(901) 460-0232Southwind Cases and How Your Restoration Company Responds
You can check your Southwind loss against these 3 cases.
| The situation | What your restoration company does |
|---|---|
| A wall on MLGW water stays wet after the shutoff | Reads the wall with a moisture meter and plans water extraction and drying around a stated drying goal. |
| Electrical service equipment at a house gets wet | Plans around MLGW's rule that a licensed electrician repairs it and Code Enforcement inspects it before power returns. |
| A Southwind business takes water | Handles the space as commercial water damage, with records kept apart from any home loss. |
Why a Southwind Permit Office Depends on the Street, Not the Mail
A Southwind permit office depends on the street, because 38125 is a mailing ZIP and about 14% of that ZIP lies in Memphis. City and county limits decide the office, and MLGW says permits depend on your location.
An address inside Collierville limits, about 5% of the ZIP, uses Collierville code enforcement at (901) 457-2310. Ask that office which repairs need a permit, including any water damaged drywall repair.
Piperton sits in Fayette County and buys its water from Collierville, so water damage cleanup in Piperton involves no MLGW water. Cordova has larger Memphis land shares than this ZIP, so water damage cleanup in Cordova falls inside the city more frequently.
Ask a restoration company serving Southwind which office it expects for your street address.
(901) 460-0232Who Stops the Water When a Pipe Bursts in Southwind?
MLGW stops the water when a pipe bursts on its system in Southwind, according to its burst pipe page. Its water plan covers Memphis and unincorporated Shelby County, while Collierville owns its own system. Your restoration company handles burst pipe water damage cleanup after that shutoff, so ask what it extracts first.
Which Policy Applies When Nonconnah Creek Reaches a Southwind Home?
A separate flood policy is the one to check when Nonconnah Creek reaches a Southwind home. The Insurance Information Institute says standard homeowners and renters policies exclude flood damage. Your restoration company treats rising creek water as Category 3 under the IICRC S500 standard, so ask what it documents.
