Water Damage Frequently Asked Questions

First, ensure your safety. Turn off electricity in affected areas if it's safe to do so. Stop the water source if possible (turn off main water valve for burst pipes). Move valuables to dry areas. Then call us immediately at 585-301-3606 for emergency response. Do not wait - every minute counts in preventing further damage and mold growth.

Most homeowner's insurance policies cover sudden and accidental water damage (like burst pipes), but may not cover gradual damage or flooding. We work directly with all major insurance companies, document everything thoroughly, and can help you navigate the claims process. We'll provide detailed reports and photos for your insurer.

It depends on the extent of damage. Minor water damage may allow you to stay in unaffected areas. However, major flooding, sewage backups, or extensive damage may require temporary relocation for safety. We'll assess your specific situation and provide honest guidance.

The timeline varies based on the extent of damage, type of water (clean, gray, or black), and affected materials. Minor water damage may take 3-5 days, while severe flooding can take 2-3 weeks. We'll provide a detailed timeline during our initial inspection and keep you updated throughout the process.

Water mitigation is the immediate response to prevent further damage - extracting water, drying, and stabilizing the property. Water restoration is the complete process of returning your property to pre-loss condition, including repairs, rebuilding, and final touches. We handle both phases seamlessly.

Speed is critical. Mold can start growing within 24-48 hours of water exposure. We respond within 60 minutes, quickly extract water, and use industrial dehumidifiers and air movers to thoroughly dry all materials. We also monitor moisture levels with professional meters and apply antimicrobial treatments when necessary.
