Water Damage Restoration Services 

Every water damage situation is different. The amount of water involved, the source of the damage, the materials affected, and how long the property has been exposed to moisture all influence the restoration approach.

RESCO provides comprehensive water restoration services designed to address the immediate water problem while also helping prevent secondary damage.

Emergency Water Extraction

Standing water should be removed as quickly as possible. Our team uses professional extraction equipment to remove large amounts of water from affected areas and begin the restoration process.

Immediate water extraction can help reduce the amount of moisture absorbed by drywall, flooring, insulation, and structural materials.

Water Removal

Water may spread beyond the area where the original leak or flooding occurred. Professional water removal helps eliminate excess water from affected rooms and building materials before the drying process begins. Removing as much water as possible early in the process can significantly improve drying efficiency.

Structural Drying

Removing visible water is only the first step. Moisture can remain trapped inside walls, subfloors, framing, insulation, and other building materials. RESCO uses professional air-moving and dehumidification equipment to provide structural drying designed to remove trapped moisture and return affected materials to appropriate moisture levels.

Flood Cleanup

Flooding can introduce significant amounts of water into a property within a short period of time. RESCO provides professional flood cleanup and flood restoration services to remove water, dry affected areas, clean damaged materials, and help restore the property.

Depending on the source of the floodwater, additional cleaning and sanitization procedures may also be necessary.

Basement Water Damage Cleanup

Basements are particularly vulnerable to flooding because water may enter through foundation cracks, failed sump pumps, plumbing problems, groundwater intrusion, or heavy rainfall.

Our basement water damage cleanup services include water extraction, moisture detection, structural drying, and cleanup of affected materials.

Ceiling and Drywall Water Damage

Water leaking from plumbing lines, roofs, bathrooms, or upper floors can quickly damage drywall and ceilings.

Wet drywall may become soft, stained, swollen, or structurally compromised. Our team evaluates affected areas to determine which materials can be dried and restored and which may require removal or replacement.

Burst Pipe Cleanup

A burst pipe can release a large volume of water into a property in a short period of time. RESCO provides burst pipe cleanup, including emergency water extraction, moisture detection, structural drying, and cleanup of affected areas. Once the water source has been stopped, beginning restoration quickly can help limit the spread of damage.

Common Causes Of Water Damage

Water damage can come from many sources, and identifying the cause quickly can help prevent further damage.

Common causes include:

  • Plumbing Problems: Leaking or burst pipes, damaged fixtures, and clogged plumbing.
  • Severe Weather: Heavy rain, flooding, storms, and roof leaks.
  • Appliance Failures: Leaking washing machines, dishwashers, water heaters, or refrigerators.
  • Roof Damage: Missing shingles, damaged flashing, or deteriorated roofing materials.
  • Foundation Issues: Cracks or poor drainage allowing water into basements or crawl spaces.
  • HVAC Problems: Clogged drain lines, leaks, or malfunctioning equipment.
  • Clogged Gutters: Overflowing gutters can direct water toward the foundation.
  • Frozen Pipes: Freezing temperatures can cause pipes to crack or burst.
  • Sewer Backups: Blocked sewer lines can cause contaminated water to enter the property.
  • Accidental Overflows: Running faucets, overflowing tubs, or other household accidents.

Prompt water removal and drying can help limit property damage, mold growth, and structural problems.

Signs You May Have Water Damage 

Not all water damage is immediately obvious. In some situations, moisture may remain hidden inside walls, ceilings, flooring, or other areas of the property.

Common signs of water damage include:

  • Water stains on ceilings, walls, or flooring
  • Musty or damp odors
  • Bubbling, peeling, or blistering paint
  • Soft or sagging drywall
  • Warped, buckled, or uneven flooring
  • Ceiling discoloration
  • Unexpected moisture or damp areas
  • Visible mold growth
  • Swollen baseboards or trim
  • Unexplained increases in humidity

If you notice these warning signs but cannot identify the source, professional moisture detection may be necessary. Restoration technicians can use specialized equipment to locate elevated moisture levels that may not be visible from the surface.

Why Immediate Water Extraction Is Important

Removing excess water quickly can significantly reduce the extent of property damage. Water can spread into drywall, flooring, insulation, subfloors, and framing, even when the original leak appears contained.

Prompt water extraction helps limit moisture absorption, reduce drying time, and lower the risk of secondary damage such as warped materials, odors, and mold growth. Professional extraction equipment can remove substantially more water than typical household cleanup methods, allowing structural drying to begin sooner.

Our Water Damage Restoration Process

Professional water damage restoration involves more than simply removing visible water. RESCO follows a thorough process designed to identify affected areas, remove moisture, dry the structure, and restore the property.

1. Emergency Inspection

The restoration process begins with an inspection of the affected property. Our technicians identify the source of the water when possible, evaluate the extent of the damage, determine which areas have been affected, and develop an appropriate restoration plan.

2. Water Extraction

Standing water and excess moisture are removed using professional water extraction equipment. Removing water quickly helps prevent it from continuing to spread throughout the property and prepares affected areas for drying.

3. Moisture Mapping and Detection

Once visible water has been removed, technicians check surrounding walls, flooring, ceilings, and structural materials for hidden moisture. Moisture readings help determine where drying equipment should be placed and which areas require continued monitoring.

4. Structural Drying

Air movers and professional dehumidifiers are positioned throughout affected areas to promote evaporation and remove excess moisture from the air and building materials. Drying equipment may remain in place for several days depending on the severity of the damage and the materials affected.

5. Cleaning and Sanitization

Depending on the source of the water and the materials involved, affected areas may require professional cleaning and sanitization. Contaminated water situations, including sewage-related water damage, require additional precautions and specialized cleanup procedures.

6. Repairs and Restoration

Materials that cannot be safely or effectively restored may need to be removed and replaced. The scope of water damage repair may range from minor drywall or flooring repairs to more extensive reconstruction depending on the severity of the damage.

7. Final Inspection

Once drying and restoration work is complete, affected areas are evaluated to confirm that moisture levels have returned to acceptable conditions and restoration work has been completed appropriately.

Why Call a Professional Water Restoration Company?

Small, immediately contained spills may sometimes be manageable without professional help, but larger water losses often require specialized equipment and expertise.

A professional water restoration company can remove standing water, detect hidden moisture, dry affected materials, monitor moisture levels, and identify materials that may require cleaning, repair, or replacement.

Professional restoration is especially important when dealing with flooding, sewage backups, extensive leaks, water inside walls or flooring, or moisture that has remained in the property for an extended period.

Water Damage Restoration FAQs

How quickly should water damage be addressed?

Water damage should be addressed as quickly as possible. The longer water remains inside a property, the more opportunity it has to spread into flooring, drywall, insulation, framing, and other materials. Prompt water extraction and drying can help reduce secondary damage and the risk of mold growth.

How long does water damage restoration take?

The restoration timeline depends on the amount of water involved, the materials affected, how long the water was present, and whether repairs are required. Drying may take several days, while more extensive restoration projects can take longer.

Can water damage lead to mold?

Yes. Excess moisture can create conditions that support mold growth, particularly when wet materials are not dried quickly and thoroughly. Prompt water removal, moisture detection, and structural drying can help reduce the risk.

Will insurance cover water damage?

Insurance coverage depends on the cause of the water damage and the terms of your individual policy. Some sudden and accidental water losses may be covered, while flooding from outside the property or long-term maintenance issues may require different coverage. Property owners should contact their insurance provider to confirm what their policy covers.

What should I do before restoration begins?

If it is safe to do so, stop the source of the water by shutting off the appropriate water supply. Avoid electrical hazards, stay away from contaminated water, and move valuable belongings away from affected areas when possible. For significant water damage, contact a professional restoration company as quickly as possible.
