The Water You Don't See.

The pinhole leak pictured was discovered only after the nearby light fixture in the ceiling below this drip began to flicker.  The homeowner had initially thought the flickering was due to a failing light bulb.

While changing out the bulb water had run out of the fixture.  He immediately called SERVPRO to come and inspect for water damage and help to find the source.  Pictured is what we discovered, we were able to get a plumber out within the hour to fix the issue.  

Upon further inspection, we had discovered that the subfloor was saturated and with the homeowners permission were able to perform the necessary steps to prevent any further damage from happening.

WHEN WINTER STRIKES!

While there are many ways to help prevent ice dam's during the cold winter months this bathroom took the melt back hard.

As the water started coming in the ceiling and insulation started coming down.  SERVPRO of Brainerd and Park Rapids was called in to assist in the cleanup and dry out. 

A few ways to help prevent ice dam's on your home:

• Ensure gutters are clean and secure.  Leaves and debris accumulate, causing a damming effect on gutters, which could lead to roof problems and water damage.
• Double check your attic insulation, making sure you have enough to prevent heat loss, which results in melting snow on your roof.
• Use a roof rake to shovel heavy wet snow off of roof.

When a late night storm tore through a nearby community SERVPRO was called out in the middle of the night for an emergency tarp job after a tree branch went through the roof.  We arrived the next morning to find extensive damage on the interior both from the tree branch and the heavy rains that occurred.  We were able to pack out and store the contents in order to perform the needed demolition and dry out of the structure.

Condensation seeped through this ceiling and into its wall cavities causing water damage and mold from an inefficient HVAC system. We set up a containment room, removed the damaged drywall and pocket doors.  After drying the affected areas our SERVPRO tech used his training to remove the mold that was not deeply set in the framing with abrasive sponges and a HEPA filtered vacuum to stop the circulation of mold spores.  Than it was treated with an anti-microbial. We saved all parties involved stress, money and frustration with our timely mold remediation.
