What's included
What our 24-hour water restoration near me includes
Every job starts with a full inspection and a written scope. Here is what is covered in a standard 24-hour water restoration near me in Toluca Lake, California call, and what we quote separately if your loss needs it.
✓
Emergency inspection and moisture mapping
We map the full extent of the water loss using a moisture meter, thermal imaging camera, and hygrometer. This takes 20 to 30 minutes and tells us exactly which walls, floors, and cavities are wet. You get a written scope before we start drying.
✓
Water extraction and removal
Standing water is extracted with truck-mounted and portable units. We extract from carpet, hardwood, tile, and concrete. For a typical burst pipe or toilet overflow, extraction takes one to three hours. Sewage backup gets an antimicrobial solution treatment first.
✓
Structural drying with daily monitoring
We set air movers and dehumidifiers based on the IICRC drying formula for your square footage and materials. Desiccant dehumidifiers handle crawl spaces and closets. We return every day to log moisture readings until your structure hits dry standard.
✓
Antimicrobial treatment and odor control
Category 2 and Category 3 water get treated with antimicrobial solution to stop mold and bacteria. If odors linger, we use an ozone generator after drying is complete. HEPA vacuum filtration runs during the final cleanup to capture fine debris.
✓
Insurance documentation package
You get moisture logs, thermal images, before-and-after photos, and an Xactimate line-item estimate. This is the same format your adjuster uses, which speeds up the claim. We can also bill your carrier directly so you are not fronting the full cost.
How it works
What to expect from call to dry
01
Call and dispatch
You call (833) 321-7153 and speak to a live dispatcher, not a voicemail. We ask three questions: what is leaking, where is the water, and is the power safe. Within minutes a truck is rolling with extraction units and drying gear. You get a text with the technician's name and ETA.
02
Inspection and moisture mapping
On arrival we shut off the water if you have not already, then map the loss with a moisture meter, thermal imaging camera, and hygrometer. We check the ceiling, baseboards, and crawl space because water travels. This survey takes 20 to 30 minutes and tells us exactly how far the damage reaches.
03
Water extraction
Standing water comes out first using truck-mounted and portable water extraction units. For a typical toilet overflow or burst pipe, extraction takes one to three hours. Sewage backup and Category 3 water get an antimicrobial solution treatment before we move to drying.
04
Structural drying
We set air movers and dehumidifiers based on the IICRC drying formula, not guesswork. Desiccant dehumidifiers handle tight spaces like crawl spaces and closets. You will hear the equipment running for three to five days, and we return daily to log moisture readings until everything hits dry standard.
05
Final walkthrough and documentation
Once readings confirm dry standard, we remove equipment, do a final HEPA vacuum, and walk the job with you. You get a complete documentation package: moisture logs, photos, and an Xactimate estimate for your insurance claim. If any drywall or insulation needs replacement, we scope that separately.
Tools & methods
Tools and methods we use on every job
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
Thermal imaging camera
Finds hidden moisture behind walls, under floors, and in ceiling cavities without cutting into drywall. We use it during the initial inspection and again before we clear the job.
Moisture meter and hygrometer
Measures moisture content in wood, drywall, and concrete, and tracks relative humidity in the air. We log readings daily to prove the structure is drying on schedule.
Dri-Eaz and Phoenix air movers
High-velocity air movers evaporate moisture from surfaces so dehumidifiers can pull it out of the air. We position them based on the IICRC drying formula, not guesswork.
Desiccant dehumidifiers
Pull moisture from tight, cool spaces like crawl spaces and closets where refrigerant dehumidifiers lose efficiency. Essential for Toluca Lake homes with pier-and-beam foundations.
Truck-mounted water extraction unit
Removes hundreds of gallons of standing water fast from carpet, hardwood, and concrete. This is the first piece of equipment running when we arrive on a flood call.
Boroscope inspection camera
Lets us see inside wall cavities and under cabinets without demolition. We use it to confirm the extent of a leak before we write the scope.
HEPA vacuum and ozone generator
HEPA filtration captures fine mold spores and debris during final cleanup. Ozone generators neutralize smoke and musty odors after the structure is dry.
Real results

Burst pipe in a 1920s bungalow

After
We contained the area, removed 12 inches of contaminated drywall, extracted the water, and treated every surface with antimicrobial solution. Moisture readings hit dry standard in five days. Only the lower drywall needed replacement.
