Older Homes, Older Pipes
Many Wayne County homes were built before modern insulation, with plumbing in outside walls, crawl spaces and unheated porches. During a hard freeze those pipes split, and the leak shows up when the ice thaws.
Select Restoration responds 24/7 across Wayne County. We remove the water, open wet walls and ceilings where needed, dry the structure with commercial equipment and daily moisture readings, and rebuild what had to come out.
Plaster walls, common in older Detroit and Grosse Pointe homes, dry differently than drywall. Our technicians measure moisture inside the wall, not just on the surface.
