Rain Storm in Stamford

12/31/2021 (Permalink)

Recently, a homeowner in Stamford had their basement flood as a result of heavy rainfall in the area.  Unfortunately, they had not been home at the time of the water damage, and saw the issue upon their return a few days after.  

When they got home, they found their finished basement full of water, and their carpet full of water.  The water had picked up rust along the way, which had stained the carpet.  The sheetrock and insulation in the ceiling and walls were also wet.

Fortunately, they made the decision to call SERVPRO of Stamford to remediate the damage. Our team responded quickly to the home, and got to work.  First, we extracted the standing water.  Then we removed the stained and wet carpet.  The affected sheetrock and waterlogged insulation was removed next.  Once all the affected material was removed, our crew set air movers and large dehumidifiers to remove the moisture from the area.  Lastly, we sprayed an antimicrobial solution to ensure that no mold growth would occur, especially as the damage had occurred days prior.
