Case Study: General Restoration – Sibley
Customer Problem
Daryl Johnson from Sibley, Iowa, experienced a structural issue in his basement that required immediate attention. The problem arose after a significant flood two years prior, which caused an exterior concrete block wall to push inward. While there was no water seepage yet, the potential risk of water damage remained a concern for the homeowner. Daryl had been living in the house despite FEMA’s previous assessment deeming it unlivable. With the wall pushing in again, Daryl decided it was time to seek professional help to assess and address the issue.
How Crew Responded
Crew Restoration responded promptly to Daryl’s call, understanding the urgency of the situation due to the potential for further structural damage and water seepage. The team assured Daryl that they could provide a pre-estimate for the necessary repairs. They gathered detailed information about the problem, including the material of the wall and the history of the issue. Recognizing the importance of timely intervention, Crew arranged for an inspection to be scheduled at the earliest convenience. Communication was maintained with Daryl to ensure he was informed and comfortable with the process.
Solution Provided
Upon inspection, Crew Restoration identified the specific causes of the wall’s instability and developed a comprehensive plan to reinforce the structure. The solution involved stabilizing the wall to prevent further inward movement and preparing measures to address potential water seepage. Crew utilized advanced techniques and materials to ensure the longevity and safety of the repair. The team worked efficiently to minimize disruption to Daryl’s daily life, keeping him informed of the progress throughout the repair process.
