Job completed for B Ballard- water damage Baton Rouge

A residential property in Baton Rouge, LA experienced water damage affecting a guest bathroom, bedroom carpeting, and adjacent walls due to a suspected slab leak. 💧🏠 Moisture had spread beneath flooring materials and into wall systems, creating the need for immediate mitigation to prevent additional structural damage and potential mold growth.LA

Our team performed demolition of affected materials and began the drying process by removing all wet carpet padding while preserving the carpet where possible. The carpet was carefully stretched back into place, and drying equipment was strategically positioned underneath and around the carpet to maximize airflow and accelerate moisture removal. Areas were also treated with an antimicrobial solution to help address contamination concerns. Because the homeowner was elderly, an additional Velo air scrubber was placed in the bedroom to improve indoor air quality throughout the mitigation process. Professional drying and moisture monitoring are essential when dealing with suspected slab leaks, as water often travels beneath flooring and behind walls before visible damage becomes apparent.
