America Water Damage connects property owners in New York with independent local water damage restoration contractors. We do not carry out the work ourselves. When water gets into a home or a commercial building, we take the details and put the owner in touch with a contractor who serves their area. NOAA's state climate summary for New York records that Superstorm Sandy caused a massive storm surge in New York City in October 2012, with an estimated $19 billion in damages to the city. In 2011 Hurricane Irene brought more than 18 inches of rain to the Catskills, and Tropical Storm Lee followed with more than 12 inches in the Susquehanna basin. The state has seen a large increase in 2-inch extreme precipitation events, and sea level along the coast has risen about 13 inches since 1880. That is the backdrop for water damage in New York.

Why choose us for water damage restoration

Why Use Our Network in Elma, NY

In New York, our role is to shorten the search. We take the address and the details of the loss, then connect the owner with an independent contractor who works in that area and handles that type of damage. We do no restoration work ourselves. New York does not license home improvement contractors statewide. Licensing is local, with programs in New York City and in counties including Nassau, Suffolk and Westchester. Mold is different. The Department of Labor licenses mold assessors and remediation contractors under Article 32 of the Labor Law, and the same party may not perform both the assessment and the remediation on the same property. Ask for the local license and, where mold is involved, the state mold license. Whichever contractor you speak with in Elma, NY, ask for a written scope and proof of insurance before agreeing to anything. Any insurance claim is handled between you and the contractor. We do not set or influence prices. The quote comes from the contractor.

Water Damage Restoration FAQs

Frequently asked questions about water damage restoration

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

Contact Us
Does homeowners insurance cover water damage in Elma, NY?
It depends on what caused the water and on the wording of your policy, so the only reliable answer comes from your policy documents or your insurer. As a general pattern, sudden and accidental losses such as a burst pipe or a failed appliance hose are treated differently from gradual leaks and seepage. Flood is usually handled under a separate flood policy. We cannot tell you what your policy covers, and a restoration contractor in Elma, NY cannot either. What you can do right away is photograph the damage and report the loss to your insurer.
Will the restoration contractor work with my insurance company?
We are not a restoration contractor, so we do not bill insurers or handle claims ourselves. We connect you with an independent local contractor, and any insurance billing is arranged directly between you and that contractor. Many restoration contractors are used to documenting losses for insurers, but practices vary from company to company. Before work starts, ask the contractor how they handle claims, what documentation they provide and what you would owe if the insurer pays less than the invoice.
Is it safe to stay in my home after water damage?
That depends on the source of the water and how much of the home is affected. Clean water from a supply line in one room is a very different situation from sewage or floodwater, which can carry contaminants and should be treated as hazardous. Water near electrical systems, sagging ceilings and soaked structural materials are also reasons for caution. If you have any doubt, keep people and pets out of the affected area until a contractor has inspected it. For anything involving gas or live electricity, call the utility or emergency services first.
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 Elma, NY which credential covers it.
Do you carry out the restoration work yourselves?
No. America Water Damage is a nationwide network that connects property owners with independent local water damage restoration contractors. We do not operate crews, own drying equipment or perform restoration. When you contact us, we take the details of the loss and connect you with a contractor who serves your area. That contractor inspects the property, sets the scope, prices the job and carries out the work under their own credentials and insurance. Any agreement for the work is between you and the contractor.
