The customer reached out because of a burst pipe that had caused their basement to flood. The Kingsley Restoration team showed up and removed the contents of the basement, and cleaned the area completely. Tiles and flooring were assessed for damage, and air scrubbers, air movers, and dehumidifiers were used to dry out the space. Antimicrobial solution was used on surfaces that had been impacted as well.

Our Team went out and assessed the water damage with the Homeowners. They explained to the HO the remediation process. Our Team started immediately by setting up two dehumidifiers and an air scrubber. They removed and disposed of the affected material. They applied an antimicrobial solution to the affected areas. It took five days for the basement to completely dry out.

An under-sink leak had flooded an entire kitchen as well as the floor below it. The ceilings were stained and wet, and the cupboards and subflooring were soaked as well. The Kingsley team used air movers and dehumidifiers to get things dried out for the homeowner and then worked with the homeowner to document the work that had been done and start the claims process. The team also made recommendations for what would be needed to repair and mitigate the damages that had been caused by the leak and the resulting flood that took place afterward.

A dishwashing machine had broken in an apartment building and caused flooding throughout several floors of the building. The team showed up to assess the damage and then began work to help those who had been impacted to get their living spaces dried out and ready for claims processing. All of the impacted apartments were treated with antimicrobial treatments, and then dehumidifiers and air movers were used to get the apartments dried out. The team also assessed the total damage uniquely for each apartment to provide an accurate total for the damage to the building that could be used by the apartment building owner to submit a claim to their insurance company.

The Kingsley team arrived within 90 minutes of receiving the call. We did a thorough assessment and discussed our aggressive plan of action with the homeowners. The homeowners were delighted that we could work directly with their insurance company, All-State. Once we were ready to get started on the project, we packed up their unaffected content and moved it to a dry area of their home. Then we removed, bagged, and disposed of the affected materials. Our IICRC-certified technicians then started setting up high-velocity air movers, commercial dehumidifiers, HEPA air scrubbers, and hydroxyls throughout the home to begin the drying process. The PDQ team visited the house every day until the house was completely dry and confirmed by performing a moisture test of the home.

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 problem. Our first step was a complete moisture assessment of the crawl space, the exterior wall, and the main building so we understood exactly how far the water had migrated and which materials were affected.

Because the intrusion was tied to the electrical work, we coordinated directly with the customer’s contractor before starting, making sure any necessary repairs were sequenced correctly so we weren’t drying an area that would simply be reopened. Once we were cleared to proceed, we set up a controlled drying process in the crawl space, positioning air movers and a dehumidifier to draw moisture out of the framing and subfloor and bring the space back to a safe, stable moisture level.

Throughout the job we tracked moisture readings to confirm the structure was genuinely drying rather than just feeling dry at the surface — the spots that stay damp underneath are exactly where rot and mold tend to begin. We cleaned and treated the affected areas to guard against microbial growth and to protect the wood and insulation going forward.

The result: the crawl space and surrounding areas were dried, cleaned, and stabilized, the structural integrity of the home was protected, and the homeowner left with a clear understanding of the repair that caused the issue so it would not happen again.

Kingsley arrived onsite within one hour of the call. They completed water and sewage clean-up within the upstairs bathroom and the downstairs finished basement. They utilized dehumidifiers and fans within the upstairs bathroom for a few days to ensure all moisture was removed from the air and walls/floor. They applied antimicrobials throughout both rooms to ensure no growth would take place within the home. They completed the entire remediation process to ensure all moisture was removed from the home.

February 19, 2022 | Forest Acres, SC

All areas involved were treated for mold prevention. A careful inspection of the home was completed once it had been drying for a couple of days. This made it possible for the insurance company to be updated about the progress of the project so that the next steps could be planned with the homeowner.
