Disaster Restoration Before & After Photos

A storm with gusting winds left a property in commerce with roof damage. The damage included several missing and damaged shingles, exposing the home to water damage. Common signs of roof damage include granule loss appearing in gutters, rising energy bills, and structural sagging. In addition to storm damage, ice damming, falling trees, and temperature cycles can weaken the roof's integrity. When deciding whether to file an insurance claim, it's important to act quickly and document as much as possible. 

Unpredictable property damage makes it crucial to have an insurance agent or project manager who truly has your best interests in mind. Upon noticing the water spots on the ceiling and drywall, the homeowner contacted their insurance provider to determine the best next steps.  Navigating roof repair or replacement with insurance can be tricky, and several factors like aging, normal wear and tear, and poor maintenance are considered during a claim event. 

After discussing the event with the agent, the homeowner selected Level Creek from State Farm's preferred repair contractor list to manage the roof damage recovery process. Contractors arrived immediately to assess the damage, tarp the roof, and coordinate next steps with the homeowner and their insurance provider. Once it was confirmed that the roof damage would be covered under the policy, Level Creek assisted the homeowner in filing an insurance claim.

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.

Lastly, the team installed baseboards, cabinets, toe kicks, shelving, new appliances, and more.
