Water damage in a building (residential or commercial) can be devastating. There are many different causes of water damage and each presents its own set of challenges. Water damage must be dealt with immediately after discovery to prevent further damage. The longer a liquid is in a material through absorption, the more damage it will cause. Our knowledgeable and experienced team is here to help you get the cause of the water damage figured out & fixed, the proper drying equipment set up in a timely fashion to avoid further damage and the restoration and rebuild complete. From start to finish we've got you covered.
FLOOD AND WATER INSPECTION
An inspection after water damage should be conducted by a trained professional with the proper tools and experience to ensure you don't go too far or not far enough with the repairs. The inspector performing the assessment will provide a detailed scope of work with materials required and all costs involved. Some situations require the involvement of an insurance company, we have experience in these situations as well. The inspection is a very important part of the process, it will establish a plan that all parties involved can get on board with.
FLOOD AND WATER DAMAGE TESTING
A flood can cause a lot of damage behind walls, under flooring, and in other places that cannot be easily seen. Sometimes testing is required for the materials affected. Tests for mold, asbestos and other harmful agents can give all people involved in the project peace of mind as they do their work. Air quality testing might also be necessary depending on the situation. We have the equipment, tools and experience to know what needs to be tested and why.
WATER DAMAGE RESTORATION
After the initial inspection and all appropriate testing is complete it's time to get to work. That means getting rid of the water, drying out everything that has been affected, removing all materials that are beyond repair and repairing the issue that caused the water damage in the first place. This part of the project is time consuming but everything needs to be done properly with an attention to detail to ensure there are no issues that arise again. Your experts at Amaze Restoration are ready to restore your commercial or residential property to the way it should be.
REBUILD AFTER WATER DAMAGE
With the inspections, testing, removal and final testing now complete it’s time to put everything that was affected back together. Quite often the restoration contractor will serve as the general contractor at this point. Restoration contractors have a long list of qualified trade contacts to utilize, they are also familiar with the way everything was set up beforehand. Depending on the situation, the rebuild after water damage may require specialty waterproof materials to be installed. This would be the case if mother nature caused the flood and could cause it again one day.

IS WATER DAMAGE AN EMERGENCY?
Water damage should be considered an emergency because of the lasting effects it can cause. It can cause serious structural damage because of the fact that absorbs into wood and drywall and spreads from there. Small leaks can add up to a big problem too. Any standing water is a breeding ground for mold which can cause issues with air quality in a building.
