Water, Fire, Smoke, and Mold Damage Restoration in

Slatington Borough

, 

PA

Slatington sits along the Lehigh River, so riverside and low-lying areas face flood exposure, the borough has a history of river flooding, and basements take on water when the river rises. Its older homes were built close together with full basements, plaster walls, and aging plumbing, and in connected homes a burst pipe or backed-up main moves fast through joist cavities into adjoining walls. Pulling that moisture out fast and fully is what keeps a water loss from feeding mold.

Fire risk in this older, closely built housing is heightened by shared walls, balloon framing, and decades of renovation layered over original construction, which let smoke and flames climb quickly between floors and units. We trace that spread, check shared walls, dry the structure properly, and remove odor from old plaster and wood at the source.
