The leaking AC unit caused water damage to the nearby carpet.

Last Friday afternoon SERVPRO received a call from a homeowner who had discovered soaked carpet in her basement. Upon further investigation she determined it was coming from the air conditioning unit. After she had a HVAC company out to take care of the leak, it was SERVPRO's turn to get in there and take care of business. They began by moving all of the content that was in the way so they could better access the affected areas. This was clean water so they carpet was saved, however the padding underneath needed to be removed because that can not be dried. Once the padding was removed, any excess water that might have been on the concrete was mopped up. SERVPRO ended up placing 10 air movers and 1 dehumidifier. The carpet and concrete were dried up in a matter of days. The customer stated she could not be more pleased with the efficiency and professionalism that SERVPRO displayed.
