When a Simple Outdoor Spigot Causes Major Water Damage: A Real-Life Account
Earlier in the day, our customer’s outdoor spigot burst, flooding the finished basement unit. A plumbing company came out and repaired the initial problem, but the unit was still left with a significant amount of water damage.
Our technicians arrived at the property and were able to quickly assess the extent of the damage, and then began extracting and mitigating any further damage that could occur.
Fortunately, the damage was categorized as level 1 and did not involve any sewage damage. Category 1 water is defined as clean and non-hazardous and usually comes from broken faucets.

When Disaster Strikes, We’re Here to Help: Our Trusted Restoration Cleaning Services
During the initial inspection, our customer insisted that they did not want to remove their belongings from the unit.
To honor her request, our team devised a strategy to move dry contents over to one section of the unit and wet content to another part of the unit.
We were able to minimize damage for reconstruction by removing affected baseboards, carpet, padding, drywall, and wet contents. We used 67 air movers, six dehumidifiers, and two air scrubbers to dry out the area within 3 days, resulting in minimal damage.
At Rescue Restoration, we understand that water damage emergencies can be overwhelming and time-sensitive.
With our 24/7 water damage restoration services, experienced technicians, and effective strategies in place for both diagnosing the issue and providing a solution; you can trust us to help protect your property from further destruction.
