Frozen Pipe Flood Cleanup in Levittown

Structural drying is essential to flood cleanup.
Property Recovery 911 was summoned to perform an afterhours flood cleanup at a home in Levittown, PA resulting from a water a supply line freezing and bursting during a cold snap. In this instance, the home being built on a slab had no basement requiring the builder to run the water supply lines through the ceilings above to destinations throughout the home.

Water Damage Restoration in Bryn Mawr, PA

Property Recovery 911 was contacted by a homeowner in Bryn Mawr, PA to evaluate the cause and propose a solution to water damage discovered in their living room upon returning from vacation. Our analysis uncovered a split in the seam of a downspout along the adjacent exterior wall that was jetting water into voids in the brick pointing during rain storms. The result being high moisture content in the building materials within that manifested itself in the separation and sagging of old painted fabric wallpaper on two living room walls at the front corner. During water damage restoration, we discovered moderate mold contamination as well, which is testament to how quickly mold contamination can occur in a wet area with little ventilation.
