performed to remove unsalvagable structures. We wiped the mold off the wall in the closest and performed a flood cut in the upstairs laundry room. There was mold present behind the baseboard and on the sheetrock so we sprayed and cleaned the studs. Additional drying equipment was set up in the laundry room to reduce moisture levels and remove particulates from the air. The remaining affected areas were cleaned with an antimicrobial solution.
