In December 2024, we were called to handle an emergency water damage situation near downtown Walnut Creek, not too far away from Walnut Creek’s Bart station. A clogged downspout caused rainwater to overflow and seep into the home through cracks in the exterior wall. The water affected multiple levels of the house, starting with the top floor ceiling and spreading to the second floor and down into the garage. When we arrived, the damage was significant. The restroom ceiling had water coming down, carpets and hardwood floors were saturated, and the exterior-facing walls were soaked. After a thorough inspection, we discovered wet insulation in the walls that needed to be removed to prevent mold growth. Our team quickly set to work, removing the damaged insulation and using advanced equipment to dry the affected areas. Large dehumidifiers and industrial fans were brought in to speed up the drying process. Thanks to our swift response, we were able to save the hardwood floors and prevent further structural damage. This situation highlights the importance of regular maintenance, such as cleaning downspouts and gutters, especially during the rainy season. Water damage can spread quickly, but with the right tools and expertise, it’s possible to restore a home efficiently.
