Remediation of water damage by removal of flooring and bottom 18" of drywall

Take Action as Soon as You Recognize Water Damage In Your Home

Water damage can happen any time of year, and can spread quickly if left unchecked. Drywall wicks moisture upward from the floor, paint bubbles on a ceiling, a drip comes through a light fixture. If you notice signs of water, taking action right away will minimize your repair bill.

Make sure to call your insurer as soon as possible. They may need some time to assess and release funds as they often conduct their own inspection. Insured or not, we're here to help.

Complete Restoration Covers Drying, Repair, and Mold Prevention

Most water damage happens in basements. If standing water was present, we cut the first two feet of drywall off the walls to remove wet sections. We dry the space with dehumidifiers to ensure the area is dry before we begin repairs.

Once moisture levels drop, we install insulation, new drywall and flooring. The process is straightforward for most basement floods. Renovations can be an opportunity to refinish, but make sure to address the root problem by checking the drainage system1 or roof.

Navigating Insurance for Water Damage in Ottawa

We work alongside your insurance claim, not against it. We document damage thoroughly, provide itemized scopes, and communicate directly with adjusters when needed. You focus on your family and household, we move the project forward.

Restoration Timelines Depend on Damage Extent and Building Type

Minor basement flooding takes five to seven days from start to finish, and drying accounts for most of that time. The more extensive the water damage, the more time is needed for restoration. Major repair work can take up to three weeks when structural elements like a roof assembly need to be replaced.

Because flooding and water damage usually affect drywall, restoration usually triggers asbestos testing. Most homes built before 1990 have asbestos, and if detected it must be abated before restoration can take place.
