Sixteen services for every kind of water loss
Houses here run on private wells and septic tanks, so water in a loss may come from a pipe, a storm, rising groundwater or a septic problem. Each service below fits one of those causes.
Water Extraction and RemovalTruck-mounted and portable extractors pull standing water from carpet, slabs and subfloors before it soaks into the framing.Service details
Frozen Pipe Water DamageA pipe that splits in a cold snap releases its water at the thaw. The crew extracts the flood and dries the wet wall cavities.Service details
Ice Dam Water DamageMeltwater backed up under shingles soaks insulation and ceilings below the eaves, and each wet layer gets opened and dried.Service details
Basement Flooding CleanupGroundwater and heavy rain can fill a basement fast. Pump-out, extraction and dehumidification bring the slab and walls back to dry readings.Service details
Sump Pump Failure CleanupWhen a sump pump stops or the power fails, the pit overflows. Extraction and structural drying clear the basement afterward.Service details
Flood Water CleanupRiver, lake and runoff flooding leaves contaminated water in a home. Cleanup covers removal, antimicrobial treatment and complete drying.Service details
Storm Water DamageWind-driven rain, fallen limbs and failed flashing let storm water into walls and ceilings, and the response team dries what got wet.Service details
Roof Leak Water DamageA leak under snow or ice often runs through the attic before it shows. Wet insulation comes out and the ceiling is dried in place.Service details
Ceiling Leak Water DamageA stain on a ceiling signals water above it. The mitigation team traces the source, opens the wet section and dries the joist bay.Service details
Burst Pipe Water DamageA burst supply pipe can run for hours. Extraction, removal of soaked materials and drying limit the damage across floors.Service details
Water Heater Leak CleanupA failed tank can empty all at once into a basement or closet. The crew pumps it out and dries the floor, walls and framing.Service details
Appliance and Supply Hose LeaksDishwashers, washing machines and ice makers leak from hoses and fittings, often under the floor. Hidden moisture gets found and dried.Service details
Sewage Backup CleanupA backup from a septic system or a building drain is contaminated water. Containment, removal and sanitizing make the space safe again.Service details
Structural Drying and DehumidificationAir movers and dehumidifiers dry framing, subfloors and plaster, and daily readings show when each material reaches its dry goal.Service details
Hardwood Floor DryingWet hardwood cups and buckles within days. Mats and controlled drying can save boards that would otherwise be torn out.Service details
Commercial Water DamageShops, offices and schools need phased drying that keeps occupied space running, with large-loss equipment and claim documentation.Service details
What to do right after water gets in
Fast, calm action limits how far water spreads through a house. These five steps protect people, the structure and the insurance claim while the drying team gets ready.
Stop the source If a pipe is running, close the main valve, or switch off the well pump breaker on a private well. Touch electrical items only when the floor is dry.
Keep clear of power Stay away from wet outlets, panels and appliances. Turn off affected circuits at the breaker only when it is safe to reach.
Lift and photograph Move small furniture, rugs and valuables to dry ground. Photograph everything first so the claim has clear before-and-after evidence.
Leave the wet materials Do not rip out carpet or drywall yet. Readings taken on wet materials show how far the moisture traveled.
Call the drying team Describe the road, the source and which floor is wet. The crew packs pumps, extractors and dryers around those details.
Septic or sewage involved?
Stay out of the area, keep children and pets away, and do not run water or flush toilets. A septic backup carries contamination that needs containment before cleanup begins.
(888) 670-6527Ask about sewage cleanupDried to the readings, not to the look
Water that cannot be seen still drives damage. The team measures moisture in framing, subfloors and slabs, matches equipment to each material, and keeps drying until the readings reach the goal.
Map the moisture
Thermal imaging and meters trace water through walls, floors and ceilings so the full extent is known before any equipment is set.
Extract and remove
Standing water is pumped out, and soaked pad, insulation or drywall that cannot dry in place is cut out and carried away.
Dry the structure
Air movers, dehumidifiers and sometimes drying mats pull moisture out of dense framing and floors.
Log and confirm
Readings are recorded at each visit, and equipment stays until every material is back to its dry target.

Local know-how and a clear drying plan
Prompt, organized response
Trucks are stocked for extraction, demolition and drying, so the work begins as soon as the team reaches the home.
Built for rural homes
Wells, septic tanks and long driveways change how a job is staged, and the team plans pumps, hoses and waste handling around them.
Claim-ready documentation
Photos, moisture logs and itemized scopes give an adjuster the record needed to review the loss without guesswork.
Straight drying science
Equipment is chosen by material and water category, then adjusted with daily readings until each surface reaches its dry goal.
Weare is the largest town by area in its planning region, so the crew plans for long rural roads, private wells and septic systems on every call.
Three kinds of water, three different plans
Clean water
A split supply pipe, a failed hose or a leaking tank puts clean water in the house. It is the easiest category to dry, but only if it is removed promptly.
Burst pipe cleanupGray water
Washing machine, dishwasher and sump overflow water carries some contamination. It turns worse the longer it sits, so wet materials are dried or removed quickly.
Appliance leak cleanupBlack water
Septic backups and river flooding bring bacteria and sewage into a home. Porous materials are removed, the area is contained and everything is sanitized.
Septic backup cleanupHow much does water damage cleanup cost here?
Most jobs land between $1,200 and $25,000, and the size of the wet area and the water category set the price. A small leak caught early costs far less than a flood or a septic backup.
- One room or one wall affected
- Extraction and spot drying
- Little or no demolition needed
- Water across a whole floor
- Demolition of all wet materials
- Several days of dehumidifier drying
- A basement or a whole level
- Containment and full sanitizing
- Extended drying with daily logs
These ranges reflect typical jobs, and each price depends on square footage, materials and water category. The water damage cost calculator gives a closer figure.
Working with your insurance claim
Many homeowner policies respond to sudden water damage, though terms differ. Records that show the cause, the extent and the drying work help an adjuster review the whole scope.
- Photograph every wet room and damaged item before anything is moved
- Write down when the water started and what caused it
- Keep receipts for emergency repairs, hotel stays and rented equipment
- Hold on to damaged items until the adjuster has seen them
- Ask the adjuster which causes the policy covers, including flood and septic losses
Handling the claim yourself
Homeowners file with their own insurer and can pass along the team's photos, moisture readings and itemized invoices as the claim moves ahead.
Floodwater from a river or lake falls under flood coverage, which is separate from a homeowner policy. The town joined the National Flood Insurance Program in 1993, and its 2018 hazard mitigation plan counted 37 policies.
Where water trouble starts in town
Weare drains to the Piscataquog River, with Lake Horace and Everett Lake holding it back, and about 3,500 acres of floodplain. Add cold winters and older houses, and water has plenty of ways in.
May 2006: Nearly nine inches of rain fell in four days in an estimated 100-year storm. Culverts failed, 95 of 129 roads or road segments needed repair, and two families were evacuated near Daniels Lake.
River and lake rises
In July 2021 a week of heavy rain lifted the Hopkinton-Everett lakes as much as eight feet above summer level.
Mapped flood zones
The biggest flood hazard areas follow the Choate Brook, Barnard Hill and Meadowbrook watersheds in the town's 2018 hazard mitigation plan, and Zone A and Zone AE rules apply.
Wet ground
Poorly drained soils cover about 2,800 acres and very poorly drained soils another 1,900, so spring runoff meets saturated ground.
Cold and thaws
The fire department has posted a frozen-pipes advisory after several reports of burst pipes in very cold weather.
Ice, snow and outages
The January 1998 ice storm cut power across the whole town for four days, and heavy snow followed in 2011, 2013 and 2015.
Older housing
Nearly 47 percent of homes were built before 1980, and about 12.4 percent date from 1939 or earlier, per the 2000 Census.
Water damage questions homeowners ask
Still have a question?
Describe what happened and the drying team will explain the next steps for the house in plain language.
(888) 670-6527 Ask the drying teamWhat should I do first when water floods my basement?
Stop the source if you can, stay off wet floors near electrical items and photograph the damage before moving anything. Then call a water damage crew, because saturated materials start breaking down quickly.
Should a flooded basement be pumped out all at once?
Not when the soil outside is still saturated. Emptying it too quickly can push walls inward, so the crew pumps in stages and keeps checking the water level outside. Staged pumping is slower but protects the structure.
How long does it take to dry a wet house?
Most jobs need three to five days of equipment, and longer for hardwood, plaster or concrete. Daily readings, not a calendar, decide when the drying is finished, and the crew removes machines only after that.
Is a septic backup different from other water damage?
Yes. Weare has no town-wide sewer, so a backup traces to a septic tank, its field or the building's own drain. It carries bacteria, so septic backup cleanup removes porous materials and sanitizes.
What happens to a private well after floodwater reaches it?
Floodwater around a wellhead can contaminate the supply, so owners commonly test the water before drinking it. The restoration crew handles the structure, while a water testing lab handles the well.
How fast do wet materials need to dry?
Drying should start right away, because mold can begin to grow within 24 to 48 hours on wet drywall, wood and carpet pad. Quick extraction and steady airflow in that window prevent most of the long-term damage.
Does insurance cover water damage from a burst pipe?
Sudden pipe bursts are commonly covered by homeowner policies, while flooding from rivers or lakes usually needs separate flood coverage. Policy wording decides, so read yours or ask the adjuster.
Why do older houses take longer to dry?
Dense plaster, thick framing and layered flooring hold moisture longer. Nearly 47 percent of homes in Weare predate 1980, so drying crews often work with older materials.
Can drying equipment run when the power is out?
Pumps and drying gear can run on generator power when the grid is down. A four-day outage followed the January 1998 ice storm, so power cuts and wet basements often arrive together after big storms.
How is the price of a water damage job decided?
Price follows the square footage affected, the water category and the materials involved. The cost calculator gives a range before anyone visits the house, and the written scope then lists each room.
