Job completed for Hoover- water damage mitigation

Completion date: October 24, 2023

Location: Baton Rouge, LA

Why did the customer contact us?

United Fire and Water recently completed a full water damage mitigation and reconstruction project in Baton Rouge, Louisiana after a homeowner experienced a busted pipe in the attic. The pipe failure allowed water to run down the walls and spread across the carpet, flooring, and sheetrock throughout the home. Our certified restoration team responded quickly, arriving with our water extraction truck to remove standing water from the floors and carpet and prevent further structural damage.

Solutions provided:

After the initial extraction, United Fire and Water performed a detailed moisture inspection and began the controlled demolition process. We removed all affected carpet and carpet pad, cut out damaged sheetrock, and addressed wet materials to stop secondary issues like mold growth. Industrial-grade drying equipment was strategically placed to dry the home to IICRC-approved standards, ensuring all hidden moisture was properly eliminated. Throughout mitigation, we closely monitored moisture levels to protect the integrity of the structure. Once the home was fully dry, our team transitioned seamlessly into reconstruction services. United Fire and Water replaced the entire home’s flooring with new wood floors, installed new baseboards and trim, and replaced all sheetrock that had been removed during mitigation. The result was a complete restoration that returned the property to pre-loss condition—clean, safe, and beautifully finished.
