Job completed for Matt M

Completion date: August 3, 2026

Location: Millbury, OH

Why did the customer contact us?

Customer faced a prolonged water damage incident, occurring over a month prior, resulted in elevated moisture levels in the framing and sill plates of the bathroom and closet, despite most other areas appearing dry. This also led to material damage, including discolored materials and affected insulation, indicating potential mold growth.

Solutions provided:

The restoration team conducted an assessment to identify remaining moisture and material damage. Elevated moisture was detected in the framing and sill plates, prompting the removal of drywall in the bathroom and closet. Carpet and padding were removed from the living room, and one-foot flood cuts were performed in the bathroom and closet. Affected drywall, insulation, baseboards, and a 13-foot section of wood paneling were removed to facilitate wall cavity inspection and moisture tracking. Further demolition in the laundry room and garage involved removing additional discolored materials and affected insulation. Flooring was removed from the laundry room and bathroom, and remaining paper backing on concrete floors was scraped clean. Affected contents were thoroughly cleaned and wiped down. Atmospheric and moisture readings were consistently taken, and exposed materials and work areas were treated with an appropriate antimicrobial solution. Drying equipment was strategically positioned and adjusted, with ongoing monitoring scheduled for the affected framing and sill plates. The job concluded with final walkout photos and comprehensive documentation.
