The Flood Co. Reports on Ongoing Layton Utah Water Damage Cleanup Project

The Flood Co., based in Centerville, Utah, has reported on their ongoing water damage cleanup job for a home in Layton, Utah. The homeowner had discovered before the technicians reached the home that the source of the water was a crack in a drain line from the kitchen. While black ABS drain lines are expected to last a long time, it was found that there was a split in the pipe that resulted in two rooms getting water damaged. The estimated repair costs is $7,000 and the work is currently ongoing.

Daryl Olsen, president of The Flood Co., says, “We have been working on a water damage cleanup project for a home in Layton.

In this particular case, it has caused water damage in two of the rooms in the house. As you can see, such a situation can be costly as the estimated repair costs is $7,000.”

A common part of the home that can get flooded and water damaged is the basement. That is why a flooded basement cleanup is one of their most commonly used services. There are many ways that a basement can get flooded and these include a pipe leak, a water heater with a faulty pressure release valve, a leaking dishwasher, and toilet overflow. And one of the most difficult problems is a sewer line backup where black water gets inside the home, thereby contaminating the floor, carpet, and other items in the home. This can cause bacterial and viral problems that can affect the health of family members.

Another problem that The Flood Co. can help with is smoke and fire damage. Fires of various sizes can result into substantial damage for the home or business. It is not just the fire but the resulting smoke and soot damage, including the water that is used to extinguish the fire that can cause damage to the home. The water damage has to be attended to as early as possible just like with any flooding situation. And the smoke resident and soot will also need to resolved as soon as possible. This is because soot is highly acidic and in just a matter of days, it can cause permanent damage to various surfaces in the home or building, including furniture. An initial cleaning must be performed immediately and this should include the neutralization of the strong acid.

And then there is mold damage cleanup. Mold in a home or any living space is a health issue and has to be removed. That is why The Flood Co. offers mold inspection to detect the presence of mold. If mold is detected, they will proceed with mold removal, which they will perform under negative pressure, utilizing HEPA-filtered air scrubbers.
