About America Water Damage

Connecting You with Water Damage Restoration Contractors in Hanover, MD

America Water Damage connects property owners in Maryland with independent local water damage restoration contractors. We do not carry out the work ourselves. When water gets into a home or a commercial building, we take the details and put the owner in touch with a contractor who serves their area. NOAA's state climate summary for Maryland reports that 2-inch extreme precipitation events averaged 2.5 days a year from 2005 to 2020, compared with 1.8 days from 1950 to 2004. Ellicott City was hit by catastrophic flash floods in both 2016 and 2018, from storms that dropped 6 to 12 inches of rain. On the coast, Superstorm Sandy in 2012 brought a storm surge of 4 to 5 feet that caused widespread flooding in low-lying areas of the Eastern Shore. That is the backdrop for water damage in Maryland. If you are dealing with it in Hanover, MD, contact us at any hour. We will take the details and connect you with an independent contractor nearby, who will inspect the property and explain the work before it starts.

Why choose us for water damage restoration

Why Use Our Network in Hanover, MD

In Maryland, our role is to shorten the search. We take the address and the details of the loss, then connect the owner with an independent contractor who works in that area and handles that type of damage. We do no restoration work ourselves. Maryland requires home improvement contractors to be licensed by the Maryland Home Improvement Commission, part of the Department of Labor. The commission states that only MHIC licensed contractors may enter into contracts with homeowners for home improvement work. We are not aware of a Maryland license specific to water damage restoration, so ask for the MHIC number and check it with the commission. Whichever contractor you speak with in Hanover, MD, ask for a written scope and proof of insurance before agreeing to anything. Any insurance claim is handled between you and the contractor. We do not set or influence prices. The quote comes from the contractor.

Frequently asked questions about water damage restoration

Questions Hanover, MD homeowners and businesses ask most about water damage restoration — and clear, honest answers.

Contact Us
Will the restoration contractor work with my insurance company?
We are not a restoration contractor, so we do not bill insurers or handle claims ourselves. We connect you with an independent local contractor, and any insurance billing is arranged directly between you and that contractor. Many restoration contractors are used to documenting losses for insurers, but practices vary from company to company. Before work starts, ask the contractor how they handle claims, what documentation they provide and what you would owe if the insurer pays less than the invoice.
What should I do while waiting for a contractor to arrive?
If it is safe to do so, stop the water at its source by closing the main shutoff valve. Stay out of standing water that may be in contact with electrical outlets or appliances, and switch off power to affected areas only if you can reach the panel safely. Photograph and video everything before you move it, because that record is what a claim is built on. Lift furniture and soft furnishings off wet carpet where you can, and move valuables and documents to a dry room.
How soon can mold start after water damage?
Sooner than most people expect. The US Environmental Protection Agency says it is important to dry water-damaged areas and items within 24 to 48 hours to prevent mold growth. Warm, humid conditions and porous materials such as drywall, carpet pad and insulation make growth more likely. The EPA also suggests that moldy areas larger than about 10 square feet, or mold that follows extensive water damage, are a reason to consult a professional. Some states license mold work separately, so ask any contractor in Hanover, MD which credential covers it.
How long does drying take?
There is no single answer, and you should be cautious of anyone who promises one before seeing the property. Drying time depends on how much water was involved, how long materials were wet, what they are made of and the conditions in the building. Dense materials such as hardwood, plaster and concrete release moisture more slowly than drywall or carpet. The honest measure is not the calendar but the readings. A contractor should track moisture levels regularly and keep drying until the affected materials reach a dry standard.
What should I check before hiring a restoration contractor?
Check the credential that applies where you live, because the rules differ by state. Some states license contractors or require registration, some leave it to cities and counties, and a few license mold work separately. Ask for the license or registration number and verify it with the issuing body. Ask for proof of general liability insurance and, if they have employees, workers compensation cover. Ask for a written scope of work before anything is removed. Many restoration firms also hold IICRC certification, which you can ask to see.
