Before anyone arrives
Water in your Naples home? Start here
You don't have to do all of this. Do what's safe, in this order, and leave the rest.
Shut off the water
Look for the main valve near the meter or where the line comes into the house, and turn it slowly, since older valves can stick. If it's one fixture, its own shutoff valve will do.
Stay clear of the power
If you can reach the breaker panel without stepping in water, switch off the wet rooms. If you can't, leave it alone, stay out of the water and tell us when you call.
Take pictures first
Before you clean up, photograph the water, where it came from and whatever it damaged. Your insurance company will ask, and you only get one chance at those shots.
Rescue what you can
Move rugs, papers, photos and electronics to a dry room, and prop furniture up off the wet floor. Everything else can wait.
Let the air move
If the water is clean and the power's safe, open interior doors and run the fans you have. Stay out if it's sewage or floodwater, and keep that air away from the rest of the house.

Mold can get started within 24 to 48 hours, so it's worth calling even if the worst seems over.
Typical build year
What tends to fail in Naples houses like yours
Most homes here are old enough to have been through a few rounds of plumbing work, and what's in your walls may be a mix. Galvanized steel pipe rusts from the inside, so low pressure or brown water is often the first hint. Cast iron drains crack along the bottom, where you can't see them.
Start in the basement or crawlspace if you have one, and look for rust stains, damp joints and pipes that have obviously been patched. If your sewer line has never been checked, a camera inspection costs far less than a backup.

How we can help in Naples
Water Damage Cleanup & Extraction
The more water that comes out at this stage, the less has to be dried later. Pumps and extraction units clear carpet, pad, hardwood and tile, then everything the water touched gets cleaned.
Call Now: (888) 596-0163
Flood Damage Restoration
Floodwater is never clean. It carries soil and sewage, so mud and silt get cleared, soaked drywall and insulation get cut out, and what stays gets disinfected.
Call Now: (888) 596-0163
Basement Water Damage Restoration
If your home has a basement, a failed sump pump or a backed-up drain can fill it fast. It gets pumped out, the concrete and block get dried, and someone finds out how the water got in.
Call Now: (888) 596-0163
Structural Drying and Dehumidification
Air movers and dehumidifiers run until the meters say your walls, subfloor and framing are back to normal. Not until they look dry. Until the readings prove it.
Call Now: (888) 596-0163
Water Damage Repair and Restoration
Once the structure is dry, the drywall, flooring, trim and paint go back. You'll have photos and notes for your claim along the way.

What's different about water damage in Naples
Weather
Winter does much of the damage here. Long cold snaps freeze pipes in outside walls and unheated spaces, ice dams back meltwater under shingles, and a fast spring thaw sends snowmelt toward your foundation. Summer adds hail big enough to break roofing and skylights.
Buildings
Homes here are built tight against the cold, and that's good until water gets in. Then insulation and vapor barriers hold it inside the wall. A finished basement raises the stakes, and if you leave for the winter, it's worth turning off the water before you go.
Ground
Snowmelt is the big one. While the ground's frozen, none of it soaks in, so it runs toward low spots and window wells. On the plains, heavy clay holds it against the wall. In the mountains, rock does much the same.
Drying
Dry mountain air can make a surface look done long before it is. Moisture stays deep in studs, subfloors and insulation behind vapor barriers, so specialists rely on digital moisture meters to confirm that it's dry all the way through.
When you call
How a Naples water job goes after you call
We'll ask where you are, what happened and whether the water's still running. That takes a couple of minutes. Then we'll connect you with a specialist from our network who works in Clark County, and you can ask them when they can be there before you hang up. Homes and commercial buildings are both fine.
Expect a walk through the house with a thermal camera and a moisture meter, because what you can see is usually only part of it. The specialist will also tell you which of the three categories you've got. Category 1 water is clean, Category 2 is dirty, and Category 3 is sewage or floodwater. That last one changes the job, with plastic containment around the work area and negative air machines pushing air through HEPA filters.
Expect the drying to take longer than the cleanup. After a truck-mounted or portable unit has pulled out the standing water, air movers and LGR (low grain refrigerant) dehumidifiers run around the clock. Desiccant units get swapped in for cold rooms and dense materials. The specialist takes psychrometric readings each day, tracking temperature and humidity to see how fast the air is taking up water.
So how do you know it's done? It's done when the numbers say so. A dry baseline from untouched materials in your house is the target, and each wet area has to reach it before the equipment leaves. It follows the IICRC S500 standard, and you get a record of the readings for your insurance claim.
Can it be saved? A guide for Naples homes
Most people expect to lose more than they do. Carpet that's only had clean water on it can usually be dried, though the pad underneath gets replaced. Drying mats can bring cupped hardwood back, given time. Walls often need only a flood cut, where the bottom of the drywall comes off and new board goes in.
Contaminated water is where the rules get strict. Sewage or floodwater means the carpet and pad come out, along with wet insulation, and what's left gets an antimicrobial treatment. It's also not safe to relight a gas appliance that's been underwater until someone's checked it, and a soft floor needs a look before anyone stands on it.

Naples water damage questions
How fast can someone get to me in Naples?
It depends on the time and the weather, but same-day help is what we aim for, and it's often a matter of hours. The local specialist will give you a time on the phone, so you're not left guessing.
Can I clean up water damage myself?
A small spill of clean water on a hard floor? Sure. Towels and a fan will do it. But if the water's in the walls, the carpet pad or the subfloor, or it came from a sewer or a flood, you'll want it extracted and properly dried. What you can't see is what keeps causing damage.
How long does it take to dry out a house?
Most homes take three to five days of drying once the water's out. Dense materials such as hardwood and plaster can take longer, and any rebuilding comes afterward.
Can wet hardwood floors and carpet be saved?
Often, yes, if drying starts quickly. Hardwood can come back with floor drying mats and slow, controlled drying, though it may cup for a while and need refinishing. Carpet soaked by clean water can usually be saved with a new pad. Carpet that sewage or floodwater touched has to go.
Will my insurance pay for water damage?
That's between you and your insurance company, but most policies cover sudden water damage from inside the home. Flood is separate, and sewer backup is often an add-on. Your best help is good records: photos from the start, plus the daily drying readings.
