Paying For Water Damage Restoration

Water damage mitigation is the only industry we know of that asks you to sign a contract allowing us to perform all necessary restoration services without giving a cost upfront. This is standard practice in our industry. At best we can provide a ballpark figure. This is simply because it is impossible to know how long a material will take to dry or if you have particleboard flooring that will have to be removed. Insurance companies understand there are several variables that factor into the cost of water damage restoration and do not expect the total price to be submitted until completion of the restoration.

Selecting a Water Damage Restoration Contractor

When you are in need of water damage restoration, it is important to select a company that offers these services full-time. For instance, some carpet cleaners, plumbers, and organizations in many other industries are starting to offer water damage restoration. Do not expect companies that offer water damage restoration as a secondary service to be experts in the field. Since anyone can claim to be an experienced water damage restoration contractor, it is important to ask plenty of questions. Also, take note of how they approach their initial inspection. If you ever receive an estimate aimed at simply painting over severe water damage, RUN.

November 03, 2022 | Gaston, SC

The team worked with the homeowner to submit claim information to homeowners’ insurance and then provided containment to help dry out the impacted rooms and limit damage to surfaces that had gotten wet. A full repair and replacement plan was created for the owner to use for the claims process with their insurance.

The team from Kingsley moved the fridge and helped to stop the water leak, then documented the damage for insurance purposes. Drying of the area was done with dehumidifiers, fans, and air movers. A complete assessment for dry rot and other water-related damage was done as well.

October 05, 2022 | Swansea, SC

We began with a full walkthrough of the Swansea property to find out where water had actually gone, rather than only where it was visible. That meant checking the hall bathroom, the crawlspace underneath it, the exterior walls and the attic, and taking moisture readings in each of those areas. The attic told us something useful right away: the staining up there was old, with no active moisture behind it, so it did not need to be opened up. The crawlspace was a different story, with readings under the hall bathroom coming back elevated.

Crawlspaces are tight, poorly ventilated spaces, so before starting we made sure the area was safe to work in and that anything we disturbed stayed contained. Damp material under a floor can carry microbial growth, and stirring it up sends it toward the living space above through the gaps around plumbing and ductwork. Keeping that separation in place protected the occupied part of the building while the work went on underneath it.

In the bathroom, the vinyl floor tiles were already damaged, and because tile and sheet flooring traps water underneath it, we removed them to expose the substrate and let it dry out. Below that, in the crawlspace, the work was structural drying: air movers positioned to push air across the wood framing and subfloor, and dehumidifiers to pull the evaporated moisture out of the air rather than let it settle somewhere else in the building. Damp wood in a closed crawlspace does not dry on its own, and it stays wet long enough for mold to take hold.

We took moisture readings on a schedule while the equipment ran, tracking the framing and subfloor as the numbers came down. This is the part of a job a homeowner cannot see, and it is the part that determines whether the repair holds. Equipment comes out when the readings say the materials are dry, not when a certain number of days have passed.

Once the crawlspace and the bathroom substrate reached normal moisture levels, we removed the equipment, cleaned the work areas and left the bathroom floor ready for new finish flooring. The exterior and attic were documented as inspected with no active intrusion, so the owner has a clear record of what was affected and what was not.

The reason a job like this one in Swansea gets handled from the crawlspace up rather than from the finished floor down is straightforward. The water was never really in the bathroom, it was under it. Drying the space you can see while skipping the space you cannot is how the same problem comes back a few months later as a musty smell or a soft spot in the floor.
