Water Out Cincinnati saves the day at country club wedding reception
Jack Kilgore, Water Restoration Manager from Water Out Cincinnati / Widmers (OH), sent in a great story last week about a job they completed using the Water Out® trailer for climate control. Jack tells the story; “We were called in by a wedding planner at a local country club to assess a humidity and condensation problem inside a tent over an outdoor, heated pool. We brought in the Water Out® trailer for climate control so the condensation problem wouldn’t occur another night. The tent’s size was 166’ x 56’ with parts of the pool covered and a glass dance floor over portions of the pool.
The trailer ran part-time for two days. Many people involved themselves on how this job should be handled, we all know how people in our industry think they know our jobs better than ourselves, but I finally got the chance to speak with the father paying for the wedding reception and he liked what I was telling him over everyone else. The first night without the climate control it was literally raining inside the tent, but the next two nights with the climate control no trouble was encountered and everyone walked away very happy. It was very nice for this to go so well for us as the client is a respected multi-business owner in the city.”
Fantastic work, Jack, and a very unique story, keep up the great work.

Water Out Cincinnati dries a concrete floor at a Florida University

Water Out Cincinnati / Widmer’s (OH) handled a loss in Florida recently when they received a call from a University and construction company regarding a situation they were presented with. “The moisture content level was too high in the concrete sub-floor on the lower level in a new building. The carpet installers refused to lay the carpet until the vapor emissions moisture content level was down around 5.0%. At the time of the last test the floor was around 8.8% and the construction company had been running conventional equipment for about three weeks. Once we spoke with all parties involved, the Water Out® division came up with a plan and put it into effect.
The scope of work was to construct a tent in the entire affected area to eliminate some of the cubic footage of air to treat. This included tenting an area consisting of about 18 offices, hallways and laboratories. It was a challenging project, but we conquered every problem. In the end we lowered the content level to 5.2% and they proceeded with the carpet installation. All parties walked away happy, and the University wants to sit down and talk with us about doing emergency services for them in the future.”
Excellent work to everyone at Water Out Cincinnati!

Widmers Cleaners / Water Out of Cincinnati instructs Ohio insurance adjusters and agents

Joni Mertz of Widmers Cleaners / Water Out Cincinnati sent in some great updates this week from Ohio.
“Widmers presented their second annual Water Damage Restoration Course featuring Jeff Bishop on Tuesday, May 17, 2005. Over 100 insurance adjusters and agents attended this annual event.
At this year’s event we featured our Water Out® trailer, Steve Toohey of Mr. Rapid / Water Out of Canton brought his Water Out® trailer, and Richard and Nick Zeis from Quick Dry Inc. / Water Out of Tiffin were also on hand. In addition, Steve brought his thermal imaging camera and a demonstration was given using the camera. The adjusters / agents left with a better understanding of the various equipment used for drying as well as what equipment dries in the least amount of time.

Water Out Cincinnati was also called in to assist a local restoration company franchisee in the drying of a 100 year-old building in Barboursville, Kentucky. The restoration company had heard about Water Out® and called when they were having trouble drying the sub-floor. The sub-floor on the second level had been built up about eight inches with carpet and linoleum within the layers and a plank floor on top. With the Water Out® trailer the dry down was completed in 2 1/2 days.”
Excellent work Joni, Jim Olmstead and the entire Widmers / Water Out of Cincinnati team.

Joni Mertz of Widmer’s Cleaners, our Cincinnati, Ohio, Water Out® members, sent in a story this month as well from a residential project that Jim Olmstead and the Widmer’s team had dried. “The owner and his family were away on vacation and came home to find that the water heater on the second floor had caused a vacationer’s return nightmare. Water on three floors and the house consisted of plaster walls with acoustic tiles and drywall overtop plaster. Minimal tear out was done and the place was dry in five days thanks to Water Out®.”

Fantastic job, Joni and Jim.
