Emergency Call-Out: Sprinkler System Failure Floods Basement in High-Rise Building

At Iconic Group Services, we specialize in rapid response to critical building maintenance emergencies. Recently, we were called out after hours to a high-rise building where a broken 3-inch elbow joint on the sprinkler system caused significant flooding in the basement.
