Job completed for Skipper- Water Damage Baton Rouge, LA

Completion date: May 28, 2024

Location: Baton Rouge, LA

Why did the customer contact us?

United Fire & Water responded to a residential water damage emergency in Baton Rouge, LA, caused by a leaking hot water heater. The leak affected both the ceiling and wood flooring, requiring immediate action to prevent further structural damage. Our team arrived promptly with professional moisture meters and an extraction truck to remove all standing water from the floors and assess the extent of the water intrusion.

Solutions provided:

To properly mitigate the water damage in Baton Rouge, LA, we performed a 2-foot flood cut in two rooms and removed sections of flooring that had absorbed moisture. Once the damaged materials were cleared, we set up industrial-grade drying equipment to thoroughly dry the affected areas. Our technicians monitored moisture levels daily to ensure the home was fully dried to IICRC standards and safe for reconstruction.

After confirming the structure was completely dry, United Fire & Water returned to the Baton Rouge, LA property to complete the restoration. We replaced the removed sheetrock, repainted the walls, and installed new flooring to match the original design—bringing the home back to its pre-loss condition. This hot water heater leak project showcases our commitment to fast, professional water damage restoration services in Baton Rouge and the surrounding areas.
