Our Proven 5-Step Water Damage Process

Shut Off the Supply and Make It Safe

We close the main or the valve behind the fixture, cut power to wet rooms and lift furniture off the carpet. If an old water heater has split, we shut off its gas or its breaker too.

Pull the Water Off the Slab

Our extraction equipment draws the water out of your carpet and off the concrete. Soaked pad comes up, and baseboards come off so the water trapped behind them can drain and dry.

Trace the Water Along the Walls

In a ranch house, water travels under flooring and along the bottom of the walls into rooms that look dry. We test every wall that shares a floor with the leak and mark what is wet. Kitchen and bath cabinets get checked from inside, behind the kick plate, where water collects unseen.

Dry and Measure Every Day

Dehumidifiers and air movers run until your concrete, framing and drywall test dry. We log the readings daily so you and your adjuster can follow the progress.

Restore the Rooms

We replace the cut drywall, baseboards, flooring and paint, matching what was there so you cannot tell where the repair begins.

The plumbing repair is usually treated separately from the water damage it caused. We keep our scope apart from your plumber's invoice so each one lands in the right place on the claim.

Frequently Asked Questions — Water Damage in Live Oak

Water came out of the water heater closet. What should I do first? +

Close the cold supply valve on top of the tank, switch off its gas valve or breaker, and call us. A split tank keeps leaking until the supply is closed, and the water usually runs under the wall into the next room.

Can you save carpet that got wet? +

Sometimes. Carpet soaked by clean water from a supply line can often be dried and kept, though the pad underneath almost always comes out. Carpet soaked by a toilet or drain backup is removed. We tell you which you have before we pull anything.

How do I know if the leak is under my slab? +

Look for a warm spot on the floor, a water bill that climbs for no reason, the sound of running water with everything off, or damp carpet with no source nearby. A plumber confirms the leak, and we dry your house around it.

Do you also work in Selma, Converse and Universal City? +

Yes. Our crews cover Live Oak and the neighboring cities on the northeast side of the metro, at any hour, with the same phone number. That includes Schertz, Cibolo and Garden Ridge.
