DALLAS, Feb. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The recent Winter storm in Texas is wreaking havoc to homes all across the state. Record-breaking arctic temperatures, combined with the loss of power across the state, have caused pipes to burst in rapid fashion. Many Texans are left to clean up the mess and are scrambling to figure out what to do.
Frozen pipes cause severe damage
Dallas resident, Julie Dykes Pondt, recalled her experience, and said, "We lost power Sunday night and by Monday morning the temperature dropped to 43 degrees in our home. Power came on for one and a half hours, then off for eight hours, not returning to normal until Friday. Eventually, the main water line broke, and we had two to three inches of water all across our condo. We will have to rip out the drywall, flooring, cabinets and take the condo down to the studs." RainTight General Contracting is serving homeowners and property owners in this process. Miller Weedn, CEO of RainTight, said, "we are deploying teams quickly to protect their health and their assets". In many cases, mold and mildew can cause a serious health concern if not treated quickly and properly.
