Water Damage Mitigation FAQs
What’s the difference between water mitigation and restoration?
Mitigation is about stopping damage and stabilizing the structure. Restoration comes next—rebuilding or replacing damaged materials. ProTech restoration provides restoration services after a water damage.
How long does the drying process take?
Most properties are dry within 3–5 days, but it depends on the material types, extent of saturation, and weather conditions.
How quickly should water mitigation begin after a flood or leak?
Ideally within the first 24–48 hours. The sooner our team starts, the better we can limit structural damage and mold risk.

Review by Amy Jachna

"Had a great experience working with Marshall when we had an emergency leak at my mom’s house. He immediately started working to salvage what we could. I felt like he absolutely understood the urgency, and treated my mom like his own! He and the rest of the team were super easy to work with and answered our (many) questions along the way. They were very transparent about the process which was extremely helpful as this was our first time with this kind of issue in 30+ years of owning the house. We so appreciate ProTech for aiding us during our time of need."

"My experience with ProTech was wonderful from the first visit thru the last. Ben did a great job of evaluating the work that needed to be done and explaining everything to me. Frank and Sergio were great to work with because they were pleasant AND they were so very careful about everything they did. All in all, I give the ProTech team an A+!"
Review by Kelsey Swyter

"I had a pipe burst and subsequent leakage into my basement. At first I thought that we maybe stopped it in time since we could not see obvious damage but Marshall at ProTech said it would be a good idea to check it out anyway and came out within a couple of days. I’m so glad he did since there was more damage than we anticipated. Marshall explained the damage thoroughly using his imaging techniques and provided a quote within the day. Pricing was good and our insurance accepted the proposal immediately. The ProTech team was able to do the water damage mitigation about a week after the incident and on a Saturday no less. Everything was done super quickly and professionally. While I do not want to deal with any more water damage, the repairs using ProTech were painless. I would recommend this company and especially Marshall to anyone in the same situation."

"After a pipe burst in our basement, we called ProTech at 2 AM. They were here within 45 minutes and immediately got to work. Thanks to them, we avoided major mold issues. Honest, reliable, and fast—can’t thank them enough."
