Water, Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration FAQs

You, the client, are responsible for payment. However, we do recommend filing an insurance claim for any damage you experience. Your insurance company, depending on your deductible, will likely pay for most of the restoration work.

Our team aims to please, so during the reconstruction process, we can complete minor upgrades or changes to your home. However, for significant renovations, we recommend speaking with a local contractor.

The cost to fix water damage varies based on a few factors, such as the scope of the damage, the location, and the materials and labor requirements of the job.

Typically, flood and water damage is caused by a number of problems, including:



  • Leaking appliances, such as dishwashers, washing machines, and refrigerators.
  • Leaking or burst pipes
  • Clogged sinks or overflowing toilets
  • Hidden moisture underneath the floors or inside of the walls.
  •  Flash floods, storm damage, hurricanes, tropical storms.

Mold Remediation FAQs

Generally, mold is green or black, considered to be dangerous to your health, and spreads quickly with humidity and moisture. As for mildew, it is relatively gray in color and easily removed with household cleaning products.

Most mold produces a raised surface as it grows and is usually green or black in color. 

The cost of mold remediation is determined by numerous factors. The amount of mold present, how early it was detected, the location, and what type of repairs are required all play a part in determining the total cost.

Mold will begin to grow after 24 hours and continue growing for several weeks thereafter.

Yes, you certainly want to hire a mold expert to address any size growth in your home. The risk of spreading the infestation further into the house is too great.

Mold remediation is the process of removing any mold found within the home and sanitizing the entire area. Additional treatments and preventative measures are then taken to ensure the mold does not return to the area.

We use highly specialized equipment to detect the areas in which mold growth has occurred. Furthermore, moisture found under the floors or within the walls is a sure sign of mold.
