Support wall built in Living Room to make sure the roof doesn't cave in!

Client of our sister company - WickRight General Contracting

 

WickRight General Contracting, which is Wet Building Solution's sister company, fixed a wet building in Ukranian Village in 2018. When Bob (Kelly - owner of both companies) walked across this building's roof, he could tell that the trusses were rotten -- they sagged, they crackled, they popped. To be safe, he had the crew build a support wall in the client's living room to make sure the roof didn't collapse.


If your roof make creepy noises of sags when you walk on it -- lock off access to the roof immediately. And give Bob Kelly at Wet Building Solutions a call. We'll help you figure out next steps to keep everyone who lives in the building safe.
