Why did the customer contact us?

The homeowner contacted United Fire & Water after discovering ongoing water damage caused by a slow washer leak that had gone unnoticed for several months in Baton Rouge, LA. Once a plumber repaired the leak, our team was dispatched to assess the damage. During the inspection, our professionals identified moisture intrusion and extensive mold growth within the shared wall between the kitchen and laundry room. This type of prolonged exposure is a common cause of hidden mold issues in homes throughout Baton Rouge, LA, making prompt professional remediation critical.

Solutions provided:

Due to the severity of the mold and water damage in Baton Rouge, LA, United Fire & Water carefully removed built-in cabinets on both sides of the affected wall, along with the washer, dryer, and a refrigerator with a full-height cabinet. To ensure proper containment and prevent cross-contamination, containment barriers were established in both the kitchen and laundry room. This controlled environment allowed our technicians to safely perform mold remediation while protecting unaffected areas of the home.

Throughout the remediation process, air scrubbers, a commercial-grade dehumidifier, and high-powered air movers were strategically placed to remove mold spores and airborne contaminants while drying the remaining structural materials. After all mold-affected materials were addressed, the exposed surfaces were treated with a professional antimicrobial solution to help prevent future mold growth. United Fire & Water is proud to provide thorough water damage restoration and mold remediation services in Baton Rouge, LA, helping homeowners restore a safe and healthy living environment.
