FAQ

1. What is Water Damage Restoration?

Water damage cleanup, also called water damage restoration, is the process of removing water from your home and fixing anything the water ruined. This includes drying floors, walls, and furniture, cleaning everything, and fixing any damage caused by things like burst pipes, leaky roofs, or floods.

2. How long does it take to dry out a house after water damage?

Drying your home after water damage can take anywhere from 1 to 5 days. It depends on how bad the damage is, how much water got in, and what areas were affected. Using professional fans and dehumidifiers speeds up the process and helps stop mold from growing, which can happen in just 24–48 hours.

3. What should I do after a flood, or sewage or water leak?

If your home has water damage, here’s what to do right away:

• Stay safe—turn off electricity if water is near outlets.
• Stop the water—if possible, turn off the water source.
• Take pictures for your insurance.
• Call a professional water damage company.
• Contact your home insurance provider.

Acting fast helps reduce damage and makes the restoration process smoother.

4. Will my homeowner’s insurance cover water damage?

Most home insurance policies will pay for water damage if it happens suddenly—like a pipe bursting or an appliance leaking. But if the damage happens slowly over time, or from outside flooding, it might not be covered. For flood damage, you’ll need separate flood insurance.

5. How can I stop water damage from happening?

You can avoid costly water damage by doing regular maintenance:

• Check pipes and appliances for leaks
• Clean out gutters and downspouts
• Use water sensors near your washer, water heater, or basement
• Seal windows and doors
• Make sure your yard drains water away from the house
