How SERVPRO Fixed a Double Bathroom Disaster

1/28/2025 (Permalink)

Targeted Drying in Action: SERVPRO's equipment hard at work restoring a water-damaged bathroom and preventing further damage.

A slow drip might seem harmless, but over time, even the smallest leaks can lead to significant damage. What starts as a minor issue can quickly escalate into water-stained ceilings, warped floors, and even mold growth if left unchecked.

One recent job highlighted just how quickly a minor leak can spiral into a major problem. In this case, a small drip from an upstairs bathroom seeped into the bathroom below, doubling the damage. Fortunately, SERVPRO was ready to step in and restore the spaces.

Assessing the Damage

When our team arrived, we conducted a thorough assessment and located all affected areas. To ensure effective drying, we:

• Drilled small holes in the ceiling of the lower bathroom to promote airflow.
• Removed trim and drilled into the base of the walls in both bathrooms to target trapped moisture.
• Monitored progress daily to track drying and adjust our methods as needed.

For the significant moisture hidden within the upstairs bathroom’s drywall, we used the Inject-a-Dry system, a targeted solution for hard-to-reach areas.

Restoring the Spaces

Once the moisture was fully addressed, our construction team took over to restore the bathrooms to their original glory. Their work included:

• Installing a new vanity, medicine cabinet, and light fixture.
• Reattaching baseboards and adding towel bars.
• Matching every detail to the customer’s specifications to ensure satisfaction.
