Large Scale Water Damage

1/15/2018 (Permalink)

This basement flooded with over 5ft of water due to a sprinkler system freezing and bursting. This weather is causing havoc in Luzerne County.

This extreme cold weather pattern continues to wreak havoc upon northeastern Pa. Picture above is a commercial property whose sprinkler system froze and burst causing a tremendous amount of damage. The property owner failed to maintain heat in the building which resulted in several pipe breaks. Since the building was idol the water continues to flow for hours before it began to inundate the structure.
The entire building experienced water damage and the basement filled with approximately 5 ft of water. The damage is extensive and since the property was not properly maintained, insurance will not cover it. SERVPRO of Hazleton/Dallas/Harveys Lake was called by the city to address the property.
