Refrigerator Leak Cleanup in Gillsville, Georgia

Unfortunately, appliance leaks are a leading cause of water-related property damage. Several appliances are likely to leak, including dishwashers, refrigerators, washing machines, water heaters, air conditioners, and more. Since the home flooding was sudden and accidental, the homeowner's insurance covered the mitigation and reconstruction repairs. The homeowner contacted their local insurance company to file a claim and select Level Creek from the insurance company's preferred repair network. 

After the appliance overflowed, the Gillsville, Georgia homeowner noticed that their hardwood flooring was discolored, warped, and had a musty odor. Before the flooring can be replaced, immediate action to prevent further damage is necessary. The water damage repair process begins with mitigation. Mitigation involves determining the source of the leak, stopping the flow of water, removing the water, and lastly drying out the home. Mitigation also includes cleaning and mold prevention.

After water extraction and mitigation, the restoration process of returning the property to its pre-loss condition begins. The reconstruction team arrived at the house in Hall County, Georgia, and assessed the extent of the damaged materials. Based on the extent of the water damage and demolition necessary, the flooring needed to be replaced. The flooring and parts of the subfloor were torn out and replaced with durable laminate flooring. Lastly, the team installed baseboards, cabinets, toe kicks, shelving, new appliances, and more.
