Nightmare on Arbor Downs Drive

Nightmare on Arbor Downs Drive- My day started so innocently, as I prepared to wait for the Lowes truck to arrive with my new refridgerator. I decided I would run a load of wash, as my hamper was getting rather full. No sooner had the wash cycle ended and the water was leaving the washer receptical out the hose, did I hear a noise coming from the master bathroom. I ran to see what was going on and found "Old Faithful" rising from the commode, flooding out from the shower basin as well with awful sewage gunk! I am not completely unpacked from my move and so I was frantically running from one room to the next fetching anything that would soak up this awful mess. In the midst of the crisis I called a plumber who said they would come out immediately. Thanks to the plumber, the pipes are now un-clogged, took hours. Next, a WRS(Water Removal Specialist) came to investigate the scene and proceeded to tell me that "this is a Cat 3 situation and everything must be disposed of". A quick call to my home insurance company to get a claim started and the WRS man began his work. He had to cut out the carpeting and underlayment, as well as some of the pergo flooring into the hallway. He placed a couple of huge machines in my master bedroom, one is a $6,000 dollar de-humidifier and the other is a huge air purifier. Before he left for the evening he sprayed some anti-microbial around on all of the places where he had removed the carpet and pergo. Now to wait for the claims adjuster to give me a ring...Monday the WRS will return to get some more moisture readings with his machine, and then the demolition man has to come to remove the sheetrock/walls where the water seeped up. Here are a few of the pictures I took and plan to provide to the insurance company. Note to self....have pipes snaked by plumber BEFORE moving into new house! Whew! I am tired, off to bed.
