The customer reached out after a bathtub left running in Unit 403 overflowed, causing water intrusion and damage in that unit as well as in the two units directly below—Unit 303 and Unit 203.
Solutions provided:
We dispatched our emergency team to all three affected units. Technicians performed immediate water extraction, set up containment to stop further spread, and used moisture meters to map saturated areas. We applied structural drying with dehumidifiers and air movers, removed any unsalvageable wet materials, and treated exposed surfaces with antimicrobial agents to prevent mold growth. Throughout the process, we coordinated with building management and tenants, provided progress updates, and documented the mitigation for insurance and future repairs.
