+ What should I do first when my basement floods?
Shut off the main water valve if a pipe is the cause (it is usually near the front wall where the line enters the basement). Stay out of standing water that could reach outlets or the panel, switch off power only if the panel is dry and safe to reach, and move valuables upstairs. Then call us on (226) 639-7972.
+ How long does structural drying take, and what changes it?
Drywall and framing often dry in several days, while hardwood, plaster and concrete take longer. How much water there was, how long it sat, the humidity in the house and how much material is wet all change the timeline. We log moisture readings and stop only when materials reach dry standard.
+ Does wet drywall have to come out?
Not always. Drywall hit by clean water and dealt with quickly can sometimes be dried in place, which we confirm with readings. If it has been wet for days, has soaked insulation behind it, or is swollen and crumbling, it is cut out, usually at 2 or 4 feet.
+ What affects the cost of water damage repair?
The main factors are how much water there is and what kind, how many square feet are wet, which materials soaked, how long it sat, how easy the area is to reach, how many days of equipment are needed, and whether drywall or flooring has to be removed. We explain the price on site before work starts.
