Northern Cal cleanup continues two weeks after record freeze

December 26, 2009

Emergency crews are still hustling giant fans and bulky dehumidifiers into homes waterlogged by burst pipes two weeks after a record freeze frosted far Northern California.

And a few residents are miffed by the bags of soaked insulation, drywall and other debris hauled out of water-damaged homes and left behind by crews rushing off to their next job.

One of the biggest bag piles sits on a gravel yard and leans against a stuccoed wing of the Smoke Tree Apartments in Redding, where Servpro crews ripped out ceilings, walls and carpet to allow buildings to dry before potentially dangerous mold developed. From Redding.com.
