About America Water Damage

Connecting You with Water Damage Restoration Contractors in New York

America Water Damage connects property owners in New York with independent local water damage restoration contractors. We do not carry out the work ourselves. When water gets into a home or a commercial building, we take the details and put the owner in touch with a contractor who serves their area. NOAA's state climate summary for New York records that Superstorm Sandy caused a massive storm surge in New York City in October 2012, with an estimated $19 billion in damages to the city. In 2011 Hurricane Irene brought more than 18 inches of rain to the Catskills, and Tropical Storm Lee followed with more than 12 inches in the Susquehanna basin. The state has seen a large increase in 2-inch extreme precipitation events, and sea level along the coast has risen about 13 inches since 1880. That is the backdrop for water damage in New York. If you are dealing with it in New York, contact us at any hour. We will take the details and connect you with an independent contractor nearby, who will inspect the property and explain the work before it starts.

Why choose us for water damage restoration

Why Use Our Network in New York

In New York, our role is to shorten the search. We take the address and the details of the loss, then connect the owner with an independent contractor who works in that area and handles that type of damage. We do no restoration work ourselves. New York does not license home improvement contractors statewide. Licensing is local, with programs in New York City and in counties including Nassau, Suffolk and Westchester. Mold is different. The Department of Labor licenses mold assessors and remediation contractors under Article 32 of the Labor Law, and the same party may not perform both the assessment and the remediation on the same property. Ask for the local license and, where mold is involved, the state mold license. Whichever contractor you speak with in New York, ask for a written scope and proof of insurance before agreeing to anything. Any insurance claim is handled between you and the contractor. We do not set or influence prices. The quote comes from the contractor.

Available 24/7

You can reach us at any hour. When a contractor can attend depends on that contractor and on where the property is.

Water Damage Restoration FAQs

Frequently asked questions about water damage restoration

Common questions about water damage restoration in New York, answered plainly.

Is it safe to stay in my home after water damage?

That depends on the source of the water and how much of the home is affected. Clean water from a supply line in one room is a very different situation from sewage or floodwater, which can carry contaminants and should be treated as hazardous. Water near electrical systems, sagging ceilings and soaked structural materials are also reasons for caution. If you have any doubt, keep people and pets out of the affected area until a contractor has inspected it. For anything involving gas or live electricity, call the utility or emergency services first.

How soon can mold start after water damage?

Sooner than most people expect. The US Environmental Protection Agency says it is important to dry water-damaged areas and items within 24 to 48 hours to prevent mold growth. Warm, humid conditions and porous materials such as drywall, carpet pad and insulation make growth more likely. The EPA also suggests that moldy areas larger than about 10 square feet, or mold that follows extensive water damage, are a reason to consult a professional. Some states license mold work separately, so ask any contractor in New York which credential covers it.

What are the categories of water damage?

The restoration industry commonly sorts water into three categories by contamination. Category 1 is clean water from a sanitary source such as a supply line. Category 2 is water with significant contamination, for example from a washing machine or dishwasher discharge. Category 3 is grossly contaminated water such as sewage or floodwater. The category matters because it changes what can be cleaned and kept and what has to be removed. Clean water can also degrade into a worse category the longer it sits, which is one more reason to act early.

How long does drying take?

There is no single answer, and you should be cautious of anyone who promises one before seeing the property. Drying time depends on how much water was involved, how long materials were wet, what they are made of and the conditions in the building. Dense materials such as hardwood, plaster and concrete release moisture more slowly than drywall or carpet. The honest measure is not the calendar but the readings. A contractor should track moisture levels regularly and keep drying until the affected materials reach a dry standard.

How are contractors matched to my property in New York?

We match on two things: where the property is and what kind of loss it has. A clean-water leak in a single room, a sewage backup and a flooded commercial unit call for different capabilities, so we ask a few questions about the source of the water, the areas affected and the type of building. We then connect you with an independent contractor who serves New York and handles that type of work. The contractor, not us, inspects the property and decides what the job involves.
