Why This Question Comes Up
When water gets into a home, the first worry is getting it out. The second, usually a day or two later, is who will fix everything it touched. Many homeowners in Janesville, Madison and Baraboo expect to hire one company to dry the space and then start calling around for someone to replace the drywall, flooring and paint. We hear the question often, so here is a straight answer on how we handle it.
The Short Answer
Yes. The same crew that extracts the water and dries the space also handles the rebuild. That includes drywall, flooring, insulation, carpentry and painting. Our water damage restoration work is set up to run from the first call through the finished repair, so you are not coordinating separate companies for each step.
What the Process Looks Like
Start With a Fast Call
Call as soon as you find the damage. We focus on a fast response, because drying a space quickly is what limits further damage. Every project starts with a call, followed by an in-person visit to look at the space before we put together a free estimate.
Extraction and Drying
The first job is getting the water out and drying the affected area. This comes before any rebuilding, since new materials installed over a space that is still wet only set up a second repair later.
Rebuilding What Was Damaged
Once the space is dry, we rebuild what was damaged. Depending on the job, that can mean any of the following:
- Drywall. Damaged sections are replaced and finished, including texture matching so the repair blends in.
- Flooring. Flooring is often the first material affected once water reaches a room, and it is one of the most common repairs afterward. See our flooring, drywall and painting work.
- Insulation. A wall or ceiling opened up for a water repair is a good moment to look at the insulation inside it before it is closed back up.
- Carpentry. Trim and other woodwork that was damaged can be repaired or replaced through our remodeling and carpentry work.
- Painting. Fresh paint is the last step that makes the repair disappear.
What About Insurance?
Many water damage repairs involve an insurance claim. We can assist with documentation and coordination for insurance-related repair work, which keeps the paperwork connected to the same crew doing the work.
Why One Crew Makes Sense
When one team handles the drying and the rebuild, nothing gets lost between steps. The crew that saw how far the water traveled is the same crew deciding what needs to be replaced, so the scope of the repair comes from what we actually saw in your home. It also means one point of contact, one schedule, and a clean job site from start to finish.
