Signs to look for
When to call us for condo water cleanup
We keep the field plan clear: If you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.
A damp band on the wall where a plumbing riser runs
Our response crew uses a practical rule: Kitchens and bathrooms stack vertically, and the chase behind them carries a plumbing riser serving several units.
Water at a balcony door threshold or a window frame
To keep the work focused, we start here: Balconies, patios and windows are frequently limited frequent elements, meaning you use them exclusively but the association maintains them.
Ceiling stains in a top floor unit
To keep the work focused, we start here: The roof is a frequent element in virtually every declaration, so water arriving from above the top floor is an association matter.
A neighbor reports a stain on their ceiling below you
As we organize the work, we account for this: That means water left your unit, through your floor and into a shared assembly.
Water in a corridor, lobby or the mechanical room behind your wall
For your property, the useful point is this: Common area water still reaches your unit under the door and through the wall cavity.
What happens
How we handle condo water cleanup
Our response crew adjusts the work to the rooms and materials exposed to water, where the water reached, and the materials that can be saved.
Your condo documents read with you
Before equipment is placed, we consider this: We go to the insurance article in the declaration and to the maintenance responsibility chart, which is in most cases a table nobody has opened.
The unit boundary established with readings, not opinions
During the response, we work from this fact: A moisture meter and thermal imaging show whether the wet material is in your unit, in a party wall or in a shared chase.
Original specification separated from your improvements
As we organize the work, we account for this: Builder grade cabinets, original tile and original carpet are treated differently from the kitchen you installed in 2019.
Extraction and pump out of the unit
Our step-by-step approach makes this clear: Portable extractors reach through corridors, elevators and stairwells to pull water from carpet, padding and hard flooring.
Party wall and chase drying without unnecessary demolition
As we organize the work, we account for this: Shared assemblies are dried through small access points and cavity drying where possible, rather than opening a neighbor's finish.
Common element work coordinated with the board or managing agent
We keep the field plan clear: Anything in a corridor, riser closet, roof assembly or mechanical space requires association authorization.

Which policy owns each item
Our response crew uses a practical rule: This is the biggest cost variable in a condo and it is not about labor.Original specification versus your upgrades
Our response crew uses a practical rule: Original builder finishes are priced at original specification by the association's adjuster.How much of the unit is wet
Our technicians plan around this detail: Pricing tracks affected square footage, not the size of the unit deed.How clean the water was
We keep the field plan clear: Supply line water is the cleanest case and preserves the most finish.Shared assemblies involved
Our technicians plan around this detail: Drying a party wall, a chase or a floor assembly between units takes longer than drying a room.Building access and rules
For a prepared response, we focus on this: Elevator reservations, loading dock windows, restricted work hours and long corridor hose runs all add labor.
Why timing matters
What can happen when the area stays wet
Our field notes give this point special attention: Water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.
The association's deductible can land on you
Our response crew uses a practical rule: Master policy deductibles are commonly five thousand to fifty thousand dollars, and larger associations run higher.
Your improvements are invisible in the association's work plan
Before equipment is placed, we consider this: An association adjuster prices the building as originally specified.
One unit's water becomes three owners' repairs
From the first assessment, we look at this: Party walls and stacked units share floor assemblies and wall cavities, so water travels sideways and down.
Mold begins in 24 to 48 hours, inside an assembly you do not control alone
Before equipment is placed, we consider this: Damp material at room temperature is all it requires.

Read the explanation

Read the explanation

Common questions
Questions about condo water cleanup
Who pays for water damage in a condo, me or the HOA?
Our response crew uses a practical rule: It depends on the rooms and materials exposed to water and on your declaration's insurance article.
What is the difference between walls in and bare walls coverage?
From the first assessment, we look at this: Bare walls means the master policy insures the structure and stops at the unfinished studs, so drywall, flooring, cabinets and fixtures are on your policy.
The HOA says I have to pay their deductible. Is that legal?

What is loss assessment coverage and do I need it?
Our field notes give this point special attention: It pays your share when the association assesses owners for a loss, including a deductible passed to your unit.
