Water Damage
Restore-It Blog

Proud home of the Southern Arkansas Muleriders, Magnolia is known as an educational hub thanks to the Southern Arkansas University. Nestled in the heart of Columbia County, the city is close to waterways and sometimes is affected by severe weather, making the homes vulnerable to flooding and water intrusion. As a resident, you probably know that mitigation is key to addressing water damage in your home. But are you aware of the costs and all the factors that affect it?

Whether it comes from floods, an unchecked leak, or even a natural event like heavy rainfall, you will need mitigation once there is a lot of water inside your house. Depending on the case, you might even need restoration. But which company is the best one for you? We firmly believe Restore-It is the answer to this question.

With a holiday around the corner, you plan the perfect little mini-vacation with your family. But there is one little problem: you are afraid of leaving town only to return to a flood in the middle of the living room. And this is no minor worry: depending on the case, your insurance company may deny you coverage.

Picture this: You went on a nice family vacation and returned to find your home flooded. How long was the leak untreated? Days? Perhaps weeks? If the water damage is extensive enough, your home may suffer from structural problems.

You had a flood in your house, so you called us to help you start the water damage mitigation process. While the equipment and our technicians are there, you can't help but wonder how long this will take. And we get it. You want your house back to how it was as soon as possible.

Dear Camden holds a rich history dating back to 1782 and experiences hot and humid summers. It is surrounded by nature, contributing to its wild, rural charm. However, the climate poses challenges for houses, particularly the older ones, as most are not as well-maintained as the McCollum-Chidester House.

You went away with your family for a vacation, and you returned to find the floodgates opened in your living room: water on the floor, wet walls, and a dingy ceiling. As you call us to start the mitigation process, you wonder what must be done to address the damage.

Your house has suffered from water damage, whether from a small unchecked leak that got out of control or an accidental flood, and now you are navigating through the complex process of restoring it. Not understanding how the billing process works can become an extra source of headaches during such a stressful time.

You know you must act fast if you come home and find yourself ankle-deep in water. As you quickly call a reputable water damage restoration company before it's too late, one thought keeps crossing your mind: How much will this cost?

As a concerned homeowner, you find yourself looking for more information on the costs of a water damage restoration project. You may be trying to understand more about the factors that add up to the cost. Or you are just looking for the price of an inspection. Whatever the case, you have questions, and we are here to answer them.

If you're a homeowner experiencing water damage, you're likely hearing words like remediation or mitigation. Although they sound similar, they're pretty different, and the restoration industry loves to use these industry terms to overwhelm customers.

It happens to all of us: you are doing the kitchen dishes when something suddenly gets your attention for just one minute, and you return to find an overflowing sink with the kitchen floor covered in water. As you turn off the tap, the realization that your chore time has multiplied dawns on you. But have you ever wondered what would have happened if you had left it for longer -say an entire day- or you went on vacation when some water supply line broke and came back to your house turned into a knockoff SeaWorld? I exaggerate, of course, but realistically speaking, what can a homeowner do when the damage provoked by water is extensive?
