FAQ

  • How quickly should I respond to water damage?

    Immediately. Water spreads fast and can soak into walls, floors, and belongings within minutes. The longer it sits, the more damage and potential for mold growth.

  • What should I do first when I notice water damage?

    Shut off the water source (if possible), turn off electricity in affected areas, then call us right away. The sooner we start, the less damage you’ll face.

  • Can I clean up water damage myself?

    Small spills can often be handled with mops and fans, but significant leaks, flooding, or sewage backup require professional drying equipment and sanitation to prevent mold and structural issues.

  • Will my homeowner’s insurance cover water damage?

    Most policies cover sudden, accidental events (like a burst pipe), but not gradual leaks or flooding. We can help you work with your insurance company.

  • How long does the restoration process take?

    Drying usually takes 3–7 days. Repairs may take a little longer depending on the damage.

  • How do I know if I have mold?

    Common signs include musty odors, visible spots on walls or ceilings, or allergy-like symptoms.


  • Is mold dangerous?

    Yes. Mold can trigger allergies, asthma, and other health issues, especially for kids, seniors, or anyone with breathing problems.

  • How can I stop mold from growing after water damage?

    Quick drying is key. Mold can start within 24–48 hours, so call us as soon as possible.
