Flood Damage Restoration - Apartment Renovation | DEMOLKA Jelenia Góra
A flood is one of the most destructive events that can affect a home. Water invading interiors leaves behind not only moisture but also a feeling of helplessness. This was the exact situation our client from Jelenia Góra found themselves in when they contacted us for immediate help. As specialists in demanding tasks, we knew that time and a precise action plan were crucial.
From Flood Intervention to Complete Renovation – A Case Study
The story we want to share is proof that even after the greatest disaster, a home can be restored to its former glory. The key is a professional approach and comprehensive service, which we at DEMOLKA prioritize above all else.
Stage 1: Site Assessment and Immediate Demolition Work
Upon arriving at the site – the ground floor of a multi-family house – our team first assessed the building's technical condition. Fortunately, the structure was not compromised, which allowed us to immediately proceed with the necessary work. Time was critical in minimizing further damage caused by moisture.
Our first steps included:
- Hacking off plaster from walls and ceilings: We removed all wet layers to allow the walls to breathe and begin to dry.
- Dismantling the wooden floor: A flooded floor is a breeding ground for fungus and mold, so its complete removal was essential.
- Debris removal and waste disposal: We secured and removed all waste, leaving a clean space for further work.
- Subfloor preparation: We prepared the cleared subfloor for the new flooring screed.
Stage 2: Drying and Collaboration with Partners
The most important element in combating the effects of a flood is professional drying. We carried out this process in multiple stages, using specialized equipment for heating and moisture extraction. Thanks to our collaboration with a trusted partner company, we also efficiently assisted with the installation of new floor screeds, ensuring a seamless workflow for the client.
Stage 3: Trust that Resulted in a General Renovation
The client's satisfaction with our intervention and professionalism led them to entrust us with the entire renovation. The demolition work smoothly transitioned into a comprehensive refurbishment of the apartment.
The scope of the general renovation included:
- New electrical installation: Ensuring complete safety and functionality for years to come.
- Plasterboard (drywall) installation: Instead of traditional plaster, we used a modern solution. Plasterboard allows walls to "breathe" and, in case of any future moisture issues, repairs are much faster and cheaper.
- Skimming and painting: Perfectly smoothed walls and ceilings were painted in the client's chosen colors, giving the interior a fresh new look.
