Hotels have incredible plumbing and piping systems that must be maintained. These systems have to be very reliable to service guests 24/7. Hotel maintenance have a huge task repairing rusty pipes and maintaining the overall system in order to insure it is running efficiently. Most new hotels don't have the headache of maintaining these intricate systems because the systems have just been installed by engineers.

However, situations and mistakes happen that even the most competent engineers can't avoid. Recently SERVPRO of Floyd County was dispatched to a new hotel in downtown Louisville that had been open for less than a year. The engineers of the hotel had called in regards to a pipe on the second floor that has busted open at a glued joint. They had determined that a bad batch of plumbers glue had been used and compromised the strength of the bond.

Due to the massive amount of pressure used to force water to the higher floors the joint failed. The aftermath of the pipe being compromised left the hotel with over 2 inches of water on the first and second floors. SERVPRO's crews spent hours extracting water and setting up drying equipment to make sure the proper drying procedures were taking place.
