Loss: Sewer Pipe Failure

Solution: Expertise in Mold Mitigation Eliminates Health Hazard

Rolyn's Emergency Services team responded to an apartment complex that had been damaged by spillage from the plumbing system. The backup from the pipes was classified as "Black Water" due to the presence of sewage and other contaminants. "Black Water" is highly unsanitary and can cause serious illness. Rolyn began by clearing the waste and draining the pipes. A sewer line imaging camera revealed that the waste pipes on the first floor had deteriorated due to age.

The emergency crew performed a rapid clean up and decontamination of the affected property. During the cleanup, significant mold growth was discovered. Rolyn's mold restoration technicians were summoned to the project to handle the demolition and remediation. Due to the severity of the mold growth, affected units had to be entirely gutted.

During this process, the job was complicated by the discovery of asbestos in the drywall compound. Rolyn's certified asbestos removal contractors were called to the job to handle the abatement. Once the demolition and clean up was complete, Rolyn coordinated with the property owner's hygienist who deemed the property free of contaminants.

A complete scope of reconstruction work was then developed between Rolyn's estimators and the property representatives. Forty-one apartment units were fully renovated and reconstructed over a six-month period.

The supervisor's work ethic and job knowledge of the property and fire restoration has impressed both myself and the entire engineering staff. His commitment to complete the job was inspiring and unwavering, and his willingness to go the extra mile to ensure the work was done right was a direct reflection of the Rolyn Companies' corporate image."

I was amazed at the results. Not only was the work completed very quickly, but also it was done with such perfection. No matter how closely I look, I can't find any indication that the roof had been damaged or the ceiling replaced. The ROLYN Companies clearly demonstrated that they are professionals who take a great deal of pride in their work."
