Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to move everything out during restoration?
In most cases, no. Our team inspects the damaged rooms, decides which items need to be removed for protection, and coordinates any pack-out services for you.
Can I walk through my home while it’s drying?
Please keep foot traffic to a minimum. If you must pass through a wet area, wear sturdy shoes and follow the guidance our technicians provide.
My ceilings are wet. What needs to be done?
We check moisture levels and may open small sections so air can circulate or remove wet insulation. You’ll be updated at every step.
How do you handle sewage contamination?
Sewage backups are serious health hazards. We follow strict safety protocols, disinfect all hard surfaces, and remove porous materials that can’t be sanitized.
What happens when water floods my property, and what are the effects?
Water can blister paint, soak insulation, warp wood, ruin flooring, and damage wiring and electronics. Because we arrive within 60 minutes, we can extract water and dry every surface before those problems grow.
How long does it take to dry a property?
Most homes dry within two to five days, depending on how long the water sat and the materials involved. We record moisture readings daily until everything is back to normal.
What services do you provide?
We specialize in Water Damage Restoration, Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration, Mold Remediation, Contents Cleaning, and Reconstruction Services.
Do you handle insurance claims for clients?
Yes. We work with all major insurance carriers and provide direct billing, guiding you through the paperwork so you can focus on recovery.
Are you licensed, insured, and bonded?
Absolutely. We carry all required licenses and insurance, and our technicians undergo regular IICRC training.
