Mold growth takes hold in water-damaged materials in as little as 24 hours. It spreads quickly, carried by airborne spores that settle behind walls, overhead in ceilings and underneath flooring. Our restoration services include industry-certified mold removal and remediation.

Using advanced equipment, we identify exactly where mold is growing and how far it’s spread. We eliminate all fungal growth with specialized products and techniques. Our services include toxic black mold removal and remediation.

WHAT CUSTOMERS SAY ABOUT US

I had some water damage occur in my kitchen; Floors were ruined, drywall was ruined, and cabinets were ruined. I put in a claim with my insurance, and they sent out Carlos and Jerry.I had the best experience with these Carlos and Jerry. They came in and looked lover all the affected area that had water damage. I thought I would be getting an estimate, but they were able to rip up the wet floors and remove the wet walls within the same day.We did run into an issue where Serviced Master found what was presumed to be asbestos tile in the affected areas. I felt like it was the end of the world, because we know all know it's crazy expensive to get that taken care of; But Service Masters work with a 3rd party company - Bluestone Environmental, Inc, who were able to come out and confirm, that it was asbestos. and they were able to set up times and dates, and a time frame of when things could get rolling with the rest of the removal.Carlos and Jerry were so nice, and explained everything that had to happen, down to a "T". They answered all of our questions, let us know what the next steps would be and gave us a heads-up that we would be getting notified about moving our stuff out of the house to that they could work. Carlos and Jerry set up dehumidifiers and fans to dry up all the water (over a span of 4 days). They took away all the destroyed materials, which was lovely, because it wasn't sitting in our driveway. And they sprayed the affected areas with a liquid to prevent mold from growing.Like I said, my boyfriend and I loved the experience we had with them, and we would call upon this team, heaven forbid, we ever needed a water mitigation team again.

This is the second time I've used ServiceMaster. I needed the walls and ceiling in my kitchen to be removed due to a water leak from the unit above me. They were super cautious of my furniture and covered everything with plastic. I hired them to do my reconstruction as well and am extremely happy with my new cabinets!

Gold Coast Weather Forecast

What is the average cost of water damage restoration in Gold Coast?

Water damage restoration in Gold Coast costs between $3,000 and $8,000. An estimate is usually determined by the total square footage of water-damaged areas in a property.

What can add to the cost of restoring a water-damaged property?

The final cost can be higher than average if: damage is the result of Category 3 water; materials were exposed to water for more than 24 hours; structural damage is extensive; and contents and belongings are heavily water-damaged.

What can I do before your water damage teams arrive?

If you can do so safely, turn off the electricity coming into the water-damaged areas. Document the damage to interiors and belongings with photos and videos. Don’t throw away items that can’t be saved until after the adjuster’s inspection.

Will homeowners insurance cover my property’s water damage?

The short answer is yes. As long as the damage wasn’t the result of neglect or faulty installation, you should be covered. However, homeowners insurance doesn’t cover natural flooding. Check with your agent, and ask about purchasing protection through the National Flood Insurance Program.
