About America Water Damage

Connecting You with Water Damage Restoration Contractors in Central, LA

America Water Damage is a nationwide network, and in Louisiana that means one thing: connecting people who have water in their property with independent restoration contractors near them. The contractor does the drying and the repairs. We make the introduction and explain what to expect. NOAA's state climate summary says hurricanes strike Louisiana an average of once every three years. The August 2016 flood brought 20 to more than 30 inches of rain, exceeded 500-year rainfall amounts in some locations and caused $10 billion in damages. The number of 4-inch extreme precipitation events has generally been above average since 1980. The state has lost almost 2,000 square miles of land since the 1930s, and annual precipitation ranges from 50 to 70 inches. For owners in Central, LA and across Louisiana, that record is a reason to act early when water appears. Reach out at any time and we will connect you with a nearby restoration contractor. They handle the inspection, the drying plan and the repairs directly with you.

Why choose us for water damage restoration

Why Use Our Network in Central, LA

When a request comes in from Louisiana, we match it by location and by the type of loss, then connect the owner with an independent restoration contractor who serves that area. The contractor, not America Water Damage, inspects the property and proposes the work. Louisiana regulates this work through the State Licensing Board for Contractors. The board registers home improvement contractors for residential projects valued at $7,500 or more, and it issues a separate mold remediation license for mold projects above that value. Where a water loss has led to mold, ask for both numbers and verify them with the board. For a loss in Central, LA, confirm those details yourself before signing, along with current liability insurance. How an insurance claim is billed is settled between you and the contractor. Pricing is theirs too. We set no prices and take no part in the quote.

Water Damage Restoration FAQs

Frequently asked questions about water damage restoration

Questions Central, LA homeowners and businesses ask most about water damage restoration — and clear, honest answers.

Contact Us
How quickly should I act after finding water damage?
As soon as you find it. Water keeps moving through flooring, drywall and wall cavities for as long as it is present, so the amount of damage is largely a function of how long materials stay wet. The US Environmental Protection Agency advises drying water-damaged areas and items within 24 to 48 hours to prevent mold growth. Acting early also means the loss is documented sooner, which helps if an insurance claim follows. You can contact us at any hour and we will connect you with a local contractor.
How soon can mold start after water damage?
Sooner than most people expect. The US Environmental Protection Agency says it is important to dry water-damaged areas and items within 24 to 48 hours to prevent mold growth. Warm, humid conditions and porous materials such as drywall, carpet pad and insulation make growth more likely. The EPA also suggests that moldy areas larger than about 10 square feet, or mold that follows extensive water damage, are a reason to consult a professional. Some states license mold work separately, so ask any contractor in Central, LA which credential covers it.
What are the categories of water damage?
The restoration industry commonly sorts water into three categories by contamination. Category 1 is clean water from a sanitary source such as a supply line. Category 2 is water with significant contamination, for example from a washing machine or dishwasher discharge. Category 3 is grossly contaminated water such as sewage or floodwater. The category matters because it changes what can be cleaned and kept and what has to be removed. Clean water can also degrade into a worse category the longer it sits, which is one more reason to act early.
What can be saved and what has to be removed?
It depends mainly on the material and on how contaminated the water was. Hard, non-porous surfaces can usually be cleaned and dried. Porous materials such as carpet pad, insulation and drywall are harder to save, and after contact with sewage or floodwater they generally have to be removed. Solid wood and structural framing can often be dried in place if the work starts early. A contractor should tell you what they plan to remove and why before they do it, and you can ask for that in writing.
What should I check before hiring a restoration contractor?
Check the credential that applies where you live, because the rules differ by state. Some states license contractors or require registration, some leave it to cities and counties, and a few license mold work separately. Ask for the license or registration number and verify it with the issuing body. Ask for proof of general liability insurance and, if they have employees, workers compensation cover. Ask for a written scope of work before anything is removed. Many restoration firms also hold IICRC certification, which you can ask to see.
