About Barex
What Should I Do Immediately After Water Damage?
Shut off the water source if possible, turn off electricity to the affected area if water is near outlets, and move valuables out of the wet zone. Avoid using regular household fans on contaminated water, and call a professional restoration company as soon as possible, since the first 24 to 48 hours are critical for preventing mold growth.
How Much Does Water Damage Restoration Cost?
Costs typically range from $1,300 to $5,500, depending on the extent of the damage, with larger jobs involving structural drying, hardwood floor replacement, or drywall removal running higher. Barex provides a free assessment and detailed estimate before any work begins.
Is Water Damage Covered by Insurance?
Sudden and accidental water damage, like a burst pipe or storm-driven flooding, is usually covered by standard homeowners insurance. Damage from gradual leaks, poor maintenance, or long-term humidity issues is typically excluded. Flooding from external water sources, like storm surge, usually requires separate flood insurance.
How Long Can Water Sit Before Mold Grows?
Mold can begin growing in as little as 24 to 48 hours after water exposure. The exact timeline depends on humidity, temperature, and airflow, but fast water extraction and drying are essential to prevent secondary mold damage in any climate.
Is Water Damage Considered an Emergency?
Yes, water damage should always be treated as an emergency. The longer water sits, the greater the risk of structural damage, warped flooring, and mold growth. Barex offers emergency response for water damage to minimize both damage and restoration costs.
How Do Professionals Dry a House After Water Damage?
Restoration professionals use industrial air movers, dehumidifiers, and moisture meters to monitor drying progress in real time, rather than just visually assessing when a space "looks" dry. This process typically takes three to five days and ensures moisture is removed from wall cavities and subflooring, not just surface areas.
