Time Is of the Essence When It Comes to Water Damage
Water damage can happen fast and without warning. Small leaks can lead to long term issues with water intrusion and mold damage. Bigger issues, like natural disasters or burst pipes, can lead to instant and urgent flooding.
Pools of water in the affected area do not typically dry on their own. Water gets soaked into wood, drywall, and cracks. As it evaporates, it also leads to moisture and humidity, spreading the water damage throughout a property. The longer moisture lingers, the more it can:
- Weaken the Surrounding Structure
- Trap in Moisture
- Create an Environment for Bacteria, Mold Growth, and Pests
In some cases, the water is caused by sewage backups or contains some bacteria and pathogens. Grey water and wastewater can cause issues, potentially spreading disease throughout a property and making it uninhabitable, if remediation services are not sought immediately.
Because of the urgency of these issues, it’s important to find a water extraction and water damage restoration company that you can trust to handle these critical tasks.
Estimating Water Damage Restoration
Water damage ranges from slow drips to urgent floods. Our services are designed around those varying needs. No project is too big or too small, and we’re happy to support both residential and commercial properties to provide the necessary assistance based on the type of damage you’re experiencing, the urgency, and the dangers involved.
We can assist with:
- Flood Water Removal
- Bathroom Flooding
- Kitchen Flooding
- Basement Flooding
- Carpet Flooding Damage
- Broken Pipes, Roof Leaks
- Sewage Backups and Sanitation
From Removal to Restoration
There are different categories of water depending on how safe the water is and how urgent the cleanup needs to be. The most dangerous water frequently comes from the sewer. Backed up sewers and broken sewer lines can cause urgent, precarious challenges, as this water has contaminants that can spread quickly throughout a property.
Our team will not only clean up spills, but we’ll also disinfect and sanitize the entire space so that your family, employees, or tenants are safe from the risk of mold and bacteria. Especially wastewater spills need to be cleaned up fast and thoroughly, and our team will always give your property the care that it deserves.

What To Do If You Are Affected By A Flood
- Contact Rescue Clean 911 at 1-833-CLEAN99 (561.944.6501) for a prompt property damage assessment. If you are insured, your insurance policy likely requires you to take prompt action to minimize damages to your home covered under your policy.
- Stay out of the area unless you are wearing protective gear. The water may contain dangerous contaminants, and it may also be hiding unseen dangers like broken glass and nails.
- Don’t use items affected by the flood until they have been thoroughly sanitized and disinfected. The items may have picked up harmful bacteria.
- Call your insurance company immediately to report the damage and review your coverage. (Rescue Clean 911 does not make any determinations or decisions regarding insurance coverage, but can help answer any questions with billing throughout the process)
- If possible, turn off the water and electrical power to the flooded area. This will prevent more water from entering the area and ensure the water isn’t carrying an electrical current.

Water Damage Restoration Services FAQs
How long will it take my property to dry and how do I know when it is completely dry?
Drying time is determined by a combination of factors, including the location, duration and source of water, the types of building materials, the weather conditions and how quickly emergency services begin.
Proper testing with our specialized equipment is the correct way to determine if things are completely dry. Touch alone may be a false indicator.
Will turning up the heat help dry things out?
Not necessarily. We will adjust the temperature to its optimum setting for the proper drying conditions. Please do not change the setting or shut off the HVAC system; doing so may prolong the drying process.
My wood floors are wet and buckling. Will they have to be replaced?
Wood flooring must be evaluated during the drying process. We employ specialized drying systems and dehumidifiers that enable us to create an environment where wood floors can dry more efficiently and resume their original shape. Due to the density of hardwood flooring and urethane finishes, drying may take up to three weeks or longer.
If you file a claim, your insurance adjuster will work with you to make the final decision as to whether floors will need to be refinished or replaced.
What about my wet furniture?
The extent of damage and the construction of the furniture will determine if your furniture can be restored. Your furniture must be dried before damage can be adequately assessed.
Non-salvageable furniture will be documented for you, and if any items need to be discarded, a customer release form will need to be signed.
Do I need to move out of my property during this process?
If you file an insurance claim, you may receive guidance from your insurance representative. However, this is a decision you must make on your own.
Here are several things to consider:
- Our equipment is as child proof as possible, but we require your supervision to make sure no children play with it.
- Air movers and dehumidifiers will create noise and make your property drafty for a few days.
- It is important that the equipment remains on, so if the noise is disruptive to you, you might want to consider an alternate place to stay.
What’s that smell?
Increased heat and humidity can lead to odors that may be coming from the drying building materials, or dormant spill and accident areas. Do not confuse these normal odors with the odor of mold. As the drying process continues and humidity levels drop, you’ll notice these odors disappearing on their own. Deodorizers are often used to minimize these effects as well.
Does everything need to be moved out during restoration?
Not usually. If items need to be moved out, we will let you know in advance.
How will you match my carpet pad?
A sample of your pad is brought to our office for a match. When available, an identical pad will be used. When your original pad is not available, we will provide a pad of the same quality, thickness and density. A similar pad may differ in color based upon the time it was manufactured.
