How fast does water damage need to be addressed?

As fast as possible. Water wicks into drywall and flooring within hours, and mold can begin to grow within 24 to 48 hours. Calling right away is the single biggest factor in keeping repair costs down.

Does homeowners insurance cover water damage?

Most policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, like a burst pipe or appliance failure. Flooding from rising water is usually covered by a separate flood policy. We document everything and can communicate with your adjuster directly.

How long does it take to dry out a home?

Most structures dry in three to five days, depending on the materials involved and how long the water sat. We monitor progress daily and don’t pull equipment until readings confirm the structure is dry.
