Water Restoration Services For Near West Side Complex
We received a call from a concerned customer about water leaking into their downstairs neighbor’s unit through the ceiling. The owner was extremely concerned about the water damage and the risk of mold growth in their home.
Water Leak Caused by HVAC Unit Overflow
Once our team arrived, they immediately began inspecting the water leak and checked for any potential signs of mold growth. The water leak was from an overflowing HVAC unit floor drain.
Safety is our top concern, so we always make sure to look for mold issues. Luckily no signs of microbial (mold) growth were found and we assured the customer that they were safe and in good hands.

Water Damage Restoration Process
Our team on-site quickly got to work to dry the owner’s home using our drying equipment like air movers and dehumidifiers. We installed an air scrubber which is a machine that uses HEPA air filters to remove contaminants like mold spores and viruses from the air.
This ensures that they were breathing clean air during the restoration process, giving them more peace of mind. Within four days, their home was completely dry and there was no mold.
