Water Damage from a Tub Overflow in Chicago, IL
A lot of damage can occur from an overflowing tub, especially when it is in a high rise condominium. SERVPRO received the phone call at two o’clock in the morning that a homeowner fell asleep in the tub and flooded his neighbors on both sides of him as well as four floors below. SERVPRO ensambled the crew and drove to the condominium to stabilize the different condominiums while the project manager with the building engineer recorded the damages in each unit. In the unit where the damages started less work needed to be done than the units below. SERVPRO had to remove carpeting and hardwood flooring. Cut some walls that were too soaked and vented others that didn’t need to be removed. Drying equipment was set up and the crew moved to the next unit. The building engineer was very thankful at our team’s quick response since he had eleven other unit owners that he had to answer to.
