Service Overview

How We Approach It

The crew that pulled out the wet drywall is the crew putting the new drywall in. The Xactimate scope from mitigation maps directly to the rebuild scope โ€” no separate negotiation, no scope arguments three weeks later. One contract, one team, one walkthrough at the end.

What's Included

  • Drywall replacement + finish
  • Hardwood, LVP, tile, carpet flooring
  • Cabinetry + trim work
  • Paint + finish work
  • Insurance scope-aligned
  • Single-source contracting

Why the Same Crew Should Handle Mitigation and Reconstruction

The most common pattern that hurts Middletown Township insurance restoration clients is the hand-off problem. The mitigation contractor extracts water and runs drying equipment. Then the homeowner hires a separate general contractor for the rebuild. Three weeks of scope arguments later, the rebuild starts โ€” except the GC's price doesn't match the mitigation scope, the carrier's adjuster has to re-evaluate, and items that should have been documented during demo are now invisible behind new drywall. That sequence turns 4-week projects into 3-month projects.

Our reconstruction is the back-end of the same job. The crew that pulled out the wet drywall in week one is the crew putting the new drywall in week three. The Xactimate scope from mitigation maps directly to the rebuild scope โ€” no separate negotiation. Photos taken during demo (so we know what was behind every wall) inform the rebuild. Specialty trades (plaster matching, hardwood refinishing, custom millwork, tile setters) get coordinated by us, not bounced to the homeowner to find. One contract. One phone number. One walkthrough at the end.

What the Rebuild Typically Covers

  • Drywall replacement and finish โ€” cut to the documented flood line during mitigation, replaced with matching board thickness, taped, mudded, sanded, primed. For older Middletown Township homes with plaster walls, we coordinate plaster repair as a specialty trade.
  • Flooring โ€” hardwood (sand and refinish where dryable, full replacement when needed), LVP / LVT, ceramic and porcelain tile, carpet and pad. We coordinate with material suppliers to source matches for older installations or discontinued patterns.
  • Cabinetry + trim โ€” kitchen + bath cabinets when water reached the toe-kick line, baseboards, casing, crown. Salvageable cabinets get pulled, dried in the shop, and reinstalled where possible. Custom millwork gets coordinated with the original sub if reachable.
  • Paint and finish โ€” primer + two coats matching the original color when documented; whole-wall repaint when partial-wall blends won't read clean. Specialty finishes (Venetian plaster, lime wash, decorative finishes) get specialty-trade coordination.
  • Specialty coordination โ€” plaster repair on older homes, custom millwork matching, designer paint matching for premium-finish units. Sub-trades scoped through us, not handed off to the homeowner.
Process

Our Process

  1. 01

    You Call

    A real person answers 24/7. We get the address, the situation, what equipment to load. Two minutes max on the call.

  2. 02

    We Roll

    Truck heads out within minutes for active losses. Standard target is on-site within 60 minutes anywhere in our Middletown Township footprint.

  3. 03

    Stop the Damage

    Water out, contaminated material removed, drying gear deployed, affected areas sealed off. The first 24 hours decide whether the loss stays small.

  4. 04

    Air movers + dehumidifiers run for 3-5 days. We log moisture readings daily, reposition equipment until every wet substrate hits the dry standard.

  5. 05

    Put It Back

    Same crew that pulled out the wet drywall puts the new drywall back. One contract from first call to final walk-through.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

If you don't see your question, just call or message us.

How much does water damage restoration cost? +

A typical Middletown Township residential water mitigation runs $3,000-$8,000 depending on loss size and material types affected. Reconstruction adds another $5,000-$30,000 depending on scope. Most jobs are insurance-billed after deductible. We give a realistic estimate after the on-site assessment, not a guess on the phone.

What is the difference between water damage and flood damage? +

Water damage is sudden and accidental โ€” pipe burst, appliance failure, storm intrusion through a damaged roof. Flood damage is rising surface water from outside the structure. Standard homeowners insurance covers water damage. Flood requires separate NFIP flood insurance. We document the source clearly so the right policy pays the claim.

Are you open weekends and holidays? +

Emergency dispatch is 24/7/365 including all holidays. Reconstruction work and consultations follow business hours but we can adjust for client schedules.

How do you make sure mold does not come back? +

Mold prevention happens during drying, not after. We hold the structure under controlled airflow until moisture meters confirm wood, drywall, and substrate are back inside the manufacturer-approved dry range. Anything porous that absorbed contaminated water comes out. Surfaces receive a registered antimicrobial before reconstruction. We also pull access panels and inspect HVAC ductwork if water tracked into the system.

Will my floors and walls have to come out? +

Often less than people expect. Category-1 (clean supply-line) water that we reach inside 24-48 hours can usually be dried in place. Category-3 (sewage, river, ground intrusion) is different โ€” IICRC S500 protocol requires removing porous materials those waters contacted. We cut to a documented flood line and replace what comes out.

How long does drying take after a water loss? +

Three to five days for a typical residential water loss. Hardwood floors and dense materials can take longer โ€” sometimes 7-10 days. We monitor with calibrated moisture meters daily and only stop drying when readings return to dry-standard moisture content for the materials in your home.

Do you work directly with my insurance company? +

Yes, with your authorization. We work with NJM, State Farm, Allstate, Liberty Mutual, Travelers, Progressive, and most other carriers serving NJ. Get the claim number from your carrier first if you can; with that we can talk to your adjuster directly and bill the carrier rather than you.
