Water damage can happen to anyone at any time. Thankfully, you always have SERVPRO of Yorba Linda/Brea at your disposal for any of your water damage remediation needs. Some of the calls we receive lead to projects that can be completed within a day or two, but others take a little bit longer. Depending on the damage, we will make sure to be at your house until the water damage is completely removed and safe for future living. We pride ourselves on our efficiency, so taking too much time should not be much of a problem.

A homeowner in Riverside recently contacted us with a slab leak. His first call had been to his plumber, who came out and diagnosed the leak after the homeowner had noticed some damp laminate flooring. From there, the plumber told him that he needed to call a water damage company to take a look. The plumber recommended that he call SERVPRO of Yorba Linda/Brea. 

We immediately dispatched our Project Manager, Jonathan Arcila, to the home to take a look at the damage. He found that the kitchen was luckily the only room affected, but unfortunately the damage was pretty extensive. Jonathan called our Crew Chief and technicians out to the scene to get the work started. 

Our technicians ended up removing the lower cabinets as well as some drywall and laminate flooring. Then we set up air movers and dehumidifiers to make sure everything was completely dried all the way through and that mold would not be a threat in the future. Between the removal and the drying, the entire project took a full eight days to complete. 

The homeowner was so happy with our work! Though it was a long eight days for him, he knew his home was safest in the hands of SERVPRO of Yorba Linda/Brea and he would absolutely be calling us again in the future.
