The good news- Brian & Nina are fine. The tornados that touched down were slightly southeast of them. More fortunately, there have not been any reported damage or people hurt by the tornados.
The bad news? Because of the torrential rain fall, coupled with hail and strong wind, Brian & Nina's cute finished basement has become a soppy, wet, mess. What better to show this change than with some before and after pictures?
Before, when our basement was a fun place to watch movies and play games:
And after, our basement now has turned into a gaping money hole to fix (because, lucky for Brian & Nina, their home owners insurance doesn't cover a cent of the damage):
So, yea. Brian & Nina now have their work cut out for them. First, next weekend, they have to cement the side of the house the seeping water is coming from. Then they get to shop around for the cheapest carpet installation they can find. Ahhhh...home ownership in Nebraska.
That's all for now. Brian & Nina have to check how much more water has entered the basement.
Until next time...
Maybe instead of new carpet and pad, you should look at vinyl tiles that you can install yourselves and just mop up. So sorry this happened.
ReplyDeleteHoney, thank gosh you guys are ok, that's all I can think.
ReplyDeleteYou will get your basement dried out, and before you know it all will be back to normal.
