Quick Response Time Is Critical When You Have Water Damage

Water Damage can occur from a variety of sources; Basement Flooding, Plumbing leaks, Burst Pipes, and Frozen Pipes just to name a few.

Immediate response to a Water Damage is the most critical thing in minimizing the amount of damage that the unwanted water can cause. Typically Green Clean can respond to a Water Damage Emergency in less than an hour. We have staff on call twenty four hours a day, 365 days a year for water damage restoration and repair.

The reason why response time is so critical is because the water will migrate rapidly to other areas and will quickly be absorbed by porous materials such as carpeting, carpet padding, drywall and insulation in walls and between floors.  The sooner the water is removed, the less area is affected.

The second reason why response time is so critical is because after water intrusion, mold and bacterial spores germinate and multiply.  One organism can multiply to more than one billion organisms in less than 24 hours. You typically have 72 hours to dry porous materials, after that time we recommend removal and replacement due to health concerns.

Water Damage Restoration Specialists for a Flooded Stockton, Minnesota

Why R&C Cleaning is an excellent choice for Water Damage Restoration throughout MN

     On Saturday, August 18, many people in Minnesota were thrilled when they heard the rain beating down. It had been a hot, dry summer and a little moisture was just what was needed. Or so they thought. Too much rain was coming too quickly for several towns in southeastern Minnesota, resulting in flash floods that filled basements with mud and completely washed away some of the area’s homes. Seven people died in the floods and hundreds of others were left homeless.  

     Lance Ladewig is now one of the homeless. But only temporarily. Ladewig, a lifelong resident of Stockton, Minn., was in La Crosse, Wis., when the floods hit. “Luckily, I was visiting my girlfriend,” he said. “A buddy called and said they were evacuating Stockton.”

    There wasn’t anything Ladewig could do until morning. So he just waited. Finally, he “snuck into town” at about 8:15 am on Sunday to survey the damage. What he saw was mind-boggling. Nearly all the houses in town were filled with water and mud, including his primary residence and three rental properties owned by his family. With help from volunteers, Ladewig did the only thing he could. He started cleaning.

    While Ladewig cleaned, Jason Schroeck, an old high school friend who now lives and works near Minneapolis, worried. Schroeck is one of the owners of Blaine, Minn.-based R&C Cleaning Specialists. Shortly after the flooding stopped, Schroeck called Ladewig to find out about the situation in Stockton. “Lance thought he was getting it cleaned up OK,” Schroeck said. “I said, ‘Let’s get your house to the point where there’s a somewhat clean environment.’”

     The experts at R&C Cleaning don’t just clean up the daily dirt and grime that gets into carpets. They are also specialists in water damage restoration. That’s why Ladewig eagerly took Schroeck up on the offer to help clean up and dry out the Stockton houses.

    On Friday night, August 24, Schroeck loaded one of his specialty carpet-cleaning vans with three large dehumidifiers and 10 high-velocity fans. The vans are also equipped with powerful water extraction equipment. When he got to Stockton, he got to work, helping to salvage not just Ladewig’s home, but also the homes of the families renting from Ladewig. Schroeck spent the weekend removing wet insulation and the 97.1 percent of humidity that lingered in Ladewig’s basement.

       In addition to the high-tech equipment that R&C continues to lend to Ladewig, the company hasalso provided antimicrobial cleaning agents to clean up mold and mildew and guard against the accumulation of more dangerous dirt.

    Currently, Ladewig’s primary residence is dried out and nearly livable. The only flood damage inthat house was in the basement. Now that it’s all cleaned up, Ladewig will be moving back in as soon as the electricity is rewired and turned back on.

    Ladewig continues to clean out and dry the other three houses, all of which sustained water and mud damage not just in the basement, but also on the first floor—in one case as far as three feet up the walls. He is still using the equipment and supplies provided by R&C Cleaning, and hoping to allow his tenants to move back in as soon as possible. “Jason’s equipment is in the other properties now,” Ladewig said. “We can’t have sick tenants.”

     R&C Cleaning donated equipment, chemicals, antimicrobial agents and labor to the flood cleanup in Stockton. “I think it would be a pretty substantial ticket,” Ladewig said. “Humidifiers tend to rent for around $150 a day. That would be a big hit. I’m really in debt to Jason and to R&C Cleaning.”
