🏆 Restoration Complete! Kingsley Cleans Up Catastrophic 2nd Story Flood & Ceiling Collapse in Goose Creek, SC

At Kingsley Water Damage and Fire Cleanup, we specialize in tackling the toughest residential disasters. We recently completed a major water damage restoration project right here in Goose Creek, SC, after a severe second-story flood caused a devastating ceiling collapse.

The homeowners faced a nightmare scenario: a burst pipe upstairs flooded the second floor, sending torrents of water through the structure. The result was a section of the first-floor ceiling giving way, leaving a massive mess and extensive water damage on both levels.

The Scope of the Damage

This wasn't a simple fix. The job required swift, comprehensive intervention to ensure the home was safe and structurally sound:

• Second Floor: Flooring, subflooring, and wall cavities were completely saturated, posing a high risk for mold growth.


• First Floor: The collapsed ceiling debris contaminated the lower level, soaking carpeting, drywall, and structural components.

Our Certified Restoration Process

Our IICRC-certified team immediately deployed to secure the property and begin the multi-phase remediation process:

• Emergency Mitigation & Water Extraction: We first secured the remaining structure and used industrial pumps to remove standing water from both floors. Saturated, non-salvageable materials, including the collapsed ceiling drywall, were safely removed.


• Advanced Structural Drying: Using specialized dehumidifiers and high-speed air movers, we achieved targeted drying, bringing the remaining structural materials back to their safe, pre-loss moisture levels. We utilized thermal imaging to verify that all hidden moisture was eliminated, preventing future mold issues.


• Sanitization and Mold Prevention: Since the water affected both floors, we performed thorough cleaning and applied EPA-registered antimicrobial treatments to all affected areas, ensuring the entire structure was sanitized and protected against microbial growth.


• Complete Restoration & Reconstruction: Once the property was certified dry, our team moved seamlessly into the final phase. We replaced the collapsed ceiling, installed new drywall, repaired affected trim and flooring on both levels, and completed all necessary finishing work.
