Water Damage Cleanup in Frankton

When a pipe or an appliance line lets go in your home in Frankton, we'll pull the water out and dry the house to a measured standard.

Homes and Plumbing

Most houses in Frankton went up between the 1940s and the 1960s. In houses built between the 1900s and the 1950s, supply lines were likely galvanized steel or early copper, and those lines corrode as they age.

We cover every part of Frankton, including the Madison Street Corridor and the streets around Frankton Community Library and Frankton Christian Church. Nearby, we also take water damage calls from Anderson, Elwood, Windfall and Summitville.

Expert Water Damage Restoration for Frankton Homeowners

Under sink leaks hide behind the cabinet door. A slow drip from a shutoff valve or a drain trap soaks the cabinet floor and works into the subfloor beneath it. Particleboard swells quickly once it's wet, so the kitchen or bathroom in your Frankton home can look fine while the cabinet base is soaked. Frankton Water Restoration checks the cabinet base and the wall behind it with meters before anything comes apart.

Drying time on your job comes from the readings. Most rooms with clean water dry in three to five days, and dense materials like hardwood and plaster can take longer. The crew checks the readings every day in your Frankton home and moves equipment where the numbers lag, so the log shows the reason for any extra day.

A technician comes back every day while the equipment runs in your Frankton home. The same spots get read with the same meter, so the numbers can be compared from one day to the next. Equipment moves to the rooms that are drying slowest. Most clean water jobs finish drying in three to five days, and Frankton Water Restoration explains the reason if yours runs longer.

Where the water came from and when it started are the first questions an insurance company tends to ask. Frankton Water Restoration photographs the source in your Frankton home, notes when the crew arrived and logs the readings from the first day. You keep that record and decide with your insurance company how to use it, and the crew walks you through any part you want explained.

Reach Frankton Water Restoration at (765) 508-0821 any hour for water damage in Frankton. Tell the person who answers what happened and where the water is, and you'll hear what to do about the water while the crew plans the extraction. The photo report begins on the first visit, and the readings are yours to keep.

Our Process

How Frankton Water Restoration Handles Water Damage Restoration

We follow these steps in order on every Frankton job.

1

The First Call

You describe where the water is coming from in your Frankton home and which rooms it has reached. Frankton Water Restoration talks you through shutting off the water and power safely, and tells you what to leave in place so the crew can photograph it.

2

Coordinating With Your Plumber

When a pipe or fitting fails in your Frankton home, the crew opens the access your plumber needs and keeps the extraction and drying going around the repair. Readings get retaken once the line is back in service.

3

Photo Report

Photos, readings and the scope go into a photo report you keep. The crew walks you through it, so you can decide with your insurance company, and you sign off on the scope before any removal starts.

4

Extraction and Containment

Pumps and extraction tools remove the standing water. Plastic containment goes up where the water is contaminated, soaked pad and insulation get bagged for disposal, and an EPA registered antimicrobial goes on the surfaces that stay.

5

Daily Monitoring

A technician comes back every day while the equipment runs, reads the same marked spots and moves equipment to the slowest areas. You hear what changed and how many days of drying are likely left.

Common Questions

Water Damage Restoration FAQ

Questions Frankton homeowners ask us about water damage restoration.

The call takes a few minutes. You'll be asked where the water is, what it's coming from and whether it's still running. Frankton Water Restoration dispatches a crew within 2 hours, and the truck comes loaded with pumps, dehumidifiers and moisture meters. When the crew gets there, it checks for electrical hazards, stops the source if it can and starts pulling out the water.
It usually does, because contaminated water adds steps to the job. The crew sets up containment, wears protective gear, removes porous materials that soaked up the water and disposes of them. Clean water from a supply line can often be dried in place with less removal. Category depends on the source and on how long the water sat, so Frankton Water Restoration records both for your Frankton home before writing the scope.
Standard homeowners policies typically cover sudden and accidental water damage, such as a burst pipe or a failed appliance. They usually exclude flooding from rising surface water, which needs a separate flood policy such as NFIP, and sewer or drain backup often needs an added endorsement. Your policy and your adjuster decide what applies. Frankton Water Restoration records where the water came from in your Frankton home, so the facts are clear when you talk with your agent.
Under the S500, class describes how much of the structure is wet. Class 2 means a large amount of water that has reached a whole room, wetting the carpet and pad and wicking up the walls. Class 3 means the most water, often coming from above and saturating the ceiling and walls. Class 1 is a small area, and Class 4 covers dense materials like hardwood and plaster. Frankton Water Restoration sets the class from moisture readings in your Frankton home.
A technician returns each day the equipment runs to take readings and adjust the setup. If something changes between visits, such as a tripped breaker or a unit that stops running, call Frankton Water Restoration at (765) 508-0821 and you'll hear what to do. Each visit adds readings to your log, so you can watch your Frankton home move toward the dry numbers.
Gray water is Category 2, which means water with some contamination. Typical sources include dishwasher discharge, washing machine overflow, sump pump failure and toilet bowl overflow. Gray water can worsen to Category 3 if it sits, and porous materials like carpet pad usually come out while hard surfaces get cleaned. Frankton Water Restoration identifies the category for your Frankton home at the start and writes it into the scope.
Mold coverage varies from policy to policy. Some limit it or exclude it, and others cover it only when it results from a covered water loss. Read the mold section of your policy or ask your agent, and tell the adjuster early if you see growth. Frankton Water Restoration photographs any mold in your Frankton home and lists the mold work apart from the water work, which keeps the paperwork clear.
Start with safety. If water is near outlets or the panel, shut off power to those circuits from a dry spot. If the water came from a sewer line, keep people and pets away from it. Shut off the main water valve if you can reach it. Then move small items off wet floors and leave the rest in place so the crew can photograph it for your report.
The crew makes small openings near the baseboard or removes a thin strip of drywall along the floor, then pushes dry air through the stud bay with air movers and hoses made for that purpose. Meters read the framing and the back of the drywall each day to confirm the cavity is drying. When the water was contaminated, or the readings stall, the wall has to open further. Frankton Water Restoration explains which case applies in your Frankton home.
Yes. Once the readings show your Frankton home is dry, Frankton Water Restoration can handle the drywall, insulation, flooring, trim and paint. The repair scope gets written from what came out during the drying, and you approve it in writing before work starts. The drying readings and photos stay in your file, so the repairs are tied to a documented, dry structure.
