Water Damage Restoration in Homer, MI | Cat Rec | Slab Leaks & Foundation Seepage

Slab leaks are often caused by shifting soil, pipe corrosion, or poor foundation drainage—common issues in older Homer homes. When a slab leak occurs, water can damage flooring, wet insulation, and even weaken the foundation. Cat Rec identifies the leak source first, then extracts standing water, removes damaged materials, and uses industrial drying equipment to fully dry the affected area before restoration.

Foundation seepage is a frequent challenge for Homer homeowners, especially near low-lying areas like the Kalamazoo River floodplain. Cat Rec begins by stopping the water source if possible, then extracts all standing water with powerful pumps. We remove wet insulation and drywall, sanitize the area to prevent mold, and use high-velocity air movers and dehumidifiers to fully dry the space before any reconstruction begins.

Garage water intrusion often leaves wet insulation, a musty smell, or visible water stains on walls. If insulation gets soaked, it loses its R-value and can harbor mold. Cat Rec will cut out and dispose of wet insulation, dry the cavity thoroughly, and install new, code-compliant insulation. We also inspect for hidden moisture behind walls to ensure no secondary damage is missed.
