Job completed for Darren McConnell

Completion date: February 15, 2026

Location: Anaconda, MT

Why did the customer contact us?

The customer experienced significant water damage in their kitchen and crawlspace due to a faulty refrigerator filter. This led to multiple layers of flooring (LVP, particle board, hardwood) and the underlying subfloor becoming saturated, weak, and susceptible to microbial growth, creating unsafe conditions and a musky odor. Trapped moisture under corner cabinets further exacerbated the issue.

Solutions provided:

Dayspring Restoration provided comprehensive water mitigation services for the kitchen and crawlspace. This involved an initial loss assessment, setting up containment, and extensive demolition of six layers of flooring (LVP, particle board, and multiple hardwood layers) and built-in kitchen cabinets. Our team performed moisture monitoring and drying using specialized equipment like air movers and dehumidifiers. We applied antimicrobial agents to the subfloor, changed equipment filters, and covered holes in the weak subfloor with plywood to ensure safety. Communication was maintained with both the client and the insurance adjuster, facilitating scope changes, and the project concluded with final monitoring, equipment removal, and cleanup.

Our Customer Reviews

“Following a devastating fire, Dayspring’s ability to pull resources from all over the state within hours was incredible. They had over 50 workers onsite within 2-3 hours! We would never have been able to have our students back in school within 2 days were it not for the quick response and the quality of work provided by them. Their quality of work was excellent!

“Over the past eighteen years I have worked with Dayspring on a daily basis. I have worked with them professionally and have had them work for me personally. In both instances I have found them to be professional, courteous, and helpful.
