Recent Completed Jobs by Kingsley Water Damage & Fire Cleanup

October 5, 2022 | Arcadia Lakes, SC

When our team was called out to this Arcadia Lakes, SC home, the water damage traced back to an opening drilled for electrical equipment — the kind of small breach that can let moisture work its way into the crawl space and up into the structure long before anyone notices a ...

October 2, 2022 | Ladys Island, SC

The first task at this Ladys Island home was to get underneath the floor. A technician worked the crawlspace by hand, checking the underside of the subfloor bay by bay with a moisture meter. Flexible ductwork and the insulation batts between the joists had to be eased aside to reach ...

September 29, 2022 | Winnsboro, SC

A leaking toilet is easy to underestimate. It releases a small volume continuously rather than all at once, so nothing dramatic happens and the damage builds quietly. At this Winnsboro home the inspection showed exactly that pattern: elevated moisture in the bathroom subfloor, the bedroom closet and the hall closet, ...

September 28, 2022 | Sumter, SC

The first thing this job needed was an explanation, not equipment. Surfaces inside the home were checked for growth, starting with the kitchen cabinet the tenant had flagged and extending to fabrics and stored items in the bedroom and closet. Moisture readings were taken at the cabinet base, the wall ...

September 28, 2022 | White Knoll, SC

Our first visit to the White Knoll home was an assessment day rather than a demolition day. We walked the master bedroom and closet, the bathroom and its vents, the laundry room, and the crawl space underneath both wet areas, taking moisture readings in drywall, subfloor, and framing as we ...

September 26, 2022 | Westville, SC

Our first job at this Westville property was working out where the water was actually coming from. A wet crawlspace can have several possible sources, and there was a storm drain nearby that could easily have taken the blame. We inspected the space, mapped the moisture across the joists and ...

September 24, 2022 | Irmo, SC

Our team was able to get to the location of the call right away and help to begin the clean-up process for a flooded basement. The reason for the water issue was a bathroom that had flooded downstairs, which meant that the bathroom and the basement needed to have fans ...

September 22, 2022 | Gilbert, SC

The team showed up and looked at the various kinds of damages and made a report about what it would take to get the units that were damaged back to their original condition. There was also more work that needed to be done to dry out impacted living spaces, and ...

September 15, 2022 | Eastover, SC

Kingsley was able to get to this location an hour after the call came in. Both the upstairs and downstairs were involved, and the team worked hard to get damaged possessions out of the home, and the drying-out process was underway. All areas were treated for mold prevention, and a ...

September 9, 2022 | Dentsville, SC

This Dentsville, SC homeowner had been fighting the same mold for a while — microbial growth kept reappearing around the windows in several rooms, including bedrooms, the kitchen, and bathrooms, no matter how many times the surfaces were wiped down. That pattern almost always points to a hidden moisture source rather ...

September 8, 2022 | St. Andrews, SC

Dehumidifiers and air scrubbers, as well as fans, were used to dry out all the impacted areas. These areas were also treated with antimicrobial treatments for an added layer of protection against mold growth.

September 7, 2022 | White Rock, SC

Water that shows up on a kitchen ceiling has usually travelled a long way to get there, so the inspection at this White Rock home covered the attic, the upstairs landing, the kitchen and every affected ceiling area rather than just the visible stain. Water runs along framing and ductwork ...

September 2, 2022 | Lexington, SC

We started in this Lexington home with a full inspection, because mold that shows up in one room is rarely limited to that room. Using moisture meters and infrared thermal imaging, we traced how far water from the kitchen ceiling drain had traveled and where it was still sitting inside ...

September 1, 2022 | Atlantic Beach, SC

Picking up a loss that someone else started means verifying everything before touching anything. Our inspection of this Atlantic Beach home covered the kitchen, living room, pantry, hall bathroom and the crawl space below, with meter readings taken through the finished surfaces and again on the materials underneath them. Several ...

August 20, 2022 | Hopkins, SC

We arrived at the location of the call within an hour. Dehumidifiers and fans were used for two days to help remove the remaining water, and then antimicrobial treatments were applied. This ensured that there was no mold growth. We also worked with the homeowner’s insurance to help get ...
