Water damage restoration in Longview, TX

Burst pipe, storm water in the house, or a sewage backup. Stop the water, then get it extracted and dried before the drywall and the pad turn into a mold job.

First hour. Shut off the water if you can. Don't run the AC or heat. Keep people and pets off wet carpet. Photograph the standing water before anyone pulls it out. Then send the form below.

What happened

Burst pipe

Supply line, washing machine, or water heater. Clean water, but it soaks the pad and the wall cavity fast.

Storm water

Roof leak or water pushed in during a hard East Texas rain. Needs extraction plus a dry-out, not just a shop vac and a box fan.

Sewage backup

Category 3 water. Carpet and pad come out, and everything it touched gets treated as contaminated. Don't try to dry this one yourself.

What the crew does

  1. Find the source and stop it, if it is still running.
  2. Extract standing water.
  3. Meter the walls and the floor. Wet drywall gets cut where the meter says it is wet, not by guess.
  4. Set air movers and a dehumidifier. Pull them when the readings are dry, not on a fixed day count.
  5. Write the moisture log the insurance adjuster asks for.

Mold remediation is a follow-on if the water sat. It is not the first call.

What it costs here

Mostly it comes down to what kind of water it was, how far it got, and how much has to be cut out. A supply line that let go in one room and got caught early is a small job. Sewage, or water that ran through the whole floor, is a lot more. Rebuild is priced separately. Get a written estimate after the crew meters the house. Don't go by a number over the phone.

A sudden burst is often a homeowners claim. Rising flood water usually isn't, and neither is a leak that ran for weeks. Either way, the claim rides on the moisture log.

Areas covered

Longview, including Spring Hill, Pine Tree, Judson, and the older streets off Highway 80 and Marshall Avenue. Also White Oak, Gladewater, Kilgore, and Hallsville when the crew is already in Gregg County.

Questions

How fast does this need attention?

Same day. In this humidity, wet drywall and carpet pad can grow mold in 24 to 48 hours.

Can I run fans myself?

A box fan on a soaked pad mostly moves the smell. Extraction and a dehumidifier are the job. If sewage is involved, do not dry it in place.

Who does the work?
