Getting Started
If you’re dealing with residential water damage, here’s a helpful video on important first steps to take and what to expect when working with our water damage restoration experts.
What Is Water Damage Cleanup?
Water damage restoration is the process of removing excess water, drying affected areas, salvaging items, and repairing structural issues to restore your home to its original condition. How much does water damage cleanup cost? It depends on several factors, including the scope of restoration work needed and your particular insurance policy. To help streamline the claims process, our residential restorers can work directly with your provider.
Unlike minor leaks or spills, full-scale water damage requires specialized knowledge and advanced equipment. Plumbing systems, HVAC units, and even electrical wiring can all be compromised; that’s why our experts utilize state-of-the-art equipment to evaluate flooring, uncover structural damage, reveal hidden pockets of moisture, and assess insulation. If water damage has occurred, rest assured our comprehensive approach will find it and fix it, fast.

We’re not just any water damage restoration company–we’re certified professionals who adhere to the highest industry standards. Thanks to our Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) and decades of experience, you can rest easy knowing our technicians are experts in water extraction techniques, structural drying, and microbial remediation.

How to Prevent Future Water Damage
While some issues can’t be prevented, such as flooding from a storm, others can. Here are a few water damage prevention tips that could help you identify an issue before it becomes a repair.
- Regularly inspect plumbing, pipes, and hoses
- Maintain your roof and gutters
- If you have a basement, consider installing a sump pump
- Monitor water usage, as a spike could indicate potential leaks
- Reinforce seals around windows and doors

Our Thorough Water Damage Restoration Process
To ensure every need is addressed, we take a tailored, full-service approach to residential water damage.
Assessment
We’ll identify the source of the water damage and take immediate action to contain the problem. Using advanced thermal imaging technology, we’ll assess the extent of infiltration, evaluating ceilings, walls, flooring, and fixtures.
Plan of Action
After developing a restoration strategy, we’ll review the process, equipment, and techniques we’ll utilize to eliminate all water from your home.
Water Extraction
Using high-powered pumps, extraction units, and vacuums, we’ll remove standing water. From there, our certified water restoration experts will deploy dehumidifiers, air movers, and negative air fans to completely dry all affected areas.
Salvaging Efforts
Whatever we can save, we will. Items that cannot be salvaged will be removed, packed, and properly disposed of.
Cleaning
With help from professional-grade antimicrobial treatments, we’ll eradicate bacteria and prevent mold growth. At this time, we’ll also sanitize any salvaged materials.
Repairing
Our team will perform necessary repairs, whether that means a quick carpet replacement or large reconstruction projects. We won’t rest until your home is back to its original condition.
