Frequently Asked Questions

The tear-out process involves the removal of all water-damaged materials from your property.

Water damage insurance claims depend on several different factors. Ultimately, you’ll need to clarify this with your insurance company. However, we can tell you that the feasibility of water damage insurance claims primarily depends on what caused the damage (storm, burst pipe, plumbing malfunction, localized flood, sump pump failure, etc.). Some insurance policies will outline scenarios that will NOT be covered without specific riders, like flood insurance or sump pump failure insurance.

The process begins with contacting your insurance company to report the damage. You’ll then need to document the damage with photos and detailed notes. It’s advisable to contact a restoration contractor as well as your insurance adjuster simultaneously. The restoration contractor will help ensure that the water extraction and dry out will be covered and the rebuild process that should follow. If the full scope of the claim isn’t outlined and agreed upon from the start, there may be issues down the line, and property owners may find themselves having to pay out of pocket to get the property completely back to normal.

WTR Restoration can work directly with your insurance company to streamline the claims process. We’ll document the damage, assist with the preparation of necessary reports, and provide your insurance company with the detailed information they need to process your claim.

Additional Living Expenses (ALE) is a type of coverage in homeowner’s insurance policies that pays for the extra costs of living incurred by the policyholder if they are temporarily displaced from their home due to an insured disaster, such as water damage. This can include hotel bills, restaurant meals, and other living expenses. The specifics of ALE coverage can vary, so it’s important to check your policy or speak with your insurance provider for details.

That depends on the types of materials that were affected by water. Drywall, carpet, and hardwood floors will take longer to dry than other materials in the space. We use moisture meters throughout the process and in many different locations to gauge the moisture levels and will continue to adjust our fans and dehumidifiers to achieve an efficient but effective dry time. The bare minimum of “three days to dry” may only produce a surface dry but can still leave behind moisture levels that create an ideal environment for mold to grow.

The cost of repairing water damage can vary greatly depending on the extent and type of damage, the cost of any necessary replacements or repairs, and whether or not insurance will cover the costs. We provide detailed estimates to give you a clear understanding of the potential costs.

Water damage insurance claims depend on several factors, including the cause of the damage. It’s best to discuss this with your insurance company.
