Water damage event while homeowner was out of town!!

4/4/2019 (Permalink)

In the featured photo you can see extensive water damage that left the floor damaged beyond repair, and visible mold present.

SERVPRO of Sun City/Sun City West/Southeast Surprise would like to take the time to give our residents and community members some advice since it is summer and lots of you folks may be traveling out of town. 

One of our Surprise residents was away from their home for a long time. During their vacancy, a water damage event occurred and went unnoticed. When the homeowner returned to their home, they found it in ruins. Ceilings had collapsed on the first floor, as water flowed from an upstairs toilet for what looks like days. The home had so much water damage inside that you could see signs of water flowing down the brick of the home on the outside. What is even worse is that the water  caused damage to the HVAC system and the system shut down. At that point the home became a breading grounds for microbial growth to start forming and it did, as you can see in the picture. Of course once SERVPRO of Sun City/Sun City West/ S.E. Surprise received notice of the water loss and mold damage our production technicians were on site immediately and went to work to restore this Surprise home. 

Our advice to our customers, if you go out of town, please have a trusted friend or family member or even a property manager go check on your property as frequently as possible. It is very important to catch water damages when they happen so your home suffers less damage.
