A commercial building around the Love Field area of Dallas had a massive water leak that affected a number of floors.  The leak stemmed from a large crack in a pipe located in the ceiling of one of the offices.  It was related to the building cooling system.  The pipe and the system were old which not only caused a big issue but also made it challenging to turn off without turning off the water to the entire building.  

When it comes to old buildings, it is a good idea to have systems and pipes checked at least annually. Also, make sure that water shutoffs are known and contingencies are in place if the whole building can't be shut off.

In the DFW area we have crawlspaces due to the shifting nature of our soil Crawlspaces add another potential opportunity for water intrusion to create damage. Ideally, a crawlspace is dry all year round due to good drainage and no leaks in the structure. When wet, especially for extended periods of time, the moisture can cause the subfloor and floor to buckle. Our SERVPRO of Southwest Dallas team is often called in to dry out crawlspaces to reduce the damage inside the structure. This typically involves entering the crawlspace, removing standing water, placing air movers, ducting in hot, dry air while pulling out moist air. If you need assistance with a crawlspace dry out at your property, give us a call!

A Dallas home in the Irving area had water damage to numerous rooms due to a bathroom sink leak. The renters woke up and stepped onto a carpet full of water.   Walking the home, they discovered it water had intruded into 2 bathrooms as well.  After consulting with the owner, SERVPRO of Southwest Dallas was called to provide water damage mitigation services. Our onsite manager scanned the rooms to identify the extent of the damage, taking pictures to share with the out-of-town owner.  Baseboards were removed, air drying holes placed, carpet pulled back and carpet pad removed.  Water was extracted from the carpet, then air movers and a dehumidifier were placed for several days.

Constant communication was necessary with the owner and renter to get the job completed.  The owner was very happy that we were so prompt, were great communicators and very thorough.  Another satisfied customer for our great team!

A new homeowner in a newly remodeled home had some visual water damage in her bathroom.  Based on our experience, we knew that water is very invasive and most likely spread to other rooms.  Upon further notice first using our thermal camera, we did quick scans on all walls and floors in adjoining rooms to identify potential water damage areas. We then followed this up with our moisture meter to verify our findings.  The customer viewed our search and was pleasantly surprised that we located all affected areas.  It provided a great sense of relief that all problems were located, and no further damage would occur from this incident.

A hot water heater in the M-Streets area of Dallas burst while a family was on vacation. The family was gone for a number of days before a friend came to check on the house.

We received an early morning call from a Far North Dallas customer about water on every square inch of the first floor of their home.  They heard a noise and stepped out of bed right into water.  The home owner's wife was especially in shock and extremely distraught.  They had been in the middle of remodeling a portion of their home.  The plumber had done some incorrect work with one of the pipes causing a leak that occurred throughout the night.  SERVPRO of Southwest Dallas was called to extract the water and get the drying started.  

Our team was onsite shortly to walk the owners through the process and calm them down.  As happens on occasion, not only did the plumbing need to be fixed but the electrical setup in the home was not done correctly. Extension cords and a power distribution box were needed to enable equipment to run along with other big appliances like the refrigerator. 

Once extraction occurred and drying was in process, the next step was any necessary demolition.  In this case, that required removing baseboards, carpet pad, and some wall wood paneling.  

Another successful job in the books for SERVPRO of Southwest Dallas as everything was dried out along our scheduled timeline and a happy customer remained.
