In June of 2008 a Hamburg, New York, family visited their summer cabin in Great Valley, New York. Unfortunately, upon their arrival they discovered the home had been victim to a series of water damage related issues.

Mold had taken over the entire cabin and was visible on almost every wall. The family immediately left the cabin and contacted their insurance agent who recommended Stanley Steemer to handle the water damage mitigation and mold remediation.

The homeowner arranged for Stanley Steemer to meet them at the cabin the next day to review the damages and put together a plan for the restoration. During the review, Stanley Steemer’s Restoration Manager connected with the claim adjuster to form a joint scope of the work to be done.

The majority of the cabin’s interior needed to be removed due to the mold damage. The cabin was then dried and air scrubbers were installed to remove mold from the air.

After removing the affected building material, the mold was remediated, the open joists were sealed, and plans were in place for Stanley Steemer to begin rebuilding. The homeowner was thrilled that Stanley Steemer could handle the entire process for them from start to finish.
