19 services
Every water damage restoration service, one phone number
Start with where the water came from. A split line in a wall points to burst pipe cleanup or frozen pipe water damage. Water that rose through a floor drain is a sewage cleanup job and is treated as contaminated from the first minute. Water that came through a stone wall after a wet week belongs under stone and brick basement water damage, and one that came in when the pump stopped under sump pump failure.
Some services follow others. Structural drying is part of nearly every job, and a mold inspection makes sense when a leak went unnoticed for a while. Plumbing repair, roof replacement, waterproofing and fire restoration are not offered, and the crew will say who to call for them. Not sure which fits? Describe it on the phone and you will be pointed the right way.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What can the crew do about the source of the water?
Help you find and close the right valve, tarp a roof opening or board up a broken window. The pipe, heater or roof repair itself goes to a plumber or roofer, and a seeping foundation goes to a mason or waterproofing contractor. The crew sticks to extraction, drying and cleanup.
What do Category 1, 2 and 3 water mean?
They describe contamination under the IICRC S500 standard. Category 1 is clean water from a supply line, Category 2 is gray water such as washer discharge, and Category 3 is grossly contaminated, like sewage or rising creek water. Clean water can worsen as it sits, which changes both the cleanup and the price.
Do I need mold remediation after every leak?
No, because fast drying usually prevents it. Per the EPA, mold patches under about 10 square feet can usually be cleaned by a homeowner, while larger areas, sewage-related growth or mold in ductwork call for professional mold remediation. Pennsylvania does not license mold inspectors or remediators the way some states do.
Is creek water treated differently from a pipe leak?
Yes. Rising surface water from a creek or runoff counts as Category 3 because it carries soil and contaminants, so porous materials it touched usually come out instead of drying in place. Standard homeowners policies typically exclude flood. See flood damage cleanup for the details.
