Last week, we were called out for a case of water damage in Valrico, Florida when new homeowners discovered an unsightly water stain in their living room ceiling.
"You know, we actually noticed it when we bought the house but
because it was a bit of a reno job, we just figured it was nothing and
we could paint over it," said one of the homeowners. Had the husband and
wife team, looked more closely at the stain upon purchase, they might
have thought twice about just painting over it.
In July of 2012, the homeowners purchased a house that was half
renovated as the previous owner ran out of funds to complete the
renovation. The homeowners were impressed with the renovations that were
done and figured that what was left would be easy enough to tackle.
Unfortunately for them, most of the renovations were done improperly –
common in the house "flipping" era of 2005 + where people hastily
"renovated" homes with cheap finishes to quickly turn a profit. The
shoddy renovations quickly exposed several problems with the house which
were only discovered once the homeowners took possession and moved in
mid-August. They finally called in our expert water restoration team
when the figured that the unsightly stain in their living room was
actually water damage.
