Quick to respond, SERVPRO of Spencer and Iowa Great Lakes was able to save The Okoboji Commons Hotel.

Earlier this year The Okoboji Commons Hotel suffered a devastating water-loss when a main water break occurred. 

The hotel was getting ready to close for the season when water infiltrated their lower laundry area and their executive suite. Okoboji Commons Hotel Co-Owner Kristi Leigh acted quickly and called SERVPRO of Spencer and Iowa Great Lakes. 

The crew at SERVPRO worked quickly to assess the damage and quickly dry the area. It was determined at that time that some portions of the ceiling and much of the drywall near the floor was affected by the water and would need to be removed and replaced. 

To quickly dry the area, the team used a multi-disciplined approach. For the hard surface and carpeted flooring the crew used professional-grade dehumidifiers and water extraction units. They also placed air movers to help dry the area and move the humidity outdoors. Also important to the drying process was applying SERVPRO's exclusive plant-based anti-microbial agent.

By working quickly to extract and move the water the crew was able to avoid mold growth and further damage to the over 14,000 square feet of the hotel which was affected. Reconstruction happened quickly and the crew was able to stay on time to meet the hotel's deadlines to make sure that they were ready for business prior to their opening season.
