When a pipe burst caused significant water damage in a basement studio apartment in White Plains, NY, the homeowner knew they needed immediate help. They called QCC Water Damage, a trusted name in water damage restoration, to address the emergency and prevent further damage to their property.

Upon arrival, our expert team conducted a thorough assessment of the damage. The situation was severe: the apartment had 2 inches of standing water, and humidity levels soared to 90%, creating the perfect conditions for mold growth. Acting quickly to mitigate the damage, we began water extraction to remove the standing water and prevent additional harm to the property.

Next, our team focused on structural drying, deploying state-of-the-art equipment, including industrial dehumidifiers and high-capacity air movers. These tools worked in tandem to lower the humidity and dry out the apartment efficiently. Within just one day, we completed the demolition phase, carefully removing damaged flooring and drywall while salvaging parts of the structure that remained intact. Some drywall sections and cabinets were saved, reducing replacement costs for the homeowner.

Over the next four days, we monitored the drying process to ensure optimal results. By the time we finished, humidity levels had dropped from 90% to a safe 32%, effectively mitigating the risk of mold growth. This proactive approach helped prevent a major mold problem, protecting the health and safety of the homeowner and preserving the integrity of their property.

The homeowner’s insurance covered the loss, and a public adjuster was engaged to ensure the claim was processed smoothly. With our detailed documentation and seamless coordination with the adjuster, the client was fully reimbursed, making the entire process stress-free.
