Location: Baton Rouge, LA

Why did the customer contact us?

SubflUnited Fire and Water in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, responded to a residential water damage emergency caused by an overcut subfloor in the bathroom. The improper cut left the toilet flange unable to attach securely, leading to an active leak and structural instability. Our team quickly assessed the damage and determined that both the subfloor and surrounding building materials required immediate attention to prevent further moisture intrusion and microbial growth.

Solutions provided:

To begin the restoration process, United Fire & Water performed controlled demolition to the affected walls, floors, and ceiling, removing all compromised materials and exposing the damaged subfloor for repair. We then set up professional drying equipment, including dehumidifiers and air movers, to stabilize moisture levels and ensure the structure dried thoroughly and safely. Throughout the project, our technicians documented each step for the homeowner’s insurance provider, ensuring a smooth and transparent claims process. Once the drying phase was complete, our reconstruction team restored the bathroom to pre-loss condition. This included repairing the subfloor, reinstalling the toilet flange properly, and replacing all removed materials, including new sheetrock, baseboards, trim, and flooring. United Fire & Water delivered a fully restored, structurally sound, and aesthetically improved space—reinforcing why we are Baton Rouge’s trusted leader in water damage restoration and residential reconstruction.
