Ice Damage and Roof Colapse in Colchester CT.

By

While out shoveling roofs, fighting ice dams and water damage the crews at Al’s Absolute Best Cleaning and Restoration have suffered their own disaster! Ice Dam and Roof Collapse at our new shop.

Water Damage hits home at Al’s Absolute Best Cleaning and Restoration Services LLC. in Colchester Ct.
I came in at 4:00 am to sort out our emergency water damage, Ice dam and snow removal jobs, calls had been pouring in all night, as soon as I walked in the back door of our Flood and Fire Restoration Company I noticed water on the floor and looked up to find a bubble of water in the ceiling and the ceiling was beginning to sag in several areas.
As I stood starring at the mess my phone rings and the terrified woman on the other end described the exact situation taking place in her kitchen
as I’m looking at the similar scenario in my own shop, I say yes ma’am
I know exactly what you mean.

Soon after that call there was a big crash! The roof of our storage building collapsed.

Water Damage is happening everywhere in the state, forced intrusion by ice dams is the #1. Reason and melting snow and ice mixed with rain that can’t seep into the frozen ground is also being forced into some homes, if you see intrusive water in your home, it’s time to notify your insurance company.

Even the smallest water damage job can turn into a much more serious mold remediation job.
Every ice dam water damage job we have encountered has been covered by the home owner’s insurance policy; do not confuse this type of coverage with flood insurance, flood insurance would be a separate policy in addition to your normal home owners insurance however if you want to add flood insurance do it now, rivers are expected to reach an all time high this spring and will cause much more flooding.
