ater damage is extremely difficult and costly to repair. The national average cost to dry out a home is $2700.
Costs will vary depending on various factors like the size of the affected area and extent of damage caused. The type of water also affects the cost. There are three types of water: clean water from a supply pipe, gray wastewater mostly overflows from machines and black water that contains sewage. Typical cleanup costs anywhere between $4 to $7 per sq ft and repairs from $450-$7000 depending on the company.
Natural causes like floods and hurricanes are also major causes of water damages. To fix these, a sump pump needs to be installed. It pumps water from under the foundation and drains it away from properties at about $1200. It is advised for one to consult with the restoration company to find out if an insurance cover taken will cover any water damage.
