17. Case Study
Harry’s Home
Water Damage/Microbial
Remediation
Extreme long term water damage, with dwell time,
evolves into microbial conflagration, century home.
Homeowner proclaims it a misnomer that
the insurance company is an evil entity.

18. Harry lived alone in his century home in a western
Cleveland suburb. Typical of homes built during this time,
the residence featured a central boiler and radiator steam
heat..

19. During the winter, Harry suffered an injury requiring
hospitalization. During this time, the area
experienced a spate of severe cold weather. As fate
would have it, the boiler failed.

20. The radiators and water pipes froze and broke. As the
home was unoccupied, the conditions went
undiscovered. It was later ascertained that the water ran
and the home froze and thawed and froze again,… for
nine weeks.

21. This scenario created atypical conditions. Upon Integrated
Restoration’s arrival at the scene, they were brought into a,
albeit cold, rain forest environment. Interior surfaces of the
residence were at dew point. Rain was falling within the
home.

22. The loss had progressed from a major water damage to a
full blown microbial remediation project. Ceilings fell.
Floor lifted. Surfaces were covered with a confligration of
well established microbial growth.

23. Windows, doors, cabinets, and floors all succumbed
to the moisture and microbial damage.

24. Out of necessity, Harry interviewed his prospective
contractors, off site, at the health care facility where
he was residing. Integrated Restoration provided
Harry a digital presentation illustrating the
conditions at his home. Integrated Restoration also
provided a detailed order of events that presented
solutions to the challenges the loss presented.

25. Although shocked by the images, Harry was pleased with
the presentation and the proposed solutions. Integrated
Restoration was hired and put to task.
The initial challenge posed by this project was providing
heat necessary to effect a structural dry out and perform the
microbial remediation. Integrated Restoration proposed
installing a forced hot air furnace to immediately initiate
the dry out. This temporary furnace would then remain as
the home’s permanent heat source. All parties agreed. The
restoration commenced.

26. The aggressive microbial growth dictated that substantial
demolition take place. This included removal of
contaminated building materials, HEPA sanding, HEPA
vacuuming and treating surfaces with an EPA registered
broad spectrum disinfectant / sanitizer / cleaner.

27. Upon achieving microbial remediation and structural dry
out, to ensure a pristine indoor environment, an EPA
registered anti fungicidal coating was applied to surfaces.
The demolition, however, exposed serious framing issues
that required attention.

28. At times, a project’s challenges, present opportunities.
Installation of microlams addressed framing issues. The
design alteration opened up the first floor. Harry was
presented the proposals. He signed off. As he was non-
ambulatory, Harry was given weekly digital image updates.

29. Insulation and quality windows addressed prior heat
loss concerns.

30. Installation of drywall clarified the look of the new
first floor layout.

31. The before and after of the side entry landing
illustrates the transformation ongoing within.

32. The bath up demanded a new spatial layout and
updating.

33. The opened dining room became an extension of the
newly remodelled kitchen.

34. Oxidized Mortised locksets on painted flat panel doors
were replaced with decorative brass swags on stained raised
panel doors to provide a rich, beautiful look throughout the
newly refurbished home.

35. After selection signoffs, design build changes, windows,
doors, painting, cabinetry, flooring and trim, the completed
project was a dramatic upgrade over the original home.
Harry had overseen all of this from a hospital room with
weekly progress photos. When he came out to visually
survey the final project, Harry was pleased with his choices.
Harry shed tears of joy with how well his home turned out
and how well he had been treated.

36. At the onset of this project, one of the first sign offs
by Harry was a release authorizing the disposal of his
contents. This was necessary to facilitate the
repairs. Tables, chairs, furnishings, clothing and
bags and bags of personal contents were removed
from the home and placed in dumpsters.

37. As protocol, Integrated Restoration took detailed photos
and a video documenting the contents on site. The
insurance carrier was informed of the documentation.
The carrier hired an independent vendor who came to
Integrated Restoration’s offices and evaluated the disposed
contents. At the end of the loss, to his great surprise, the
carrier notified Harry that he had a contents settlement
coming. In his absence his contractor and his insurance
company had looked out for him.

38. When all was said and done this Integrated
Restoration project involved a major residential
structural dry out, full scale microbial remediation,
design build, framing, doors, windows, flooring,
drywall, paint, staining, cabinetry, trim, electrical,
plumbing and HVAC.
Harry Expressed his thanks to the city officials who
reported the loss, the adjuster who assisted him, the
contents management company, and Integrated
Restoration who provided such a positive experience
in a difficult disaster scenario.
