What To Do When Your Upstairs Neighbor Causes Water Damage To Your Lancaster Flat

Living with neighbors on every side can be difficult; however, it is even worse if one of them causes water damage to your Lancaster home. When you left your flat for work in the morning, you did not expect to come home and find water damage to the ceiling in your kitchen. Worse off, the water damage is the color of rust and a complete eye-sore. However, it is fortunate that talented and professional help is never far from you.

The water damage to your Lancaster apartment came from a cracked pipe in the unit above yours. The water dribbled down through the structure of the building and stained your ceiling. Additionally, it also impacted the back wall of your kitchen. Whenever your property suffers water damage, it is never wise to leave it be.

Mold spores are omnipresent. They are everywhere, difficult to get rid of, and very harmless when inactive. The problem with mold spores is that excess moisture activates them, and they go from being harmless to potentially causes health effects. Whenever your home suffers water damage, never wait to get help. Microbial growth takes less than 72 hours to impact your home.

When you call SERVPRO, our technicians respond right away. We're certified by the Institution of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration. (IICRC.) Our techs are ready to face whatever they find in your home and can return it to its preloss state.

Once inside, SERVPRO can begin by using thermal imaging cameras to detect any access water pockets from the leak and identify all areas of remediation. We can start by removing your cabinetry off of the back wall and having it brought to our facility to be cleaned and dried. From there, our technicians can remove the impacted ceiling tiles and the portions of the back wall that were impacted. Furthermore, SERVPRO can remove any damaged insulation from your ceiling and between your walls.

Afterward, SERVPRO can set up drying equipment inside of your apartment. Our technicians can use devices such as heaters, air blasting tubes, air movers, ventilation fans, and dehumidifiers to dry the excess moisture. Once finished, we can bring your cabinetry back and reinstall it, so we can return your apartment to you, “Like it never even happened.”

If your home suffers water damage, don't let it sit. Speak with SERVPRO of Fitchburg-Leominster by calling (978) 537-1500. Day or night, we're open and ready to help.
