What to do while water is still spreading
Before the drying team gets to work, a few safe moves limit how much of a home has to be torn out. Each one takes only a few minutes.
Close the main water valve. It usually sits where the water pipe comes into the house. On a leaking water heater, close the cold supply valve at the top of the tank.
Switch off power to wet rooms. Use the breaker panel only from a dry spot, and keep away from outlets and cords that sit in water.
Get belongings off the floor. Raise rugs, boxes and electronics, and move furniture off wet carpet so the legs do not stain or swell.
Take photos before any cleanup. Shoot the source, the water level and damaged items in each room; the claim file starts with these pictures.
Keep the heat on and windows closed. On cold nights heat protects the rest of the pipes, and closed windows keep damp outside air from slowing the drying.
Overnight water does more damage
Every hour water sits, it soaks deeper into drywall, pad and wood framing, and mold can begin within 24 to 48 hours. Early extraction saves more of the house.
(888) 670-6527Start the Pembroke dry-out nowWater damage dried to the IICRC S500 standard
The IICRC S500 standard defines when a structure is dry. In a home here that means drying framing, floors and walls until each one reads within 2 to 4 points of a dry reference.
Map the moisture
The tech who does the walkthrough finds the source, sets the water category and maps wet materials with thermal imaging and meters.
Pull water and wet materials
The extraction crew removes standing water, then takes out pad, baseboard or drywall that cannot be dried in place.
Dry the structure
Air movers and LGR dehumidifiers are sized to each room, with desiccants for dense wood, plaster and brick.
Log and confirm
Readings go into daily psychrometric drying records, and the equipment leaves only when every material matches the dry reference.

What a water damage dry-out looks like
How a water loss gets handled
Rapid local response
The town has round-the-clock dispatch, and active water is handled as urgent at any hour, holidays and weekends too.
IICRC S500 drying standard
Drying targets the structure, not just the surface. Clean, gray and black water each follow their own steps, and the class of loss sets the equipment count.
Claim-ready documentation
A moisture map, daily drying logs and dated photos taken before anything is removed, plus a line-item scope an adjuster can check.
Local water know-how
Suncook River flood history, freeze and thaw cycles near Concord and a housing stock that is about 57% pre-1980 shape the work here.
Every decision rests on a reading. Pinless meters and a thermal camera show where the water went, the numbers are logged each day, and the drying team leaves only when the house tests dry.
All water damage categories covered
Clean water
Category 1 water starts clean: a supply pipe, a thawed frozen pipe or a water heater tank. Caught early, most of it dries in place.
Frozen pipe cleanupGray water
Category 2 water carries contaminants, like a washer or dishwasher discharge or a pit overflow. Soaked pad usually goes and surfaces get an antimicrobial.
Appliance leak cleanupBlack water
Category 3 water includes sewage and Suncook River flood water. Porous materials it touched are removed, and the work runs inside containment with protective gear.
Sewage backup cleanupWhat does water damage restoration cost in Pembroke, NH?
A typical water loss here costs $1,200 to $9,000 to restore. Flood water or a sewage backup that covers a whole floor can run $9,000 to $25,000 or more, depending on the category, the wet area, the materials and how long the water sat.

Documentation for your insurance claim
An adjuster pays for what the file proves. From the first visit to the final reading, the restoration team assembles the records a claim needs.
- A moisture map of each wet room, drawn before equipment goes in
- Daily drying logs with temperature, humidity and material readings
- Dated photos of the source and the damage, taken before removal
- The water category and class of loss, set at the first visit
- A line-item scope covering extraction, removal and drying
Check your own policy
A sudden, accidental leak like a burst or frozen pipe usually falls under a homeowners policy. Rising Suncook or Merrimack River water is flood damage, which needs a separate flood policy.
Land in Zone A and Zone AE falls under the town's floodplain rules, and sewer backup often needs an endorsement. Check your own policy with your insurer before repairs start.
How water gets into Pembroke homes
The town sits between three rivers: the Merrimack on the southwest, the Soucook on the northwest and the Suncook on the southeast. Add cold winters near Concord and older homes, and water finds several ways in.
May 2006: In the Mother's Day flood the Suncook River topped its banks and the town had flooded homes and evacuations. On May 15 a riverbank breach in Epsom sent the river into a new channel.
Suncook River flooding
The USGS names 1936, 2006, 2007 and 2010 as major flood years for the town and its Suncook River neighbors.
Mapped flood zones
Land in Zone A and Zone AE on the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map falls under the town's floodplain rules.
Deep cold
Lows near Concord drop below zero on about 15 nights a year, so pipes in cold walls and unheated spaces can split.
Winter thaws
One to three days a month reach 50 degrees or more from December to February, so frozen pipes and roof ice melt fast.
Older housing
About 24.3% of homes here were built in 1939 or earlier and about 57% before 1980, so many have decades-old framing and finishes.
Sewer and drain rules
About two-thirds of residents are on the municipal sewer, and the owner pays to keep the building sewer in repair.
Water damage questions from local homeowners
Water still coming in?
Questions can wait. Water cannot, so call dispatch now, which is open around the clock every day.
(888) 670-6527 Ask about your local water lossHow fast can water damage help reach my home?
Dispatch is open day and night, and active water is treated as urgent at any hour, including weekends and holidays. Call as soon as you see the water, because how quickly extraction starts decides how much can dry in place.
What should I do before the drying team gets there?
Close the main water valve, turn off power to wet rooms from a dry spot, lift belongings off the floor and photograph the damage. In cold weather, keep the heat on so the other pipes do not freeze.
Is flood damage from the Suncook River covered by insurance?
Standard homeowners policies exclude damage from rising river or surface water. Flood coverage comes from a separate flood policy, so check with your own insurer about what your policy covers.
Has the town flooded before?
Yes. The USGS lists 1936, 2006, 2007 and 2010 as notable flood years for the town and its Suncook River neighbors, and in the May 2006 Mother's Day flood the town had flooded homes and evacuations.
What changed after the 2006 flood?
On May 15, 2006 a riverbank breach in Epsom sent the Suncook River into a new channel. That changed the flood zones along the river and led to a new federal flood study that covers the town.
Can I send sump pump water into the sewer?
The town's Sewer Use Ordinance bars connecting foundation drains, roof downspouts and other groundwater or runoff to a building sewer that leads to the public sanitary sewer. Ask the town before changing where sump water goes.
Who pays to repair a backed-up building sewer?
Under the Sewer Use Ordinance, the owner pays for installation, connection, maintenance and repair of the building sewer. A drain too low to flow to the public sewer by gravity has to be lifted at the owner's expense.
How long does drying take?
Most small, clean-water losses dry in three to five days if drying begins quickly. Dense materials such as plaster, brick, hardwood and concrete need longer, and the readings decide when the equipment leaves.
What does substantial damage mean in the town's flood rules?
In the town's floodplain rules, substantial damage means damage whose repair cost equals or exceeds 50% of the structure's market value before the damage. Detailed records of the loss and the repair scope help when that question comes up.
How is the cost of water damage restoration figured?
The price follows the water category, how many square feet got wet, the materials involved and how long the water sat. Restoration contractors usually price the work as a line-item scope, the format adjusters use, and the cost calculator shows a typical range.
