🔧 The Challenge
A 240-unit multifamily community experienced a catastrophic main water line failure at 6 AM on a Saturday, flooding the ground floor of three buildings and cutting water to the entire property. The property manager could not reach their usual plumber, and tenants were reporting water entering their units.
💡 Our Solution
Auxi's 24/7 emergency dispatch mobilized a licensed plumbing contractor within 30 minutes. The crew arrived on-site within 90 minutes with water extraction equipment. The broken main was isolated and repaired within 4 hours, restoring water to all buildings. Water extraction and drying equipment were deployed in affected units to prevent mold. A full pipe inspection was conducted the following week to identify and replace aging sections.
✅ The Outcome
Water was restored to all 240 units within 6 hours. Zero units required mold remediation due to rapid drying. Three additional weak pipe sections were identified and replaced proactively. The property avoided an estimated $180,000 in water damage and mold remediation costs.
