Any time moisture finds its way into your property, you should always call a water damage company to assess the situation. While you might think there’s only a small amount of water, and something you can easily tackle, usually there is hidden moisture that will cause you big problems down the road. Don’t delay in calling for a professional opinion. Moisture can weaken the strength of your home’s support structure and even cause black mold damage.

From labor to materials to equipment used, the rates are standard and insure you are not getting an inflated price or a price tag that your insurance company won’t pay. So when we provide a free restoration estimate, it can be trusted!
Here’s a video explaining how it works…

The process for cleaning up flooding damage will vary depending on the factors present. There’s a variety of different systems and pieces of equipment specifically designed for a range of scenarios. So while the water damage service is unique on every project, the basics of water mitigation are the same. Contain the loss, extract standing water, apply anti-microbials and disinfectants, dry out the structure, and replace any surfaces that were removed.
Here’s a quick video showing you what that looks like:
Who do I call first?
You should always call a San Bernardino water damage company first. That’s not a marketing ploy, that’s simply your best option. You may be inclined to call your insurer and wait for a claim, but please trust us when we say that is not the first step in the process. The first step is to always stop the water damage as quickly as possible and begin the drying process before mold grows.
Will I get black mold damage?
If you wait more than 48 hours after the flooding has occurred, the answer is most likely ‘Yes’. Mold grows quickly once moisture is introduced to your walls, floors or other surfaces of your home mold spores can feed on. It’s just one of the more serious reasons your first call should be immediately to a certified water mitigation contractor!
Will my insurance even cover my loss?
Standard insurance policies typically cover water damage from within the home’s structure. In other words, things that happen within the home that cause damage. Think of things like a dish washer overflowing, a washing machine hose coming un-attached, or even a sink or bath tub being left on and spilling out into the home.
What isn’t typically covered is ground water, or any water that originates outside of your property but makes its way in and causes wetness or damage.
Even if the water damage was caused by something within your home malfunctioning, some adjusters may deny your claim in the belief that routine maintenance would have prevented the loss from happening (for instance, if they show up and you have a corroded water heater that clearly was way past its shelf life).
How long does the process itself take?
When you’re talking about water damage restoration, there are really 2 phases to the work:
Phase 1. Water Mitigation
Phase 2. Build-back (or Reconstruction)
In phase 1, the goal is to dry out the structure as quickly as possible so that mold doesn’t grow and so that your property’s structure does not become at risk of collapsing in areas effected by water damage. That process can be anywhere between 2 days to over 1 week depending on the dry rates of the surfaces affected and the amount of moisture in the property.
In phase 2, any things that needed to be torn out are replaced. That process can sometimes take over a week, again depending on the extent of the damages.
