Tri-State residents are still cleaning up from Friday's storm which left thousands, including KHQA without power.

City crews spent the day collecting debris from hundreds of homes today.

But for one Tri-State business with some of the worst damage, it's business as usual.

Quincy Plumbing and Heating Distributors located at 3rd and Maine was back open as usual to customers Saturday, even though it's east facade wall collapsed during the storm.

Owner Ted Siebers says luckily very little of his inventory was damaged during the storm.

He plans to fix the façade of the building, but the wall isn't affecting his inventory or customer service.

Siebers says the discovery of this collapse came as a shock to everyone that day.

Ted Siebers said, " When the first window broke we had a few customers with us and we went to thE basement becaUse that seemed like the safest place to be. We came back upstairs and it was business as usual until someone came in and said you need to look in your backyard."

That's when Siebers said he was shocked to see this scene.

Quincy Plumbing and Heating is open its regular hours, Monday through Friday 7a.m. - 6p.m., Saturday 9a.m. - 1p.m.
