Water Damage to Garage in Groveland, MA
This Groveland, MA homeowner saw water damage to the interior of her garage after heavy snow sat on top of the flat roof and began to melt.
This is an inherent problem with flat roofs. Without any pitch to the roof, the snow and water has no where to flow. It will eventually find it's way through imperceptible cracks or gaps in the surface.
After her insurance agent suggested calling SERVPRO of Haverhill/Newburyport, our estimator Brian Carifio went to survey the damage. Crews began working the next day to remove the drywall ceiling and insulation. This process not only exposes the point of origin of the breach but it also greatly reduces the possibility of mold having a home to grow.
Once the area has been properly dried and acceptable moisture readings have been taken, our team of restoration contractors can begin rebuilding.
