Sea level at Charleston has risen by 1.3 inches per decade since 1921, nearly double the global rate, and the city recorded a record 14 tidal flood days in 2020.

Why choose us for water damage restoration

Why Use Our Network in Gaffney, SC

Matching in South Carolina starts with two questions: where the property is and what kind of water loss it has. From there we connect the owner with an independent local contractor. America Water Damage does not perform the restoration or supervise it. South Carolina regulates residential work through the Residential Builders Commission, part of the Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation. The commission registers residential specialty contractors for repair and improvement work where the undertaking exceeds $500. We are not aware of a South Carolina license specific to water damage restoration, so ask which commission license or registration the contractor holds and verify it with the department. Before work starts in Gaffney, SC, ask the contractor for proof of liability insurance and a written scope. Insurance billing is arranged between you and the contractor, so confirm how they handle claims. We set no prices. The contractor quotes the job.

Frequently asked questions about water damage restoration

Questions Gaffney, SC homeowners and businesses ask most about water damage restoration — and clear, honest answers.

Contact Us
Will the restoration contractor work with my insurance company?
We are not a restoration contractor, so we do not bill insurers or handle claims ourselves. We connect you with an independent local contractor, and any insurance billing is arranged directly between you and that contractor. Many restoration contractors are used to documenting losses for insurers, but practices vary from company to company. Before work starts, ask the contractor how they handle claims, what documentation they provide and what you would owe if the insurer pays less than the invoice.
Should I call my insurer or a restoration contractor first?
In most cases you can do both within the same hour, and the order matters less than acting early. Stopping the water and limiting the damage comes first, because most policies expect the owner to take reasonable steps to prevent further loss. Report the claim to your insurer as soon as you can and note the claim number. A contractor can then inspect the property and document the damage. Keep photographs, videos and receipts from the start, since that record supports whatever your insurer decides.
What should I do while waiting for a contractor to arrive?
If it is safe to do so, stop the water at its source by closing the main shutoff valve. Stay out of standing water that may be in contact with electrical outlets or appliances, and switch off power to affected areas only if you can reach the panel safely. Photograph and video everything before you move it, because that record is what a claim is built on. Lift furniture and soft furnishings off wet carpet where you can, and move valuables and documents to a dry room.
Is it safe to stay in my home after water damage?
That depends on the source of the water and how much of the home is affected. Clean water from a supply line in one room is a very different situation from sewage or floodwater, which can carry contaminants and should be treated as hazardous. Water near electrical systems, sagging ceilings and soaked structural materials are also reasons for caution. If you have any doubt, keep people and pets out of the affected area until a contractor has inspected it. For anything involving gas or live electricity, call the utility or emergency services first.
What can be saved and what has to be removed?
It depends mainly on the material and on how contaminated the water was. Hard, non-porous surfaces can usually be cleaned and dried. Porous materials such as carpet pad, insulation and drywall are harder to save, and after contact with sewage or floodwater they generally have to be removed. Solid wood and structural framing can often be dried in place if the work starts early. A contractor should tell you what they plan to remove and why before they do it, and you can ask for that in writing.
