SERVPRO® Does Water Damage Restoration for a San Antonio Bathroom

Residential bathrooms are one of the biggest hotbeds for water damage in San Antonio properties. Humid weather, hot showers, and plumbing concerns can all contribute to an environment that elevates moisture and potentially damages structural materials and fixtures in the home. Even small pipe leaks can damage walls, floors, and cabinetry considerably without swift, decisive action.

San Antonio properties needing water restoration can count on SERVPRO for rapid-response, comprehensive services that can expand beyond moisture extraction or drying. Crew members implement mitigation, demolition, and repair services, including those related to bathroom remodeling, per Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) standards for home restoration.

How Under-Sink Water Damage Impacts Home Bathrooms

A pipe leak in this property damaged the bathroom sink cabinet and the flooring underneath. SERVPRO technicians responded to these damages by:

• Pulling up the affected flooring
• Extracting excess moisture
• Decontaminating the space with EPA-registered antimicrobial solutions
• Drying the area with air movement and dehumidification equipment

These strategies are essential to successful water cleanup, especially in bathrooms, which can be more prone to bacteria and mold growth than other areas of the home. 

While homeowners may want to take these restoration steps independently, trained technicians can implement them with full knowledge of the strategies and techniques necessary to avoid unintentional secondary damages from cleanup.

SERVPRO Bathroom Remodeling After Water Removal

After cleaning the space and removing water, SERVPRO needed to restore the bathroom to a pre-damage condition, which ultimately entailed a complete remodel. Steps taken to this end include:

• Removing and replacing the water-damaged cabinet
• Installing replacement flooring 
• Repairing and repainting drywall

After SERVPRO completed this remodel, homeowners could return to their daily activities without worrying about potential water damage lurking under bathroom surfaces.

Residents can call SERVPRO of Braun Station at (210) 267-2159 for restoration services that make it look “Like it never even happened.”
