Got a call from an apartment community in Sacramento, they had a leak in an upstairs unit. The damage was extensive in the downstairs unit. Here a picture of the laundry room walls. The walls were opened and fans and dehumidifiers were used to dry out the area.
The water had traveled done the walls unforefunately we were busy getting the job completed and didn't get a chance to take many before pictures. The residents needed us to get the walls open and dried, so we could put things back to normal. Here is the new drywall up and ready for texture.
Here is the same wall a few hours later. It wasn't long before things were completely restored to normal, and we were off to the next job.

Well there may not be an obvious above the floor leak, but certainly you have a problem.
ReplyDeleteI'd pull the toilet first, check and replace the wax ring, using one with a rubber flange embedded, DRY the floor, check the sub floor for damage, unless you're on a slab, also check the location of the toilet inlet plumbing. Wall/Floor.
