Broken Pipe

A broken pipe in the bathroom

Broken or damaged pipes aren’t always obvious. Most pipes burst or leak without warning, and it can be days, weeks or even months before you notice the signs of a damaged pipe. However, once you do spot a leaking or broken pipe, it’s critical to act fast. A broken pipe that isn’t immediately repaired can become a disastrous problem. Leaking water may damage your property and belongings, and your furniture, appliances, carpets, rugs and even clothes can be ruined in a broken pipe accident. Water seepage that’s left attended can also impact your Business or family’s health, as bacteria and mold flourish in damp environments. In this particular case SERVPRO responded to a commercial water loss caused by a broken pipe in the restroom wall. The Client contacted us as soon as it happened and we were on site within an hour. We extracted water and set drying equipment and the customer was pleased with everything we did for them.
