Dealing with Water Damage: A Case of Bulging Basement Walls in Benson, NE

Before and after pictures of a bulged basement wall due to water damage.

In the wake of a devastating storm, a property manager in Benson, NE received a distressing call from one of their tenants reporting a bulging basement wall. Fearing the worst for the foundation, they immediately turned to Rainbow Restoration of Southwest Omaha for assistance.

Upon a thorough inspection, it was discovered that the bulging was not a sign of foundation damage, but rather swollen bead-board that had deformed due to saturation from a slow leaking clean water line. This type of slow leak presents its own set of challenges, as the damage can go unnoticed for weeks or even months, providing a breeding ground for microbial growth to thrive.

Slow leaks like this are often a result of inadequately insulated water lines during temperature drops, making them a silent threat to the structural integrity of a property. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, Rainbow Restoration's team sprang into action. The basement was meticulously dried out and cleaned, while a skilled plumber was summoned to address the leak at its source. Additionally, the mold-infested bead-board was promptly removed and replaced to prevent further contamination.

This scenario serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of addressing water damage promptly and effectively. Even seemingly minor leaks can lead to significant issues if left unchecked, jeopardizing the health and safety of occupants.
