What changes the price
- Area and depth
- A single wet room costs less than a finished basement. Deep water means more extraction and more materials to remove.
- Type of water
- Clean water is the least expensive. Gray and black water need protective gear, disposal and disinfecting.
- Time since the loss
- Water that sits for days spreads into framing and starts mold. Fast calls keep the scope smaller.
- Materials
- Carpet is quick to deal with. Hardwood, plaster, tile over slab and built-ins take more equipment and time.
- Equipment days
- Drying is billed by the equipment and the days it runs. A humid week adds days.
- Hours of work
- Nights, weekends and phased commercial work add labor.
Ways to keep the cost down
- Call at the first sign of water, not after a weekend
- Shut off the water and move belongings off wet floors
- Take photos and video before anything moves
- Tell us where the water came from and how long it ran
- Ask about drying in place when finishes are worth saving
- Check your policy and call your agent early
