What is Residential Emergency Restoration?

Disasters don't wait. A burst pipe at 2 AM. A fire that just went out. Storm damage from a hurricane. You need help now.

Our team is ready 24/7. We work every day of the year. Nights. Weekends. Holidays. No exception.

Every minute matters. Water spreads fast. It causes more damage each hour. Fire soot eats away at surfaces. Open buildings face more damage and theft.

We show up fast with the right tools. Our trucks carry pumps that remove water quickly. We bring boards and tarps to seal openings. We use strong dryers and dehumidifiers. We know how to check damage and make a plan.

We know this is hard. You're stressed. You have questions. Our team explains each step. We talk to your insurance company. We help you find a place to stay or work if needed.

Speed saves money. The first 24-48 hours matter most. Mold starts growing. Walls and floors break down. The longer you wait, the worse it gets. Act fast to save your property and your budget.

Why Residential Emergency is Different

A home emergency is incredibly stressful for families. Beyond the physical damage, there's the emotional impact of seeing your home damaged and the uncertainty of what comes next. Our residential emergency team responds with both urgency and compassion, explaining each step of the process, coordinating with insurance, and doing everything possible to minimize disruption to your family's life. We understand that you may have elderly family members, young children, or pets that add complexity to emergency situations—we work with you to address all your family's needs.

Our Residential Service Focus

Family safety and health concerns
Mold risks for children and elderly
Insurance claim guidance for homeowners
Personal, reassuring language
Quick response for peace of mind
Protecting belongings and memories

Why Fast Action Matters

Time is money. The first 24-48 hours decide everything. Mold starts fast. Walls soften. Floors warp. Fire residue gets harder to remove. Costs go up every hour. Insurance also expects you to act fast. Delays can hurt your claim.

Emergency Restoration FAQs

Get answers to common questions about our services in your area.

Emergency restoration is needed for any situation where delay will cause additional damage or safety hazards. This includes active water leaks or flooding, fire or smoke damage, sewage backups, storm damage with exposed interiors, and any situation where the property is unsecured. If you're unsure whether your situation is an emergency, call us—we're available 24/7 and can help assess the urgency of your situation.
Our emergency response team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays. We typically arrive on-site within 30-60 minutes throughout South Florida. Upon arrival, we immediately assess the situation, stop ongoing damage when possible, and begin mitigation to prevent further deterioration. Every minute counts in restoration emergencies, which is why rapid response is our priority.
Your safety comes first—evacuate if there's any danger. If safe, turn off water at the main shutoff for leaks, turn off electricity to affected areas, and turn off HVAC to prevent spreading contamination. Move valuables away from affected areas if possible. Document damage with photos. Do not enter flood water, attempt electrical repairs, or try to clean sewage yourself. Our team will guide you through additional steps when you call.
Most insurance policies cover emergency mitigation services because they prevent additional damage and reduce overall claim costs. This includes water extraction, board-up services, emergency tarping, and temporary repairs. We document all emergency work thoroughly for insurance purposes and can bill your insurance company directly in most cases. We recommend contacting your insurance company promptly to report the incident.
Yes, we work with all insurance companies and have experience with the claims processes of major insurers. We document all damage thoroughly with photos, moisture readings, and detailed reports. We can communicate directly with your adjuster, provide the documentation they need, and help ensure your claim is processed efficiently. We're familiar with insurance requirements and can help you understand your coverage.
Our emergency services operate 24/7, 365 days a year. Emergencies don't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Nights, weekends, and holidays—we respond with the same urgency and professionalism. Our after-hours calls are answered by trained personnel who can dispatch crews immediately, not an answering service that takes messages.
While we don't directly provide temporary housing, we can provide guidance on the process and documentation your insurance company needs for additional living expenses claims. We work to restore your property as quickly as possible to minimize displacement time. For businesses, we can coordinate restoration schedules to allow partial operations and prioritize critical areas to minimize business interruption.
Emergency mitigation stabilizes your property and prevents further damage. After mitigation, we provide a comprehensive damage assessment and restoration plan. This includes estimates for repairs, timelines, and coordination with your insurance company. We can handle the complete restoration process from mitigation through final repairs, or coordinate with your preferred contractors. We stay involved until your property is fully restored.
