Case Study: Water Damage – Service Area
Customer Problem
The customer, Bruce Cornish, was facing a significant issue with water damage in his home. Multiple areas throughout the house, including the ceiling and walls, showed signs of previous water exposure. Although some sections were no longer wet, there were still visible signs of damage such as cuts in the ceiling and potential bacterial growth on certain surfaces. This situation required urgent attention to prevent further deterioration and to restore the home to its original condition.
How Crew Responded
Crew Restoration, represented by Brandon, promptly responded to the call, despite initial scheduling challenges due to staffing issues. Brandon visited the site to assess the extent of the damage firsthand. He communicated clearly with Kelly to ensure both parties were aligned on the necessary steps. The Crew team prioritized understanding the full scope of the damage, which involved checking the ceilings, walls, and flooring for areas that required removal or replacement. The team also noted the need to address any bacterial growth to ensure the safety and health of the household.
