Few things are more stressful than discovering a broken water supply line in your bathroom, especially when it causes extensive damage across multiple levels of your home. That’s exactly what happened to one of our recent customers in Denver. A sudden water loss from a broken master bathroom supply line (Category 2 water) affected several areas, including the upstairs, main floor, basement, and crawlspace.
When our PuroClean of Central Denver team arrived, the homeowner was understandably overwhelmed. Water had spread quickly from the upstairs bathroom, soaking through ceilings, floors, drywall, and even reaching the basement.
The Extent of the Damage
Our inspection revealed water impact in several key areas:
- Upstairs Master Bathroom: Tile floor and drywall were partially saturated.
- Main Floor Hallway & Kitchen: Water affected ceilings, walls, cabinets, and hardwood floors.
- Basement Family Room & Bedroom: Carpet, padding, drywall, and baseboards were completely soaked.
- Furnace Closet & Crawlspace: Insulation and framing were wet, with standing water beneath the vapor barrier.
This type of multi-level water damage required immediate professional attention to prevent mold growth, structural damage, and secondary issues.
Our Process
Our certified technicians took quick and precise action:
- Removed affected materials like carpet, baseboards, insulation, and sections of drywall and ceiling.
- Set up containment barriers in the basement (about 250 sq. ft.) to control air movement and prevent cross-contamination.
- Deployed advanced drying equipment, including dehumidifiers, air movers, and HEPA-filtered air scrubbers.
- Cleaned and disinfected all impacted surfaces using EPA-approved antimicrobial solutions.
- Used PPE and HEPA vacuuming to maintain safety and air quality throughout the process.
Every step followed IICRC industry standards to ensure a thorough and safe mitigation process.
The Homeowner’s Experience
After our team, led by Javier and Nicola, completed the job, the homeowner left this heartfelt feedback on their Emergency Service Evaluation (ESE):
“Javier and Nicola were amazing during a very stressful time. They all deserve a Job Done spot bonus.”
We’re incredibly grateful for such kind words and proud to have helped this family recover quickly and safely.
