Water water everywhere
This happened the day before I arrived on Friday. Apparently a furnace guy unplugged the sump pump and didn't plug it back in. In a matter of 30mins, there was 2 inches of water every where.
That shiny floor isn't a glass tile. That's laminate flooring with a layer of H2O.
The furnace guy came back and tried cleaning up the water. Some disaster guys, after getting lost, arrived from Peterborough, they and setup heavy duty dryer fans and worked til 2am to clean it up. The rug is out being cleaned.
All the baseboards off, cabinets up on styrofoam, flooring ripped up. It will all have to be replaced. It needs to be dry or else mold will form.
Damage was minimized as much as possible, but it was still a mess.
This is what insurance is for. Hopefully it will be quickly back to the way it was or if there's opportunity for improvement, it'll be better than how it was.
