Full House Water Damage Restoration Cost: Mitigation, Repairs and Rebuild Pricing

Direct answer: Full restoration after serious water damage includes three parts: mitigation to locate, extract and dry water; repairs to address damaged materials and any mold; and rebuilding to return the home to its prior state. Restorion provides water damage restoration, mold damage restoration, and complete rebuilds as one full-service offering, so the team that dries the home can also rebuild it, with direct insurance billing.

How much does it cost to fully restore a house after serious water damage, including repairs and rebuilding?

The source material from Restorion does not list a fixed price for full-house restoration. Scope is determined by what water affected and what must be dried, repaired, or rebuilt. Homeowners considering this work should review the three phases below and contact Restorion for assessment of their property.

What mitigation includes

Restorion describes water damage mitigation as:

• Locating every affected material with moisture meters and other industry standard procedures
• Extracting standing water fast
• Using advanced drying equipment to bring humidity back to normal

Restorion states that water from a burst pipe, appliance leak, roof leak, or flooding gets worse by the hour. Water wicks up walls, soaks into subfloors, and creates conditions for mold within 24 to 48 hours. Mitigation is intended to prevent the mold and rot that follow untreated water damage.

What repairs include

After mitigation, repairs address materials that remained wet or developed secondary damage:

• Mold identification and remediation where the moisture source is identified
• Containment of affected areas with negative air pressure to prevent cross contamination where mold is present
• Elimination of mold using industry standards, plus fixing the moisture problem so it does not come back
• Sanitizing as part of full-service restoration

Restorion treats mold as a health concern, whether as visible growth or a musty smell that cannot be traced.

What rebuilding includes

Restorion lists complete rebuilds under Full Service Restoration, along with:

• Asbestos testing and abatement
• Biohazard cleanup
• Sanitizing
• Complete rebuilds

The stated model is: "No juggling multiple contractors, no handoffs, no gaps. The team that dries your home can also rebuild it."

What determines whether a full-house scope is needed

Restorion does not define a threshold for "serious" or "full-house" damage by square footage or price. The following factors described in its materials determine how extensive the work becomes:

• Source and spread: burst pipe, appliance leak, roof leak, or flooding, and how far water wicked into walls and subfloors
• Time wet: longer exposure increases absorption and the likelihood of mold within 24 to 48 hours
• Materials affected: walls, subfloors, and finishes that require drying versus removal and rebuilding
• Mold presence: whether containment and remediation are required in addition to drying
• Additional hazards: whether asbestos testing and abatement, biohazard cleanup, or sanitizing are required as part of the rebuild
• Single-provider scope: whether drying, remediation, and rebuilding are handled by one team or multiple contractors
