About America Water Damage

Connecting You with Water Damage Restoration Contractors in Lancaster, PA

America Water Damage is a nationwide network, and in Pennsylvania that means one thing: connecting people who have water in their property with independent restoration contractors near them. The contractor does the drying and the repairs. We make the introduction and explain what to expect. NOAA's state climate summary for Pennsylvania records that over two weeks in 2011 the remnants of Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee drenched the state and caused historic flooding. Tropical Storm Agnes in 1972 dropped more than 10 inches of rain in places and caused almost $3 billion in damages statewide. Heavy rain is especially damaging when it combines with spring snowmelt, as in the record 1936 flood on the Monongahela River. Philadelphia recorded a record 12 tidal flood days in 2011. For owners in Lancaster, PA and across Pennsylvania, that record is a reason to act early when water appears. Reach out at any time and we will connect you with a nearby restoration contractor. They handle the inspection, the drying plan and the repairs directly with you.

Why choose us for water damage restoration

Why Use Our Network in Lancaster, PA

In Pennsylvania, our role is to shorten the search. We take the address and the details of the loss, then connect the owner with an independent contractor who works in that area and handles that type of damage. We do no restoration work ourselves. Pennsylvania requires contractors who perform at least $5,000 of home improvements a year to register with the Office of Attorney General under the Home Improvement Consumer Protection Act. Registration is a consumer protection record rather than a test of skill. We are not aware of a Pennsylvania license specific to water damage restoration, so check the registration number with the Attorney General and ask separately about certification. Whichever contractor you speak with in Lancaster, PA, ask for a written scope and proof of insurance before agreeing to anything. Any insurance claim is handled between you and the contractor. We do not set or influence prices. The quote comes from the contractor.

Water Damage Restoration FAQs

Frequently asked questions about water damage restoration

Questions Lancaster, PA 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.
What are the categories of water damage?
The restoration industry commonly sorts water into three categories by contamination. Category 1 is clean water from a sanitary source such as a supply line. Category 2 is water with significant contamination, for example from a washing machine or dishwasher discharge. Category 3 is grossly contaminated water such as sewage or floodwater. The category matters because it changes what can be cleaned and kept and what has to be removed. Clean water can also degrade into a worse category the longer it sits, which is one more reason to act early.
Do you set the price for the work?
No. We set no prices and play no part in the quote. The contractor you are matched with inspects the property and gives you their own estimate, and many contractors offer free estimates, so confirm that before booking. Because the price comes from the contractor, it is sensible to ask what the estimate includes, how changes to the scope will be handled and how insurance billing would work if you make a claim. If you want a sense of typical figures, published industry sources such as Fixr report national averages, but only an inspection produces a real number for your property.
