Water Leak Leads to Mold Discovery in Little Elm, TX, Home

Water damage isn’t always as straightforward as it appears to be. When not addressed in time, it can lead to several problems, including mold growth. When water makes its way into a home through walls, floors, and ceilings, the moisture creates the perfect conditions for fungus to flourish. If you suspect a water leak, it’s crucial to have the damage repaired as soon as possible to eliminate any possibility of mold growth.

A Moldy Bathroom Discovery

An insurance company recently contacted us about a home in Little Elm, Texas, with a water leak reported by the homeowners. When our team arrived, we discovered mold under the vanity cabinet in the main bathroom that had been previously undetected. Because it was a top-down water leak, we found more mold when we removed the large mirror above the vanity.

After our PuroClean technicians uncovered the growth in the bathroom, we notified the customer and the insurance company. We received approval to bring in a mold consultant for an additional assessment to begin the remediation process. Once that was completed, we started our work in earnest.

First, we contained affected areas of the home to ensure no spores would travel to other rooms. We removed all personal belongings that needed to be out of our way during the remediation process.

We used the latest equipment and proven techniques throughout our cleaning and disinfecting phases to conduct a thorough job. Our team used high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration and vacuuming to remove all traces of airborne spores. As a preventative measure, we disinfected all non-porous surfaces with a professional-grade solution.

After a week, we completed our work, and the family’s home was as good as new. Congratulations to our incredible crew on their fantastic job!
