Our Water Damage Restoration & Remediation ProcessRemediation Process

On-Site Assessment

We perform a thorough inspection and consultation to assess the extent of damage and take steps to mitigate further damage, with emergency help available and IICRC-certified teams able to arrive within 60 minutes—or within a few hours, depending on conditions—for water damage, including complete extraction of standing water and urgent response when leaking pipes have caused significant damage.

Loss & Recovery Plan

Your project manager will prepare a complete loss assessment and recovery plan, covering the full scope of your losses and strategizing for the fastest return to pre-loss condition and, where feasible, pre-damaged condition; it can also be shared as a complete file for your insurance claim. Addressing the most critical issues is a priority to ensure safety and minimize further damage when minutes matter, and local compliance may require permits for structural rebuilding or repairs. After the recovery plan is developed, the next steps in the restoration process will be clearly outlined, and ASDT can coordinate with your insurance provider and the adjuster to help confirm scope and move the claim forward, so you know exactly what to expect as your property is restored.

Inventory & Data Collection

We take steps to protect your belongings and document any damaged items, including furniture, for cleaning & restoration and/or submission to insurance. We gather thorough evidence of the damage and organize that documentation so any request from the insurance company can be answered clearly.

Structural Drying & Dehumidification

After taking steps to protect your remaining possessions, we deploy our arsenal of state-of-the-art drying equipment to speed up drying and prevent mold growth. Lingering moisture can also lead to mildew, and mold growth can contribute to respiratory issues for residents if affected areas are not treated promptly. If moisture exposure has caused mold damage, our IICRC-certified technicians can provide mold remediation services as part of the restoration work.

Insurance Negotiation

We detail your losses clearly to your insurance company and insurance provider, work directly with them as needed, assist in developing your presentation strategy, and introduce expert analysis to support your claim, so you may not be personally responsible for every covered repair cost once the claim is reviewed.

Finalization

Once all areas are confirmed to be at their dry standard, all losses are fully recorded, and the area is safe, your project manager will finalize documentation and complete a final walkthrough and handoff with professional care so repairs can begin and restore the house properly. The goal is to restore the house so normal life can begin again with less disruption.

Preventing Water Damage

Taking proactive steps to prevent water damage can save property owners significant time, money, and stress. Regularly inspecting and maintaining plumbing, appliances, roofs, and gutters helps catch potential issues like leaking pipes and a dishwasher leak before they become emergencies. Inspect water heater pans and washer areas every 6 months, and make sure storm drains are clear and devices like flood sensors and sump pumps are in place to further protect your property from unexpected water intrusion. By staying vigilant and addressing maintenance concerns promptly, property owners can reduce the risk of water damage and the need for emergency restoration services. However, if disaster does strike, responding quickly and partnering with a professional restoration company can lead to better outcomes and lower repair burdens while helping lower overall cost by preventing additional damage.

FAQs About Water Damage Services

Water extraction should begin as soon as possible to help prevent further property damage and mold growth. The source of the moisture should also be identified and corrected, and photos or videos of the damage should be taken for insurance documentation.

The IICRC categorizes water damage into three levels based on contamination. Category 1 water comes from a sanitary source, Category 2 contains contaminants such as those from appliances, and Category 3 includes highly contaminated sources such as sewage and stormwater.

Mold remediation may be necessary when materials remain wet, and conditions support mold growth. Prompt remediation may involve utilizing professional containment, drying, and cleanup methods to help prevent further contamination. Professional assessment can help identify affected materials and determine the appropriate cleaning, sanitizing, and remediation steps.

Standard homeowners insurance typically does not cover flood damage. Separate flood insurance may be necessary, including for properties located outside designated high-risk flood zones.

Regular maintenance can reduce the risk of water damage. Inspect water heater pans and washer areas, check the main shutoff valve and confirm it turns before an emergency happens, keep downspouts directed away from the foundation, insulate pipes in crawl spaces, and replace braided supply connectors according to manufacturer recommendations.
