The Hayworth: Rapid Response & High-Impact Restoration
A Multi-Faceted Water Damage Crisis
In 2024, The Hayworth, a Class A multifamily property located in the prestigious Tanglewood neighborhood in Houston, TX, faced a series of water damage crises that affected 52 units, both vacant and occupied. The challenges were significant:
Hurricane Beryl – Water intrusion from severe weather
Two major sprinkler failures – Causing massive flooding
Tenant-related water incident – Spreading damage to multiple floors
With separate insurance policies for each event and high resident expectations, the property management team needed a trusted, solutions-oriented partner to not only stabilize the situation immediately but also deliver a cost-effective, high-quality restoration solution.
Our Response: Immediate Action, Expert Coordination
Framework provided same-day response to each incident, leading the initial:
Site assessment & moisture mapping to document damage
Collaboration with adjusters to streamline claims for separate policies
Provided multiple options for emergency stabilization solutions to prevent further damage
From the moment we were engaged, we took ownership of the solution – not just the repairs. Our team worked closely with The Hayworth’s REIT corporate office, ensuring that the scope of work fit within claim budgets while upholding the high expectations of a Class A luxury property.
Value-Driven Strategy: Reducing Costs While Increasing Quality
Understanding the long-term impact of repeated water incidents, Framework spearheaded an effort to upgrade the property’s flooring – switching from traditional hardwood to luxury vinyl tile (LVT).
This strategic decision:
Reduced future maintenance costs
Safeguarded against water-related flooring damage
Improved long-term durability & resident experience
Beyond flooring, we applied value-engineering principles to source materials and labor at below-market rates, all while ensuring top-tier quality.
Execution: Half the Time, Maximum Efficiency
The project was initially scheduled to take 8 weeks, but Framework delivered it in just 4 weeks—without cutting corners.
Key execution highlights:
52-unit restoration completed 50% faster than projected
Coordinated furniture relocation & storage in occupied units to minimize disruption
Met & exceeded Class A property standards with high-quality finishes
