Elk Grove Water Damage in a Basement

Inside this rental unit located in Elk Grove, a failed basement sump pump allowed water to enter through a crack in the foundation and wick into the sheetrock wall, causing a mold infestation, as shown in the Before photo. SERVPRO technicians vacuumed the standing water and set up dehumidifiers to restore moisture levels back to normal and confirmed such with moisture meters and infrared cameras. Any waterlogged and mold damaged building elements were then discarded to prepare the basement for a final restoration and rebuild. The After photo shows the state of the affected area before we started the rebuilding process.
