Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
Mitigation (extraction and drying) typically runs $3 to $7.50 per sq ft, depending on water category. Repair and rebuild costs are separate and often range from $20 to $37 per sq ft for basic scopes including drywall, flooring, and trim replacement. This provides a good baseline for initial project scoping.
Basic jobs ($150–$1,000) involve minor issues like fixing leaks or replacing a few shingles, usually with clean water and minimal repairs. Mid-range jobs ($2,000–$5,000) cover general water damage remediation and moderate repairs. Premium jobs ($6,270–$12,750) are for extensive repairs and restoration due to significant water damage.
The category of water (clean, grey, or black) significantly impacts costs. Clean water is the least expensive to mitigate, while black water (sewage) requires more intensive and costly sanitization and removal procedures due to health risks.
If water damage has led to or is likely to lead to mold growth, mold remediation should be included as a separate, specialized service in the quote. This accounts for the specific equipment, protocols, and certifications often required for effective mold removal and prevention.
Hidden costs can include unexpected structural damage, mold growth in unseen areas, specialized drying for intricate building materials, and extended drying times due to high humidity. Always factor in a contingency for these unforeseen elements.
