Why Washington Township homeowners choose us for water mitigation
We're on site in about an hour
Whatever the hour, a person takes your call, and our crew usually arrives about an hour later. Until then, keep the heat or air conditioning at its usual setting unless water reached the unit, since a shut-up house lets humidity climb.
A free inspection of the damage
Our free inspection, done by an IICRC Certified Firm, maps where the water stopped as well as where it went. Knowing the dry edge keeps equipment and removal out of rooms that don't need them, so the job and the bill stay no larger than the damage.
We work directly with your insurance company
Whoever insures your home, we deal with that company for you. If the claim is still open when the drying ends, we keep the adjuster updated through reconstruction, so the file doesn't go quiet between the dry-out and the rebuild.
We help you get the most from your claim
If you aren't sure something counts as damage, like a door that now sticks or a stained cabinet side, point it out anyway and let the adjuster decide. We push hard on every item, but the insurer decides the final amount.
Financing if you need it
Many policies exclude water that leaked a little at a time for weeks, such as a seeping shower pan or a toilet seal, even when the damage behind it is real. Financing is available for that kind of gap, or for your deductible, so you can pay over time.

How our water damage cleanup works in Washington Township
Step 1. You call our office
Day or night, our emergency response line will dispatch a crew as soon as you call. Some Washington Township homes still draw water from a private well, and on a well, turning off the pump's breaker and closing the main valve stops the flow to a burst pipe.
Step 2. We find where the water went
A leak around a window often runs down inside the wall and soaks the framing at the bottom before any stain shows on the drywall or flooring. Since we started in construction, we check below every window near the damage and photograph each spot for the assessment.
Step 3. We take the water out
Water extraction comes first, then we sort what can be dried from what can't. Solid wood trim and many cabinets dry well, but particleboard in vanities and cabinet bottoms swells and stays swollen, so those parts usually come out and get replaced in the rebuild.
Step 4. We dry it out
Drying runs on air movers and dehumidifiers, decontaminated before they enter your home. In humid summer weather the dehumidifiers carry most of the load, while dry heated winter air helps; a technician reads the moisture meter daily, and most jobs finish in two to four days.
Step 5. We handle the insurance paperwork
Once the work wraps up, our invoice and documentation go out to both you and your insurer within a few business days, with a request for direct payment. If the insurer denies part of the claim, that file helps you ask it to take another look.

Wonderful experience during such a stressful time. They came out immediately, the employees were extremely polite and respectful, and kept me updated every step of the way. They also helped guide me through the insurance claims process which seemed overwhelming at first. I would definitely recommend.

Washington Township questions about basement flooding
Questions we get from our customers' and our answers.
What tends to cause water damage in Washington Township homes?
Mostly failures inside the house: a burst pipe, a worn-out water heater, a leaking washer hose or other appliance, an overflowing toilet, or a roof leak. Spring thaws and summer storms can also push water intrusion through a basement wall, and insurers often treat that flooding apart from a burst line, so the cause is the first thing we note.
Do you take on commercial water damage in Washington Township?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency service covers offices, shops and rental properties as well as homes. The steps don't change: we trace the water, remove it, set drying equipment and handle the building's insurance company directly, and flood cleanup works the same way.
Will your inspection of my Washington Township home file a claim or obligate me?
No. Looking at the damage reports nothing to your insurer, and you're free to hire whoever you want. The policyholder, meaning you, is the only one who can open an insurance claim, and the contractor is your pick even when the insurer has its own suggestions. Waiting on an adjuster before mitigation lets standing water sink deeper, so get it started.
What does water damage restoration in Washington Township cost?
Until we've inspected, any price would be made up: the restoration process tends to reveal more damage as soaked materials are removed. Our time-and-materials billing follows the IICRC S500 standard, each line priced in Xactimate, and both you and your insurance company get it. Reconstruction after drying is something we do too, so one company sees it through.
Should we move out of our Washington Township home while it dries?
Usually not, when a supply line leaked clean water. The answer changes with sewage, floodwater from outdoors or mold growth you can see, where mold remediation is a separate job, and with anyone at home who has asthma. If your house is on septic and water rose from a drain, skip laundry and long showers until the system is checked. We'll give you our view after water extraction.
