We come out, check the damage, and explain what we found. You get a clear price before any work starts.
$0 upfront
You pay nothing to get us started. Damage spreads fast, so our first job is stopping it, not collecting a deposit.
Insurance

We start. We finish.
The crew that dries it out is the crew that rebuilds it. One company and one phone number, start to finish.

Property Restoration Services in Newark
Water, fire, mold, and storm damage, for homes and businesses. Our Newark team handles the cleanup and the rebuild.
Not sure what kind of damage you have? Call (862) 415-0506 and describe it.
Water damage
Water damage is common in Newark because heavy rain overloads old sewers and floods basements, and hard freezes split pipes in older buildings. Basement water can ruin drywall, boilers, and stored belongings. We extract all the water, dry the subfloor, and repair what got wet.
Water damage restoration
Fire and smoke
Space heaters, cooking, and old wiring set off fires in Newark's older homes and flats in the Ironbound, Vailsburg, and Roseville, and smoke travels to every unit. We clean the soot from every surface, work on the smell, and rebuild what burned.
Fire damage restoration
Mold
Mold is common in Newark because a basement flood or a leaking pipe keeps walls and framing wet in older buildings. A musty basement smell is the usual sign. We find where it started, get rid of the mold, and dry what it touched.
Mold remediation
Storm damage
Storm damage is common in Newark because nor'easters, heavy summer thunderstorms, and tropical storm remnants hit the region. Wind lifts shingles and the rain gets in. We deal with the water first, dry the soaked rooms, and rebuild the damaged roof and walls.
Storm damage repair
Commercial
Warehouses, restaurants, and apartment houses in the Ironbound and near downtown are joined by shared walls and pipes, so a leak in one unit can reach another. The dry-out, cleanup, and rebuild are covered by our own crew.
Commercial restoration
Reconstruction
Everything we cut out is put back once the area is dry. The same crew does the rebuild and the paint is matched. You will not bring in someone new halfway through.

Our 3-Step Damage Restoration Process
Every job follows our three-step damage restoration process.
Stop it
When we arrive, we walk through the damage with you and explain what we find. Then we stop it from spreading and take photos for your insurance.
Dry it
We dry out the walls, floors, and air, and take moisture readings to make sure it worked. Then we clean and sanitize the area.
Rebuild it
We repair or replace what had to come out, like drywall, flooring, and cabinets. You won't need to hire a second contractor.
While you wait
- Stay safe. Keep out of standing water near outlets and out of smoky rooms.
- Take photos of the damage before anything is moved or thrown out.
- Move valuables, papers, and medicine to a dry room.

Damage We See Most in Newark
Basement floods, cold snaps, and older buildings drive the jobs our crew sees across the Newark area.
Water
24 hours
after a flood, when mold can start growing, per UGA Extension
Basement flood
UGA Extension reports that mold can start growing within 24 hours after a flood. A wet basement in the Ironbound, Forest Hill, or Weequahic is worth drying out right away. Call us the first time you see water. Call us if you are not sure what you are looking at.

250 gallons
a day, at most, from a 1/8th inch crack in a pipe, per IBHS
Frozen pipes
A crack that small can soak a house or apartment in Vailsburg, Roseville, or East Orange before it shows. Pipes in unheated spaces like attics, crawl spaces, and garages freeze first, and so do those in kitchen cabinets. When it is safe, shut the water off to that part of the house.

Older buildings
Many Newark houses and apartment buildings in Forest Hill, Weequahic, and Bloomfield are older, with old drain lines and plaster walls. New work is matched to the building as it already stands. We rebuild what we cut out so the rooms look like they did before.

Usually it helps to close the valve to that area at once, if it is safe. And photograph the damage, call us, and we manage the drying and repairs.
