Why did the customer contact us?


This water damage project in Baton Rouge, LA was caused by a broken hot water supply line beneath the slab, which leaked into the master bedroom and potentially extended under the wood flooring in the hallway. The leak saturated the carpet in the master bedroom, requiring immediate attention to prevent further damage. Prompt response is critical for effective water damage restoration in Baton Rouge, LA, especially with slab leaks that can impact multiple areas and remain hidden beneath flooring.

Solutions provided:

Our team began mitigation by extracting water from the carpet and removing sections of padding that contained a moisture barrier, as these materials cannot be effectively dried. We then set up one commercial-grade dehumidifier and three air movers to accelerate the drying process. Throughout the project, we conducted detailed moisture and atmospheric readings to ensure proper drying conditions. In Baton Rouge, LA water damage situations like this, monitoring is essential to confirm that all affected materials—including subfloor and structural components—are properly addressed.

Additionally, we removed drywall previously cut by the plumber to inspect the sill plate and surrounding structure. Moisture readings at the point of origin were elevated, confirming the extent of the leak, but drying efforts were successful and the carpet is now fully dry. This water damage restoration project in Baton Rouge, LA is ready to move into the repair phase, where the carpet and padding will be replaced to restore the home to its pre-loss condition.
