How We Get It Done
Step 1
Damage Assessment
We find the source, stop it if it’s still running and measure how far the water has traveled — including inside walls and under floors.
Step 2
Water Removal
Truck-mounted and portable extractors pull standing water out fast, limiting how much soaks into flooring and drywall.
Step 3
Moisture Control
We remove what can’t be saved — wet padding, swollen baseboards, saturated drywall — and set up containment where needed.
We Work With Your Insurance
We document every loss the way adjusters need it — photos, moisture logs and itemized estimates — and work with your carrier directly.
What Class of Water Damage Do You Have?
Restoration pros classify water damage by how much water is involved and how deeply it has soaked in. The class sets the drying plan.
Class 1
Minimal
A small area, mostly low-absorbency materials like tile or sealed wood. Dries quickly when it’s handled right away.
Class 2
Significant
A whole room is affected. Water has wicked into carpet, pad and up the walls — usually less than two feet.
Class 3
Extensive
Water came from above or spread widely. Ceilings, walls, insulation and subfloor are saturated.
Class 4
Specialty Drying
Water has soaked into dense materials — hardwood, plaster, brick or concrete — that need specialized drying and more time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do right after water damage?
If it’s safe, shut off the water at the main valve and turn off power to affected areas at the breaker — never walk through standing water to reach a panel. Move valuables out of the wet area, photograph everything for your claim, and call a restoration company. The first 24–48 hours matter most for preventing mold.
Is water damage covered by homeowners insurance?
Sudden, accidental damage — like a burst pipe or a failed water heater — is typically covered. Damage from slow leaks or deferred maintenance usually isn’t, and flooding from rising surface water generally requires a separate flood policy. We’ll help you document the loss so your adjuster has what they need.
How long does it take to dry out a house?
Most structural drying takes about three to five days, depending on the materials and how long they were wet. We check moisture readings daily and only pull equipment when materials reach dry standards — not when they just look dry.
Can I just use a shop vac and fans myself?
For a small, clean spill caught right away, maybe. But water wicks into drywall, insulation and subfloors where fans can’t reach, and contaminated water needs protective gear. Professional extraction and dehumidification prevent the hidden moisture that leads to mold and warped floors.
What’s the difference between water mitigation and restoration?
Mitigation stops the damage from getting worse — extraction, removing wet materials and drying. Restoration is the repair work that follows: drywall, flooring, paint and trim. We handle both, so there’s no hand-off between companies.
Can my hardwood floors be saved?
Often, if we get to them quickly. Specialized floor-drying systems can pull moisture out of hardwood, and some cupping settles as the wood dries. Floors that stay cupped, or that were soaked for a long time, may need to be replaced.
