Water damage questions tend to repeat: who shows up, does it cost anything, will insurance pay for it. Here are the straight answers. The about page explains how this line works and who actually shows up at your door, and the guides section explains what happens next, from drying times to insurance claims.
Common questions
Does calling cost anything?
No. The call is free, and so is the estimate from the company you're connected with. Nothing about calling obligates you to hire anyone.
Do you do the restoration work yourselves?
The hands-on work is done by independent local contractors, licensed and insured where Texas law requires it. We take your call, get the details down, and get the right crew moving.
Who shows up at my house?
A local restoration crew that serves the Katy area and can take the job. If you want to ask about a crew's licensing or insurance before they start, ask. Good crews expect that question.
How fast can someone get to my house?
That depends on the company and the time of day. Nobody can promise an exact arrival window, but calling as soon as you notice water beats waiting until morning.
Will my homeowners insurance cover the damage?
It depends on your policy and what caused the water. Coverage varies a lot from one policy to the next, so the safest move is to check your own policy or ask your adjuster directly before assuming either way.
Are estimates really free?
Yes. The crew that comes out gives a free estimate before any work starts, and you're not charged for that visit.
Can you handle mold?
We handle water damage calls, not mold jobs. In Texas, mold assessment and remediation covering 25 contiguous square feet or more is licensed work through TDLR, so ask any company you're considering whether it holds that license.
Is my call recorded?
It may be. Calls may be recorded, which is standard practice for getting your details to the right local crew and keeping track of the call.
