Water Damage: Pipe burst while on vacation?

Exposed under sink pipe in bathroom.

We find it to be very important to occasionally check on your vacant properties. If you have plans out of town, or if it's a second home, having a trusted friend or family member come around to verify that everything is doing well a couple times a week is heavily recommended.

A couple in our community had some issues while they were out on a trip and unfortunately a pipe burst, causing a lot of water damage throughout the house. Thankfully, they had someone to periodically check on the house, and were able to do something and call us to help on time. Having wooden floors, it would have been tragic to have water standing for too long. If this would have happened, the moisture could have led to suspicious growth and the damage to be greater. 

Take notes! Even if it is for a weekend, especially during extreme weather conditions, consider having someone check up on your living space. As always, SERVPRO of Alexandria is here to help the community of CenLa with any emergency service regarding water damage. Contact us at (318) 427-7511 any time of day, and day of the week.
