No, Just Me

Have you ever been sitting at your desk at work and one of the ceiling tiles just crumbled and fell down? No, nobody, just me? Okay, well this happened to me at an office I use to work in. We didn’t think much about it because why would we? We just cleaned up the debris and mess and put a new one up there. What we didn’t know was that water was due to the tiniest little hole in the roof letting just the smallest amount of water drip through to the ceiling tile. We also didn’t realize that this incident would cause many more problems because we didn’t do anything to fix the situation. This caused mold in the ceiling along with under the carpet and the baseboard because it wasn’t dried out properly. Putting a towel down or a little box fan isn’t going to help that kind of situation. So luckily we had SERVPRO on our side to come in and deal with the mold issue we ended up having along with the smallest pinhole in the roof. 

I know what you are thinking: that sounds like you could have prevented it. Yes, we could have, but as an outsider looking in that is easy to think. But think about the incidents in your home or office that you play off as nothing or something minuscule and later you figure out that you actually made it worse by sweeping it under the rug.

SERVPRO of Jackson/Crockett County is here for just that. Call us today so we can treat your water or mold issue.
