Water damage should be addressed immediately. Within minutes, water can spread throughout your property, saturating everything in its path. Within 24 hours, drywall begins to swell and break down, metal surfaces begin to tarnish, and furniture begins to warp and mold can begin to grow. The longer you wait, the more extensive and expensive the damage becomes.

Most homeowners insurance policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, such as from burst pipes or appliance malfunctions. However, damage from flooding typically requires separate flood insurance. Our team works directly with all major insurance companies and can help guide you through the claims process, providing detailed documentation and evidence to support your claim.

The timeline for water damage restoration depends on the extent of the damage and the affected materials. Water extraction and initial drying typically takes 3-5 days. Complete restoration, including repairs and reconstruction, can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks. Our technicians use moisture meters to ensure your property is completely dry before finishing the restoration process.

If it's safe to do so: turn off the water source, shut off electricity to affected areas, remove valuable items from wet areas, mop or blot excess water, and remove area rugs from wet carpeting. Do not use household vacuum cleaners to remove water, do not use electrical appliances while standing on wet floors, and stay out of rooms where ceilings are sagging from water retention.
