From Leaky Roof to Restored Home: Water Mitigation Success in West Babylon, NY

At Restoration Pros NY, we recently tackled water mitigation for a West Babylon, NY residential homeowner. The homeowner reached out to us after discovering extensive water damage caused by a leaky roof. The damage had spread to the attic, bedroom, and bathroom. Here’s how we tackled and resolved the issue.

Initial Call and Assessment

When the homeowner called us, they were understandably distressed. Water had seeped into their attic, bedroom, and bathroom, affecting the attic floor, insulation, bedroom drywall, carpeting, and bathroom ceiling. We assured them we would handle everything and scheduled an immediate visit for a thorough assessment. When we arrived, we inspected the affected area using our moisture meters. This allowed us to determine the extent of the water damage accurately. We found significant moisture in the attic floor and insulation, wet bedroom drywall and carpeting, and dampness in both the bedroom and bathroom ceilings.

How We Tackled Water Damage After a Leaky Roof

After the assessment, we developed a detailed mitigation plan tailored to the specific needs of each affected area. Our main goals were to extract the water, dry out the spaces, and prevent any future issues such as mold growth.

Water Extraction and Drying Process

  • Attic: We began in the attic by removing the damaged insulation. Using an air mover, we quickly started the drying process. To make sure the air quality remained high and there was no mold growth, we used an air scrubber.
  • Bedroom: Next, we turned our attention to the bedroom. We extracted the water from the carpet and used air movers to dry out the carpeting and drywall. We also removed sections of the wet drywall and carpet to prevent further damage. The dehumidifier played an important role in reducing overall moisture levels in the room.
  • Bathroom: Finally, we tackled the moisture in the bathroom ceiling. With the help of air scrubbers and air movers, we successfully dried the ceiling, ensuring no lingering dampness that could lead to mold growth.

Monitoring and Quality Control

Throughout the drying process, we continually monitored the moisture levels with our moisture meter. This step was necessary to make sure that every affected area was completely dry. Once we were confident that all the moisture had been eliminated, we did a final inspection to confirm the success of our work.

Outcome and Customer Satisfaction

The water mitigation was a complete success. We managed to restore the attic, bedroom, and bathroom. The homeowner was completely relieved and satisfied with our quick and thorough approach. They appreciated our clear communication and dedication to ensuring their home was safe and dry.
