Basement closet water damage around a utility pipe in Allouez

What happened in Allouez

CCS answered this water emergency in Allouez on April 11, 2025, and took 24 photos that day.

The water was in a finished basement with dark carpet, around a small closet that houses a white PVC utility pipe. The bottom of the closet wall had been opened, and the drywall there showed dark spotting near the floor. A gloved crew member treated the opening with a spray wand.

Moisture readings were taken on the carpet in front of the closet, at the base of the walls, along the wood framing of the closet opening and on the textured ceiling nearby. A wood-paneled access panel and the door trim were photographed, and the closet was documented from several angles. Water around a utility pipe in a basement can come from the pipe itself or from water rising around it, and readings in a ring around the spot show how far it traveled.

Water damage questions, answered

Does CCS Property Services do water damage in Allouez?

Yes. This project was in Allouez, WI 54301, and our crews work throughout Allouez and the surrounding area. Our Green Bay office is about 2 miles away. This is one of 3 water damage projects we've published from Allouez. Phones are answered 24/7 for emergencies.

What should I do in the first hour after a water leak?

Shut off the water at the main valve if you can, and turn off power to any wet area if it's safe to reach the panel. Move valuables and furniture off wet floors, take photos for insurance, and call a restoration company. Don't use a household vacuum on standing water.

How fast can CCS get to my home?

Phones are answered 24/7. In most cases we can have a crew on site within about an hour of your call for active water emergencies in the Green Bay area.

Does homeowners insurance cover water damage in Wisconsin?

Most policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, like a burst pipe or an appliance failure. Damage from long-term leaks or neglect usually isn't covered, and flooding from surface water typically needs separate flood coverage. Sump pump backup is often an add-on endorsement. We document the loss and work directly with your adjuster.

How long does it take to dry out a flooded basement?

Most structures dry in three to five days with professional equipment, depending on how much water there was, what materials got wet and the weather. We check moisture readings daily and only pull equipment when readings confirm it's dry.

Will I get mold after water damage?

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet drywall, wood and carpet. Fast extraction and drying is what prevents it, which is why we treat water damage as an emergency.

Do you handle the repairs too?

Yes. We dry out the structure and then rebuild what was removed, so you deal with one company from the first call to the finished room.

“I reached out to Jamie when my tenant informed me there was a backup in the drain in the basement. It was not a healthy situation and I knew it had to be taken care of quickly.”

“Writing this for my mom who lives in Denmark, WI. “On Tuesday, April 14 my husband and I baled out our flooded basement for 3 hours carrying 5 gallon pails up the basement steps. I looked up Water Damage Restoration and called CCS Property Service LLC.”

“My husband and I noticed mold on a couple of different spots on a baseboard and outlet plugs that were below some windows. We remembered having a great experience from a few years back with Mike Wotruba at CCS about an issue we had going on in our basement, so we gave him a call right away.”

Sarah R. · Google review · 2026

“We recently had our roof done and I wanted a second pair of eyes to ensure no mold was present due to having leaks for some time. Mike Wotruba showed up thankfully after roofing rescheduled twice and he was so accommodating. Super helpful with questions and went above and beyond for me.”
