Pipe Burst Water Damage in Huntington Beach , CA

A pipe burst under the master bathroom vanity, causing water to flood downstairs and soaking the ceiling, drywall, baseboards, carpet, and laminate flooring. The plan was to dry in place, remove laminate flooring in the hall bath, and check daily for progress. The homeowner was informed, and the claim is covered.

During the first visit, containments were fixed, and the flooring was partially removed. The area was drying but still had elevated moisture levels. Over the next visits, equipment was monitored, with some materials showing improved moisture levels. Holes were punched in the dining room ceiling to improve airflow, and the ceiling fan was detached. A leaky toilet in the hall bath was also addressed.

After several visits, all building materials met drying standards, and equipment and containment were removed. No major demolition was needed, and the job is ready for repairs.
