Water damage can happen at any time and due to a variety of reasons. Many reasons for water damage that we commonly see include:
Aside from these problems, you may also find water damage caused by incorrectly installed downspouts, sump pump failure in basements, neglected gutters, and holes in your roof. Water damage can also occur as a secondary effect of fire damage because the water used to douse the flames can cause additional damage to your property.
Recent Water Mitigation Reviews
I could not be more pleased with Cameron, Dusty, Steve, and Eric's work on mold remediation at my residence. I didn't chose them the insurance company did... and I am so glad they did. Cameron has kept me up to speed on everything they planned to do and a status report on the progress. Dusty, Steve, and Eric are caring professionals who handled my home and property as if it were their own. Add to this my four cats and the efforts everyone used to insure they were safe and didn't get out. Thanks guys for a job well done. While I hope I never need your services again I would highly recommend you guys and wouldn't hesitate to contact you again if I did need your help.

We had a water heater leak in our home that required some extensive drying and moisture mitigation, and I'm thankful that Cameron, Steve and Dusty were so responsive! When I called I felt as though I was their only customer and they were always readily available. They picked up the phone every single time I called their numbers, no matter time or day. It's a stressful situation to go through and I always felt these guys walked me through everything and explain the process. I was happy I was in their hands through the process and can't thank them enough. Highly recommend.

I had a water pipe burst in my home at 10pm in my basement. I called American Restoration and Jose gave me a time frame of how soon they could be there with the team. 1 hour later Jose and John showed up and started water extraction and demo. I was very please with their professionalism and the quality of work performed. I would defiantly use them again. I just wish my insurance was as fast as them. Thank you

Restoration Process for Water Damage
When you need to have your home or office repaired for water damage, American Restoration Disaster Specialists has a tried and tested process that we follow for each and every emergency restoration job. This process helps to ensure that we address all the issues that emerge when water damage occurs. The steps we follow in this process include:
Step 1: Immediate Communication and Scheduling – when you call our line at 855-432-2728, our service representatives will determine the severity of your water damage problem. We will ask you specific questions about your situation and with the information you supply, our team will dispatch an emergency response crew to help immediately address the issue.
Step 2: Water Damage Assessment and Inspection – when our team arrives at the address you provide for the water damage restoration work, they will assess the extent of the damage and the cause. Initial steps that will be taken at this stage include turning off the water main, checking the level of contamination of the water, and determining the severity of the damage. Power may also be turned off at this point to ensure that no one gets electrocuted during the initial inspection.
Step 3: Water Extraction – at this point, any standing water in the area that is to be worked on will be removed. This is done with equipment that includes industrial-grade wet/dry vacuums and submersible pumps. Apart from the removal of water, items that are submerged in the water are removed, packed out, and moved out to prevent further water damage and the spread of bacteria. To ensure that all traces of moisture is removed from the affected area, moisture detectors and other similar tools will be used.
Step 4: Drying and Dehumidification – to further ensure that no trace of moisture is left in the area, the use of drying equipment such as dehumidifiers and industrial-grade fans are used. The entire property is aired out as well to ensure that no hidden moisture in cracks, crevices, walls, ceilings, and under the floor is left behind. Continuous tracking of the humidity levels in the space is done to make sure that everything is thoroughly dried out.
Step 5: Cleaning and Deodorizing – this is the stage where the area is cleaned of all debris and dirt that may need to be scrubbed off. Dried-up mud, dirt, and other residue left in the area are cleared out at this point. The area is also deodorized and disinfected to ensure that no bacteria and harmful contaminants are left behiind. The work that is done here can include the use of fogging equipment, odor removers, sanitizers, air scrubbers, and anti-microbial agents.
Step 6: Restoration Work – once the area is dry, clean, and ready for repairs, the restoration and repair step of this process can begin. Damaged drywall, ceilings, flooring, and other structural parts of the area that have been removed, will be reconstructed, reinstalled, and repaired. Tiles are checked and restored, paint is replaced, and any carpet that is pulled away and will be restored.
Following these steps will help us make sure that your property is taken care of and any damage is mitigated as well as it should be.
