Storm Damage Destroys Residential Flooring

2/17/2021 (Permalink)

Recently, a home in Norwalk experienced significant water damage as a result of a winter snow storm.

The sheer amount of snow on the roof caused leaks in the rood to grow bigger.  When the snow began to melt, the water poured into the kitchen and adjacent rooms.  While everything was soaked, the flooring suffered the worst damage.  Water got underneath the laminate flooring, ruining the layer above.  The homeowner called us after the water had stopped leaking in and pooling on her floor.

We arrived and extracted the standing water.  We then dried the entire area so that reconstruction could begin.  Our technicians determined that the flooring could not be salvaged, so we pulled it up and began work on a new floor.  All surrounding and affected walls were fitted with new drywall.  You can see the difference in the photo.  We are proud of the work our team did for this homeowner.
