This dishwasher decided to malfunction over the weekend causing water damage on two stories of this three story home. Our crews were onsite and extracting within the hour to prevent any further damage from being done.

Category 1 or “Clear Water” – This water comes from a source that’s clean, for example your water supply line broke on your refrigerator, flooding your kitchen. That would be considered clean water. It can also come from a sink or a tub that’s overflower. However, when it comes to clean water losses, it’s important to act as quickly as possible because not only can it bring mold and mildew but the longer it sits and mixes with dirt or other particles on the floor the faster it can degrade from a category 1 to a category 2.

With water damage, the more air movement you can get on the affected area, the faster it dries. One way our team speeds up the drying process is by creating this barriers. This eliminates some of the shared space of an affected area, thus keeping the area that the air has to travel as small as possible. These plastic barriers just centralize the flow of air. Rather than the air having to run the length of the kitchen, it's just right around the counter.

After this homeowner's water heater malfunctioned, they were left with water damage on two stories. The leak happened above this door in the attic but seeped down into the exterior wall around the doors. Exterior walls are nearly impossible to dry without first removing the top layer of drywall. So, if an exterior wall is damaged, consider requesting our Reconstruction Project Manager to meet with you as well.

One problem with the quickly growing city is that more and more residential, multi-family buildings have to be constructed quickly. This residence was a victim of carelessness and were put out of their home due to pre-existing structural issues that were brought to light with heavy rainfall. The wrong type of paneling was used on this new build in Fort Worth causing the wind-blown rain to come straight through their kitchen wall and begin to cultivate mold growth below their wood floors. Keep these issues in mind while selecting your new residence!

We received a call from a pilot who had returned home after several weeks away. Unfortunately, he returned home to four inches of standing water throughout his home. What was a bad situation could have turned worse, he had electrical outlets in the floor, causing the water in the sockets to boil! We were able to turn off power to his home and save it ultimately from a house fire due to an electrical short. Our owner, Shane and our team responded quickly to get the water out of the home, and getting the home owner back to dry!
