Water Damage Cleanup in Augusta

We handle water damage cleanup across Augusta, from the first call to the last moisture reading, and we're available day or night.

Homes and Plumbing

Most houses in Augusta went up between the 1970s and the 1990s. Copper supply lines in the older houses here are reaching the age where pinhole leaks start.

Winter and Frozen Pipes

Freeze and thaw cycles put pipes in garages at risk of bursting in winter, along with outdoor faucet lines.

We cover every part of Augusta, including New Augusta and the streets around the Michigan Road corridor and Ascension St. Vincent Hospital. We also take water damage calls from Trader's Point and St. Vincent-Greenbriar.

Expert Water Damage Restoration for Augusta Homeowners

Hardwood floors in your Augusta home start to cup when water sits under them, and the boards keep moving for days after the surface looks dry. Fast extraction and drying from below can often save the floor. Augusta Water Restoration dispatches a crew within 2 hours with drying mats and moisture meters. The crew reads the boards and the subfloor before deciding which ones can stay.

Augusta Water Restoration writes the scope line by line, with the readings and photos behind each item. That lets you compare it apples to apples with any other estimate for your Augusta home. If another company lists more demolition, ask to see the readings behind it. Every line on the scope you get from Augusta Water Restoration points back to something the crew measured or photographed.

After contaminated water is out and soaked materials are removed, the crew cleans the surfaces that stay and applies an EPA registered antimicrobial. The product stays wet for the time its label calls for. Augusta Water Restoration records the product name and where it went in your file, along with photos of the cleaned areas in your Augusta home.

You can have the water removed right away while you decide about insurance. Augusta Water Restoration starts extraction and drying in your Augusta home on your written okay, and the crew documents everything as it goes. Check your policy for what it asks you to do after a water loss, and call your agent if anything is unclear. The photo report will be ready when you are.

Call Augusta Water Restoration for an inspection of water damage in your Augusta home. The crew finds the source, reads the walls and floors and explains what it would take to dry them. You decide whether to go ahead, and the readings are yours to keep either way.

Our Process

How Augusta Water Restoration Handles Water Damage Restoration

We follow these steps in order on every Augusta job.

1

Photo Report

Photos, readings and the scope go into a photo report you keep. The crew walks you through it, so you can decide with your insurance company, and you sign off on the scope before any removal starts.

2

Opening Wall Cavities

Small holes near the baseboard, or a thin strip of drywall removed along the floor, give dry air a path into wet wall cavities. The crew reads the framing inside before deciding how much more of the wall has to open.

3

Power and Cord Safety

Equipment is plugged into separate circuits so a single tripped breaker is less likely to stop the whole drying setup, and cords run along walls and away from wet areas. You hear which outlets to leave alone in your home.

4

Final Readings

The crew takes final readings on every material that got wet and compares them with dry materials in the same house. Equipment comes out after those numbers are written down, and any containment comes down last.

5

Final Walkthrough

The crew walks every repaired room with you, takes one last set of readings and hands over the photo report, the daily logs and the scope. Anything that needs another look goes on a list before the crew leaves.

Common Questions

Water Damage Restoration FAQ

Questions Augusta homeowners ask us about water damage restoration.

A family member or a neighbor can meet the crew at your Augusta home and show them the wet areas. Tell Augusta Water Restoration who will be there and how to reach you by phone, and the crew will go over what it finds with you before any removal begins. Extraction and the first round of drying can go ahead with a helper on site, and the photos and readings come to you either way.
Often it does, because material that dries in place doesn't need to be replaced, and that keeps the repair list shorter. Tearing out drywall or flooring that could have dried adds disposal and rebuilding to the job. Some materials can't dry, though, such as swollen particleboard or pad soaked with contaminated water. Augusta Water Restoration lets the readings in your Augusta home decide, and each removal is photographed and explained before it happens.
Photograph the source, the water line on the walls, damaged belongings and each wet room before anything is moved, with a few close ups beside a tape measure. Keep the failed part and your plumber's invoice, and save receipts for anything you buy because of the loss. Augusta Water Restoration adds its own photos and readings for your Augusta home, and you receive the whole file at the end of the job.
Water damage work follows the IICRC S500, now in its Fifth Edition from 2021. When mold turns up, the reference is the IICRC S520, Fourth Edition, from 2024. On your job in Augusta, the crew reads the wet materials every day and compares them with dry materials in your own house, and you get every reading in writing.
A technician returns each day the equipment runs to take readings and adjust the setup. If something changes between visits, such as a tripped breaker or a unit that stops running, call Augusta Water Restoration at (317) 342-7736 and you'll hear what to do. Each visit adds readings to your log, so you can watch your Augusta home move toward the dry numbers.
It depends on the source and on what the water crossed. Water from a supply line starts out clean, but water from a tub drain or a toilet overflow carries contamination, and any water that runs through insulation and dust picks up more. Ceilings that held water usually come down so the cavity can dry. Augusta Water Restoration traces the source in your Augusta home and sets the category before planning the work.
Yes. If the crew finds mold while drying your Augusta home, Augusta Water Restoration walks you through where it is and what removing it involves. The work follows the IICRC S520, with plastic containment, HEPA filtered air and removal of the affected material. Drying continues at the same time, since mold returns to anything left wet. The mold work gets its own line on the scope, so you can see it separately.
You can usually stay in the house, since the dry rooms remain usable, though the equipment is loud and draws a lot of power. The crew keeps cords and hoses tidy so you can still move around your Augusta home. If the kitchen or bathroom is out of service, or water reached the bedrooms, you may prefer to stay elsewhere for a few days. Ask your agent whether your policy includes living expense coverage.
Augusta Water Restoration builds a moisture map on the first visit to record where the water is and how wet each spot reads. The crew picks reading points on the walls and floors and returns to the same points daily, so a chart of those numbers shows which areas are drying and which are stuck. The outer edge of the map marks where removal and equipment placement can stop in your Augusta home.
Yes, because closing up a wall or laying new flooring over materials that are still damp can trap moisture and lead to new problems. The final readings show that the structure matches the dry reference, which is the signal that repairs can start. Augusta Water Restoration provides those readings in writing, and you can give your contractor a copy of the log from your Augusta home to compare with their own meter before they close anything up.
