Frequently Asked Questions

Act quickly to prevent further damage and mold growth. Follow these steps:

  1. Stop the water source – Turn off the main water supply if the damage is caused by plumbing.
  2. Document the damage – Take photos and videos for insurance claims.
  3. Remove standing water – Use mops, towels, or wet vacuums to prevent saturation.
  4. Increase ventilation – Open windows and use fans or dehumidifiers to dry out affected areas.

Call a professional water damage restoration service – Experts checks structural damage, remove moisture, and prevent mold growth.

Mold can begin growing within 24 to 48 hours in damp conditions, spreading rapidly if left untreated. Porous materials like drywall, carpets, and insulation are especially vulnerable. Professional restoration services use specialized drying equipment and antimicrobial treatments to prevent mold infestations.

The cost depends on the extent of damage, affected areas, and restoration needs:

  • Minor water damage (localized leaks): $500 – $1,500.
  • Moderate damage (multiple rooms, drywall replacement): $2,000 – $5,000.
  • Severe damage (structural repairs, mold removal): $7,000 – $20,000+.

Insurance coverage may help offset costs, depending on the cause of the damage.

  • Water mitigation focuses on immediate measures to stop further damage, such as removing standing water, drying out the area, and preventing mold.
  • Water damage restoration involves repairing and restoring the affected property, including structural repairs, mold remediation, and the replacement of damaged materials.

Mitigation happens first, while restoration is the final step in returning the property to pre-damaged condition.

Coverage depends on the cause of the water damage:

  • Covered: Sudden incidents like burst pipes, appliance malfunctions, or roof leaks (if properly maintained).
  • Not Covered: Gradual damage from neglect, poor maintenance, or flood-related incidents (unless you have separate flood insurance).

It’s best to review your policy and contact your insurance provider to understand your coverage and file a timely claim.
