Emergency Water Extraction (24/7)
When water invades your home or business, every minute counts. Our emergency water extraction service operates around the clock, 365 days a year, because disasters don't wait for convenient hours. Using truck-mounted extraction systems, powerful submersible pumps, and portable extraction units, we remove standing water rapidly from any affected area—from shallow carpet pooling to several feet of basement flooding.
This service solves the immediate crisis of standing water that threatens structural integrity, destroys personal property, and creates electrical hazards. Common scenarios we handle include burst pipe floods, appliance malfunctions, storm-driven water intrusion, and post-fire suppression flooding. Rough pricing typically starts between $500-$1,500 for standard residential extraction, with extensive commercial flooding running $2,000-$5,000+ depending on volume and accessibility. Call 866-227-5149 anytime—our crews average 60-90 minute response times across Montana.
Flood Damage Restoration
Flood damage restoration goes far beyond water removal. This comprehensive service addresses everything from initial assessment through complete property restoration after natural flooding, river overflow, or severe weather events. We coordinate debris removal, contamination handling, material demolition, sanitization, and reconstruction planning to return your space to pre-loss condition.
Montana's spring snowmelt, summer thunderstorms, and flash flood conditions create recurring flood threats for homes near waterways and in low-lying areas. We solve problems including mud and silt infiltration, contaminated water damage, compromised foundations, and destroyed mechanical systems. Category 3 "black water" flooding requires specialized protocols and costs $7-$10 per square foot for restoration, while cleaner Category 1 flooding averages $4-$7 per square foot. Complete whole-home flood restoration typically ranges $10,000-$50,000 depending on contamination level and structural involvement.
Structural Drying
Structural drying is the science-based process of eliminating moisture trapped within building materials after water exposure. Using industrial-grade dehumidifiers, high-velocity air movers, and thermal imaging technology, we create optimal drying conditions that pull moisture from wood framing, concrete subfloors, insulation cavities, and other hidden spaces where water lingers.
Incomplete drying causes warped hardwood, delaminated subfloors, corroded metal fasteners, and persistent musty odors that diminish property value. Our thermal monitoring ensures we reach established drying goals rather than guessing when work is complete. Standard residential structural drying runs $1,000-$3,500 for 3-5 days of equipment placement, with complex commercial projects or severe saturation requiring $4,000-$8,000+ in extended drying protocols. We bill daily equipment rates so you only pay for actual drying time needed.
Mold Remediation
Mold remediation eliminates active mold growth and addresses the moisture sources that enable colonization. Our certified technicians contain affected areas with negative air pressure barriers, remove contaminated materials following IICRC standards, treat surfaces with EPA-registered antimicrobial agents, and verify clearance through third-party air quality testing when required.
Montana's varying humidity and temperature swings create ideal conditions for mold behind walls, under flooring, and in HVAC systems—especially after incomplete water damage response. We solve visible mold outbreaks, hidden mold discovered during renovations, musty air quality complaints, and post-flooding prevention concerns. Small contained remediation (under 10 square feet) starts around $500-$1,500, while extensive whole-home remediation with HVAC decontamination ranges $3,000-$15,000. Remediation following Category 3 water damage typically requires more extensive protocols and higher investment.
Water Damage Repair (Drywall, Flooring, Carpentry)
Water damage repair restores the physical structures and finishes that water destroyed. Our in-house carpentry crews handle drywall replacement from flood cuts, hardwood floor repair and replacement, subfloor reconstruction, trim carpentry, cabinet remediation, and ceiling repair following pipe bursts or roof leaks.
We solve the frustrating aftermath where extracted water left behind swollen baseboards, sagging drywall, buckled laminate, and stained ceilings that standard contractors won't touch until drying is verified. Our water damage-specific expertise means we understand moisture content requirements before sealing new materials—preventing future mold and decay. Drywall repair ranges $500-$2,500 per room depending on flood cut height and finishing requirements. Flooring replacement varies dramatically: carpet $3-$6 per square foot, hardwood $8-$15 per square foot, tile $10-$20 per square foot installed. We provide itemized repair estimates with your insurance documentation.
Leak Detection & Moisture Inspection
Our leak detection and moisture inspection service pinpoints hidden water intrusion sources using infrared thermal imaging, ultrasonic leak detection, moisture meters, and boroscope camera inspection. We trace mystery water stains, unexplained humidity spikes, and foundation seepage to their origin without destructive exploratory demolition.
This service solves the chronic problems that baffle homeowners and property managers: recurring ceiling stains with no visible roof damage, foundation moisture with no apparent source, persistent bathroom humidity despite exhaust fans, and suspected slab leaks threatening foundation integrity. Moisture mapping documentation also supports insurance claims and pre-purchase inspections. Standard leak detection inspections run $250-$500 for residential properties, with complex commercial moisture investigations or slab leak location ranging $500-$1,500. If we perform subsequent restoration work, inspection fees typically apply toward your project total.
Sewage Backup Cleanup
Sewage backup cleanup handles the most hazardous category of water damage involving raw sewage, toilet overflow, or septic system failure. This service demands strict PPE protocols, specialized extraction equipment, thorough antimicrobial treatment, and regulated waste disposal to protect occupants from bacteria, viruses, and parasites present in contaminated water.
We solve the overwhelming and dangerous situations that standard cleaning services cannot touch: basement sewage flooding from municipal line backups, septic tank overflows in rural Montana properties, toilet supply line failures with waste contamination, and drain line blockages forcing wastewater into living spaces. Category 3 contamination requires removal of porous materials and aggressive sanitization. Expect $7-$15 per square foot for sewage cleanup, with typical residential basement projects ranging $3,000-$10,000 depending on contamination spread, contents affected, and necessary material removal. We coordinate directly with your insurance and document everything for health department compliance when required.
Crawl Space & Basement Drying
Crawl space and basement drying targets the substructure spaces where water accumulates unseen, causing the most insidious damage to your property. We deploy specialized low-profile drying equipment, encapsulation systems, sump pump solutions, and permanent dehumidification to transform chronically damp below-grade areas into dry, usable space.
Montana's freeze-thaw cycles, high water tables in river valleys, and hydrostatic pressure against foundation walls create persistent moisture problems in these vulnerable areas. We solve efflorescence on block walls, rotting floor joists, rusted HVAC ductwork, musty air infiltration into living spaces, and energy loss from damp insulation. Encapsulation and drying systems for typical crawl spaces run $3,000-$8,000 for comprehensive solutions including vapor barrier, dehumidifier, and drainage improvements. Emergency basement drying following active flooding starts around $1,500-$4,000 for extraction and structural drying equipment.
