When they discovered the problem, the water had already caused extensive damage. To remedy their kitchen chaos, they called PuroClean Water, Fire, and Mold Experts to assist with immediate water damage restoration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"19105\" src=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts-new\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2802-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19105\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2802-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2802-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2802-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2802.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A leak was found underneath the kitchen sink.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"19107\" src=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts-new\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2815-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"water damage caused by a leak. \" class=\"wp-image-19107\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2815-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2815-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2815-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2815.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The water leak caused water damage to the basement ceiling.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Water Damage Restoration In Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After receiving the call, our experienced technicians arrived at the home to conduct an assessment. Upon a closer examination, we found that the leak had gone unnoticed for so long that the subfloor was beyond salvaging. Its condition was too soft and moldy to save. Therefore, we needed to temporarily remove the cabinets and hardwood flooring to extract portions of the damaged subfloor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts-new\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2811-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Water damage restoration in Columbus, OH\" class=\"wp-image-19108\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2811-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2811-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2811-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2811-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Mold was located on the subfloor under the sink. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After the subfloor removal, we thoroughly dried the water-damaged areas using dehumidifiers to eliminate all traces of moisture. Our highly-trained technicians cleaned and disinfected the affected places with Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-registered disinfectants to prevent mold growth. Throughout our work, we used our proven PuroClean QuickDry System\u2122 to restore the kitchen to its pre-loss status promptly and efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The family was thrilled with our team and their performance when the job was complete. We congratulate our outstanding technicians for their fantastic work!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"19113\" src=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts-new\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2818-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19113\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2818-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2818-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2818-1.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"19112\" src=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts-new\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2820-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19112\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2820-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2820-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/columbus-oh-puroclean-water-fire-and-mold-experts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/643\/2022\/08\/IMG_2820-1.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\">A look at the kitchen after our water damage restoration work.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Call PuroClean for Water Damage Restoration in Columbus, OH<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Water damage can happen unexpectedly anywhere at any time.
