## Before Help Arrives — What to Do Right Now

If it's safe to do so, these 5 steps in the first 30 minutes can dramatically reduce your repair costs and protect your insurance claim.

1

### Shut Off the Water

Turn off the main water valve to stop the source immediately.

2

### Cut the Power

Switch off electricity to affected rooms — never wade through standing water near outlets.

3

### Move Valuables

Relocate furniture, electronics, and important documents to a dry area.

4

### Document Everything

Take photos and video of all damage for your insurance claim before cleanup.

5

### Call Us Now

The first 24–48 hours decide whether mold sets in. Don't wait — every hour compounds the damage.

Safety first: Never enter a flooded area if you suspect electrical contact, gas leaks, or contaminated water (sewage backup, post-fire runoff). When in doubt, wait outside and call us first.

## Frequently Asked Questions

Real answers to the questions California homeowners ask us most.

Can water damage happen after a wildfire in California?

Yes. Firefighting efforts saturate structures with thousands of gallons of water, often causing more property damage than the fire itself. Post-wildfire burn scars also destabilize soil, turning normal winter rainstorms into destructive debris flows, flash floods, and mudslides — the 2018 Montecito event remains a stark example.

Do you handle wildfire, smoke, and soot damage?

Yes. Our California crews are certified for full wildfire restoration: soot removal, smoke odor neutralization, HVAC decontamination, structural stabilization, and complete rebuild under IICRC S700 fire & smoke certification.

Does my California homeowners insurance cover mudflow damage?

Most standard homeowners policies exclude mudslide, mudflow, and landslide damage regardless of cause. Mudflow is typically covered only under NFIP (federal flood insurance) — critical for post-wildfire burn scar properties.

Does my contractor need to be CSLB-licensed?

Yes. Any California contractor performing restoration work over $500 must hold an active CSLB license. Verify at cslb.ca.gov. All contractors in our CA network hold both CSLB and IICRC credentials.

How fast can you arrive anywhere in California?

Typically within 60 minutes in major CA metros (LA, SD, SF, San Jose, Sacramento, Fresno) and within 90 minutes in Central Valley or rural communities. Water damage doubles in 24 hours; mold can begin within 48 hours.

How fast do I really need to act after water damage?

Faster than most people realize. Drywall starts wicking water within an hour. Hardwood floors begin to cup in 12-24 hours. Mold becomes a serious risk between 24 and 48 hours after exposure to moisture.

Will my California homeowner's insurance cover this?

Most standard CA policies cover sudden water damage — burst pipes, supply line failures, appliance overflow, roof leaks from storms. They typically don't cover gradual leaks, poor maintenance, or external flooding (which requires separate flood insurance through NFIP).

What about mold? Should I be worried?

Mold can begin growing on wet materials within 24-48 hours. Once established, removal becomes significantly more expensive — containment, HEPA filtration, sometimes tearing out drywall. The biggest factor in preventing mold is how quickly the structure is dried.

How long does the whole restoration process take?

It depends on severity. Extraction and initial drying typically take 1-3 days. Structural drying continues for 3-5 days. If reconstruction is needed (drywall, flooring, paint), that adds one to several weeks. Major fire or flood restoration with extensive rebuild: 4-8 weeks.

Is your line really 24/7 — even on holidays?

Yes. Our dispatch line is staffed by live operators 24 hours a day, every day of the year. Most calls connect to a contractor on-site within an hour, regardless of the time.
