Remediating Extensive New London Water Heater Damages

SERVPRO technicians responded to the New London home in the Before Photo to address a water heater flood in a partially finished basement. The ensuing damage required moisture extraction, flood cuts on drywall, and other extensive repairs. Signs of moisture in the Before Photo might not be as evident on the surface. However, water damage behind walls and floors can quickly overtake a property and affect its comfort and safety.

The After Photo demonstrates just how extensive the damage was behind the surface. After the wall coverings were removed and flood cuts were made, SERVPRO professionals focused on extracting the excess water and drying the cavities. SERVPRO also provides sanitation with EPA-registered biocides and deodorization, which are often necessities after water heater failure occurs.
