The Water Damage Restoration Process
Our Process
Water damage is mystifying. Most people are not prepared for water damage. It isn't something people often think about until they're forced to think about it. And so, if at some point aging infrastructure, storm damage, or some previously faulty appliance gives way and then wreaks havoc at your property, what's next?
Water damage left unaddressed can cause further damage and gives opportunity for the development of mold.
The good news is, you have a trusted neighbor and friend who can help. Our team has the experience, expertise and equipment to properly restore your property. And, our proven approach to water removal and cleanup will have your property back to new — and done right.
Below, our process is broken-down into steps to help you visualize the water damage restoration process.

Every water damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. You can click on any of the steps below to learn more about that process.
Step 1 - Emergency Contact
The restoration process begins when you call us. Our representative will guide you through the crisis and may ask several questions to help us better understand the equipment and resources.
Step 2 - Inspection and Water Damage Assessment
We determine the scope of your water damage at this stage. We inspect and test to determine the extent of damage and how far the moisture has traveled to ensure proper and complete restoration.
Step 3 - Water Removal / Water Extraction
The water removal process begins almost immediately and removes the majority of the water. We use powerful pumps and vacuum units to quickly remove hundreds or thousands of gallons from your property, which helps prevent secondary water damage and mold growth.
Step 4 - Drying and Dehumidification
We use specialized equipment to remove the remaining water that is harder to access. Our Professionals will use room measurements, temperature, and relative humidity to determine the optimal number of air movers and dehumidifiers needed to dry your home or business.
Step 5 - Cleaning and Sanitizing
We clean all of the restorable items and structures damaged by the water. We are adept at cleaning contents using a number of techniques. Our professionals are trained to provide sanitizing treatments and to remove odors and deodorize your property.
Step 6 - Restoration
Restoration is the process of restoring your home or business to its pre-water damage condition. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall and installing new carpet, or may entail major repairs, such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in a home or business.
