FAQ
Services FAQs
What water damage services do I need after a leak?
Usually three things: stopping the water (a plumber or the main shutoff), getting the water out and drying the structure (mitigation), and then rebuilding what had to be removed (repairs). Some leaks also need sewage cleanup, ceiling work or hardwood floor drying, depending on where the water went.
Do you work on homes and businesses?
Yes. Calls to (972) 947-2040 are connected with an independent restoration provider serving Richardson homes, apartments, offices and retail spaces in 75080, 75081 and 75082.
Is water damage service available at night and on weekends?
It depends on the provider. Some restoration companies take after-hours calls, but availability at night and on weekends varies, and providers are easiest to reach on weekdays during business hours. If water is still coming in, shut off your main water valve first, then call. Ask about the expected arrival time and whether after-hours rates apply.
