Our area recently had a microburst storm pass through that damaged a local gymnasium, including the court. SERVPRO of South and West Charleston was able to remove approximately 1500 sq. ft. of the basketball court floor, extract all water, dry it out, and put the court back together in three days! Because of this quick turnaround, none of the day camps or basketball leagues were affected from a scheduling standpoint.

Whether insured or not, it is important for property owners to document damage with photographs or video, and immediately, to begin loss mitigation procedures themselves; or hire a qualified contractor to do this on their behalf.  It is totally inappropriate to put off mitigation while waiting for an insurance claims representative to arrive on the scene to evaluate the loss. 

By that time, in all probability sufficient time will have passed to grow and amplify microorganisms, which may not be covered by insurance.  Loss mitigation is defined by insurance policies as "reasonable and prudent measures designed to preserve, protect and secure property from further damage," including microbial growth and amplification.

Another rainy week in Charleston. We have been blessed with excessive amounts of rain which means very busy days. As photographed above; this house has succumbed to the down pour and now it is time to put the pieces back together.
