When a water heater bursts in a home, the resulting water damage is already a hassle to any homeowner. But when the presence of water quickly results in mold growth, the hassle becomes a huge headache. Add to the headache a pre-existing respiratory condition, as with the case of a homeowner in Hollywood, Florida, and you end up with a massive migraine that can only be handled with the help of professionals.

Unfortunately for this Hollywood homeowner, the water heater leak began in the enclosing closet, then spread to the dead space between the stairwell and the water heater closet, then to the closet below the stairs, and from there to the hallway, hallway bathroom, living room, and dining room. And sadly, when all that water was introduced, it made conditions just right for rapid mold growth to occur.

Joe Taylor Restoration was brought in to deal with the microbial invader that had already begun to negatively impact the homeowner. His respiratory condition was worsening daily with the presence of the mold. A mold remediation protocol was quickly prepared by a certified air quality testing agency. And that protocol was then meticulously followed by our trained and highly qualified technicians.

Proper mold remediation required the removal of most of the flooring in the affected areas- in some sections, down to the cement. Also included was the removal of toe kicks, cabinetry, wallboard, and the like, as well as the set up of containment, air scrubbers, and other equipment necessary for mold remediation.

This was an involved job, but in the end, the homeowner was happy and healthy, his “migraine” cured.  On his Certificate of Satisfaction he wrote, “The team went above and beyond with the work they did. They were kind and courteous. Victor was particularly kind. It has been a long time since I have witnessed a group like this! Five Stars! Highly recommend!”
