Signs to look for

When to call us for commercial water removal

For the written restoration scope, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

The space cannot be occupied safely

For the written restoration scope, wet floors in public areas are a slip and injury exposure the moment you open the doors. For the written restoration scope, circuits serving a impacted area stay off until an electrician clears them.

Water reached a mechanical room or an electrical room

For the written restoration scope, building systems live there, and a wet panel or boiler can take the whole property offline.

Water has entered a common area or another tenant space

For the written restoration scope, once water crosses a demising wall there is a second occupant, a second policy and commonly a liability question.

Drop ceiling tiles are sagging, stained or dripping

From the first moisture reading, a saturated tile can hold surprising weight above a workspace.

Your building engineer found water above a ceiling or inside a chase

From the first moisture reading, water in a chase or plenum travels along pipes and conduit into rooms that look untouched.

The building smells musty when it opens in the morning

As our specialists document the loss, closed buildings concentrate whatever is evaporating overnight. As our specialists document the loss, staff and customers notice it before any meter does, and it in many cases means a wet cavity somewhere.

What happens

How we handle commercial water removal

Our restoration specialists adjust the work to the areas and materials involved, the measured reach of the water, and the materials that can be saved.

One point of contact and a documented chain of approval

From the first moisture reading, commercial buildings have owners, property management and occupants. During our assessment, we confirm who signs the work authorization and who receives updates, in writing, on day one.

Certificate of insurance and vendor onboarding paperwork

During our assessment, your office gets a current certificate of insurance, with additional insured and waiver of subrogation wording where your vendor requirements call for it.

Site access compliance and crew badging

From the first moisture reading, we work inside your access rules: sign in, badges, escort requirements, elevator use and loading area assignments.

A measured work plan of loss on your floor plan

During our assessment, we mark the wet boundary on a plan of the space, room by room and suite by suite.

Emergency extraction sized for the building

From the first moisture reading, truck mounted extractors and submersible pumps remove bulk water first.

Sealed work area so business continues around the work

From the first moisture reading, a sealed work area barrier of zip walls and poly separates the work zone from occupied areas.

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

We review with you the written restoration scope and price before you approve the job. These examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situationWhat the estimate may includeTypical range
Affected area up to about 1,500 square feet in a commercial suite, clean water, three to five drying daysNational estimate. The per foot band applies to the metered impacted area, which is in many cases smaller than the whole suite.$3,000 to $12,000
One commercial floor or roughly 5,000 to 10,000 square feetDuring our assessment, national estimate. As our specialists document the loss, larger footprint, many more equipment days and more project coordination.$12,000 to $45,000
Commercial water removal billed by affected area, clean waterDuring our assessment, national estimate. For the written restoration scope, higher than residential rates because of access, sealed work area and documentation demands.$4 to $9 per square foot
Commercial water removal on contaminated waterDuring our assessment, national estimate. From the first moisture reading, adds protective work, cleaning, disinfection and controlled disposal over the same area.$9 to $18 per square foot
After hours dispatch on the first visitAs our specialists document the loss, national estimate for the after hours call out.$100 to $400
Compressed schedule surcharge for extra crews and equipmentDuring our assessment, national estimate. For the written restoration scope, used when reopening sooner is worth more than the added mitigation cost.20 to 50 percent above the standard schedule
  • Affected square footage across the building
    As our specialists document the loss, work plan is measured on what meters find wet, suite by suite.

  • How clean the water was
    For the written restoration scope, a failed supply line inside the building sits at the bottom of the range.

  • How fast you need the space back
    During our assessment, a normal drying schedule costs less than a compressed one. During our assessment, extra crews, extra equipment and overnight shifts buy days, and they are priced accordingly.

  • Equipment units multiplied by days
    As our specialists document the loss, air movers run roughly $25 to $40 per unit per day.

  • After hours and weekend labor
    After hours dispatch is commonly $100 to $400 nationally, and overnight shift work carries a labor premium. Both are in many cases cheaper than closing during trading hours.

  • Access and staging difficulty
    From the first moisture reading, long hose runs, freight elevator scheduling, security escorts and distant parking all add hours.

Why timing matters

What can happen when the area stays wet

Moisture can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

Closed hours compound faster than repair costs

As our specialists document the loss, payroll runs, rent runs, and rescheduled customers may not come back.

Tenants start making their own decisions

During our assessment, a tenant without a reopening date looks at rent abatement clauses and temporary space.

Business income coverage rewards a short restoration period

As our specialists document the loss, business income is paid over the period of restoration, and many policies apply a waiting period first.

Another occupant's loss becomes your liability

From the first moisture reading, water that migrates into a neighboring suite brings a third party claim toward the building.

Common questions

Questions about commercial water removal

How is commercial water removal different from residential work?

For the written restoration scope, the drying science is the same. From the first moisture reading, everything around it changes. From the first moisture reading, commercial jobs add vendor paperwork, badging, after hours access windows, multiple stakeholders and phased reopening.

Can the business keep operating while you work?

As our specialists document the loss, very commonly yes. For the written restoration scope, we contain the work zone with barriers and controlled airflow, protect walkways, and run disruptive stages outside business hours.

Can you send a certificate of insurance before your crew arrives?

As our specialists document the loss, yes. For the written restoration scope, we send a current certificate of insurance with the vendor forms your office needs, including additional insured and waiver of subrogation wording where required.

Do you work overnight or on weekends?

As our specialists document the loss, yes, and on commercial jobs it is in many cases the better plan. For the written restoration scope, extraction, demolition and equipment changes run in after hours windows.

How much does commercial water removal cost?

As our specialists document the loss, as national estimates, an impacted area up to about 1,500 square feet commonly runs $3,000 to $12,000. During our assessment, a full floor of 5,000 to 10,000 square feet commonly runs $12,000 to $45,000.

How long until we can reopen?

During our assessment, extraction is in many cases finished in hours. As our specialists document the loss, drying in many cases takes 3 to 5 days, longer for dense assemblies.

Who signs the work authorization, the owner or the tenant?

As our specialists document the loss, whoever is responsible for that space under the lease, and whoever will be billed.
