The water damage repair company came out to figure out just how much it was going to cost to fix everything in the basement. I knew that they would probably have to remove most of the drywall and all of the carpet in addition to the furnace. The furnace seemed to be under about three feet of water, so I am not sure how it will be affected.

The day that I called the water damage repair company, they told me that since the flood had hit so many homes, there was a long list of people ahead of me that needed to be assessed also. I figured that it might take weeks for them to come out, but they ended up getting to my house about three days later. They had hired extra crews to help with the overload of people who needed help.

The other thing that needed to be taken care of from the flood was the fact that the CO deck construction company that had been installing my new deck before everything flooded had left everything laid on the ground and it had almost all floated away. I was not sure if my insurance company had to cover that or if the CO deck construction company’s insurance covered it. That will be my next call to make today.
