This fire started on the stovetop in the kitchen. Although the smoke damage was minimal the bigger cleanup was due to water from the sprinkler system. From the apartment on the second floor into the hallway and flooded six apartments on the first floor. SERVPRO Winooski/Stowe responded immediately as requested!!

When water enters your home suddenly through the basement walls, foundation or floors it is usually ground water. This basement had over 5 feet of water prior to arrival. A trash pump was used to remove thousands of gallons prior to the use of a smaller submersible pump. Once the water has lowered to around 1/4" we then use our truck mounted unit to extract the remaining standing water... this method is much easier and quicker than a shop vac! With ground water the cleanup involves removal of silt that has seeped into the basement. All areas are cleaned and disinfected with an antimicrobial and pressure steam followed by the installation of drying equipment.

Water damage occurred in this property following a burst water line to the ice maker.

Some water losses require more labor than others. This basement required extensive cleanup due to 6+ feet of water upon arrival. Once the water was pumped out the dirt that seeped in from outside due to excessive ground water required hand excavation followed by a great deal of cleaning.
