Since our time in water restoration in Charlotte this has been an extremely busy week. Typically, during the spring most of our water damage cleanup calls involve storm damage or typical leaks and pipe burst that lead to water mitigation calls. This week we had 2 calls for water restoration due to a water main break and water running into a near by home. There where a few watermain breaks in the city today with a very large one in downtown Charlotte. We received a call for the water mitigation from a home off Central Ave in the Midwood community not far from downtown Charlotte. According to the city there where issues with some part of the water main that led to water damage issues in other sections due to excessive water pressure. The customer explained when he came home from work he found water flowing into his home under the walls in the backyard. Once we arrived the water was still coming inside and we had to wait for the city to turn off the water main before we can get started with the extraction part of the mitigation process. While we waited we where able to move some items and complete a small amount of demo.
