Our Water Restoration Process

Our experienced team will start by completing an inspection of your home to assess the extent of the damage. Next, we will begin water mitigation to prevent any further damage from occurring. First, we will:

  • Pump out any remaining water
  • Remove any damaged materials
  • Completely dry out the affected areas

Then we will begin the reconstruction process. Our teams are highly trained to ensure that the structural integrity of your home is restored so that you can rest easy again in your home.

How Long Does Water Damage Restoration Take?

Drying out your home can take on average 1-3 days and reconstruction could take a few weeks. However, these are rough estimates as each project differs. It all depends on how much of your home is affected and how bad the damage is.

Once we complete an inspection of your home, we will have a better idea of the timeline for restoration. It could be shorter or longer than what is stated above depending on your particular situation. Reach out to our experts as soon as possible to begin restoration! The sooner we start the restoration process the better. Moisture will continue to eat away at your home until it's properly mitigated.

Does Water Damage Lead to Mold Growth?

Unfortunately, in the majority of cases, water damage will lead to mold growing in your home. Mold thrives where there is moisture, and it only takes 1-3 days for it to begin to grow after you experience water damage.

At ServiceMaster by Gilmore, our water mitigation process includes preventing mold growth in your home by quickly drying and sanitizing the area. Mold can be extremely toxic to your health and your home. Let our experts do the hard work and ensure your home is protected from mold growth.
