Flood Cleanup In Star Valley, WY

7/29/2012

 
Picture
My phone rang at 7 a.m. yesterday(Saturday) morning and as I looked at the caller id, I noticed that it was a local number, but not one of my regular customers which I have their names programmed into my contacts lists.  I knew that this could only be one thing....  An Emergency.  The voice on the other end said that they had a flood overnight due to an electricity issue and a faucet being left on and that they needed someone to come and pump out the water.  I was of course asleep, but I told her that I would be there within the hour and i hopped into my work truck and cruised on over to Fairview Wyoming which is is Star Valley and got right to work. 

When I arrived it did not look as bad as I had pictured in my mind.  When someone calls and says that they have had a flood, I always picture furniture floating around and water leaking from the ceiling everywhere.  With this job, I only experienced one of those scenarios. 

Picture
This basement had a wooden subfloor installed over the concrete. This presents a challenge to drying it completely, as the joints most assuredly had leaked through and this will have to be dried underneath. The carpet padding is almost always a total loss.
Picture
This ceiling was dripping in a few spots. I poked my finger into some of them to allow the rest of the water to fall onto the carpet so that it could be extracted out.
Picture
This is an older farmhouse in Star Valley Wyoming and the subfloor was almost completely saturated with water from the flood. It will have some heated fan units on it for about 3 days to make sure that it is dried out and so that mold does not grow.
This flood cleanup in Fairview Wyoming was not the largest flood that we have cleaned up, but I was glad to do it in the summer.  Most of the floods that we get in Star Valley Wyoming happen in the winter due to pipes freezing and the weather here can easily get 10-20 below 0 and stay there for days.  For the customers sake, I would rather not have this happen at all, but If floods do occur, we are ready to respond rapidly to get the water extracted and get the place dried out.

RYC, out
