How a job runsSame six steps.
Same six steps.
Every single job.
Stop the source and check safety
We help you shut off the water and the power to affected areas, find the source and classify the water as clean, grey or black. That classification decides how every material gets handled.
Extract standing water
Truck-mounted and portable extractors pull water out of carpet, pad, hard floors and wall cavities. Removing water as liquid is far quicker than evaporating it later.
Map moisture and remove what can't be saved
Meters and thermal imaging show how far the water really went. Saturated pad, swollen particleboard and contaminated drywall come out. Anything that can be dried in place stays.
Dry, dehumidify and monitor
Air movers and low-grain refrigerant dehumidifiers dry the structure, usually over 3 to 5 days. We log readings every day until each material reaches its dry standard.
Clean, sanitize and prevent mold
Affected surfaces are cleaned and treated with an antimicrobial so mold can't get started inside the walls or under the flooring.
Repair and restore
Drywall, baseboards, insulation, flooring, cabinets and paint go back in, so the room looks the way it did before the water.
We measure dry, we don't guess.Done means the readings match a dry spot in the same building.

About us
Dallas water damage restoration, done in the right order
Water damage in Dallas rarely looks like the flooded basements on the national news. Most North Texas homes sit on concrete slabs, so the water goes where nobody looks. It runs under laminate and engineered wood, wicks into the bottom two feet of drywall and pools behind kitchen cabinets. Under an attic water heater or AC condensate line, it soaks the ceiling insulation. By the time you notice a stain, it has usually been soaking in for hours.
Water Restoration Fix is here to stop that spread fast and fix it properly. Every job runs in the same order. We stop the source, pull out the standing water and map the moisture with meters and a thermal camera. Then we remove only what can't be saved and dry the structure with commercial dehumidifiers and air movers until the readings match the dry parts of the building. Only after that do we rebuild.
- Moisture mapping with pin and pinless meters plus thermal imaging
- Cleanup matched to the water category: clean, grey or black (sewage)
- Daily drying logs and photos for your insurance claim
- Repairs after drying: drywall, flooring, cabinets and paint

Questions
Straight answers.
The things Dallas property owners ask us most.
How quickly should water damage be addressed in Dallas?
Right away. Drywall and flooring start soaking up water within minutes, and in Dallas humidity mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours. How early extraction and drying begin is the biggest factor in how much of your home can be saved.
Does homeowners insurance cover water damage in Texas?
Most Texas homeowners policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, like a burst pipe or a failed water heater. Slow leaks and rising floodwater are usually excluded, and flood damage needs a separate flood policy. We document the damage so you and your adjuster can work out what's covered.
How long does water damage restoration take?
Drying usually takes 3 to 5 days for a typical clean-water loss. Repairs depend on how much material had to come out. A drywall patch might take a few days, while new flooring and cabinets can take a few weeks.
Can I stay in my home during restoration?
Usually, yes, if the damage is limited to part of the house and the water was clean. After a sewage backup, a large loss, or work that takes out your kitchen or your only bathroom, a short stay somewhere else is often more practical.
What's the difference between water mitigation and restoration?
Mitigation is the emergency part: stopping the water, getting it out and drying the structure so the damage doesn't spread. Restoration is the repair work that rebuilds what had to be removed. We do both.
Do you work with my insurance company?
Yes. We provide the photos, moisture readings, drying logs and itemized scope adjusters ask for, and we can talk to your adjuster directly on your behalf.
What should I do first when I find water damage?
Stop the water if you can reach the shut-off safely, keep away from wet outlets and cords, and take photos of everything before it gets moved. Then call us. We'll talk you through the next steps on the phone while we get on the way.
How do you know when everything is dry?
We take readings in the wet materials and compare them with the same materials in a part of the building that never got wet. The job is dry when those numbers match. You'll see the readings in your drying log every day.
Is the drying equipment loud?
Yes, air movers and dehumidifiers make a steady fan noise and they need to run day and night. We place them where they do the most good, close off the drying area where we can, and tell you how long they're likely to stay.
Which areas do you cover?
Dallas and the cities around it, including Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Irving, Garland, Rockwall, Arlington and Fort Worth. Each city page has a ZIP code checker so you can see right away whether your address is on our list.
Do I have to call my insurance company before I call you?
No. Stopping the damage shouldn't wait. Call us to start extraction and drying, and report the loss to your insurer as soon as you can. We'll document everything so your adjuster has what they need.
