The repair and the cleanup are separate jobs
Stopping the leak comes first. A plumber repairs or replaces the failed water heater and makes the plumbing connections. Restoration 365 addresses the water that has already entered the building: extraction, moisture assessment, drying and necessary damaged-material removal.
Before work starts, we explain the affected areas and proposed scope. Tell us whether the leak is still active, whether the water supply is off, and whether a plumber has attended. Do not enter standing water to check equipment.

1. Assess the affected materials
We inspect the path water has taken from the tank or its connections. That may include the utility space, adjoining walls, floor coverings and rooms below. Moisture meters help check materials; thermal imaging can highlight temperature differences that need further investigation.
We identify access needs and visible hazards before choosing equipment or proposing removal. Tell us about earlier leaks, recent replacement work or any changes you have noticed. These details help separate the current damage from pre-existing conditions.
2. Extract, open where needed, and dry
Remove accessible water
Extraction equipment removes standing water and water held in accessible materials. Equipment is selected for the conditions and access at your home.
Discuss necessary removal
Wet insulation, flooring or drywall may need removal when it cannot be restored or blocks access to affected spaces. We explain the scope and document the reason before demolition. Suspect hazardous materials require assessment and appropriate handling.
Set up structural drying
Air movers and dehumidifiers support evaporation and moisture removal. Placement depends on the materials, affected spaces and safe electrical capacity. Follow the crew’s instructions about equipment and access.
Check progress
We monitor conditions and material readings, adjusting the plan when progress is slower than expected. A calendar alone does not determine completion. Read about drying time and completion checks.
Equipment follows the conditions in your home
Extraction and drying
Pumps and extraction tools remove accessible water. Air movers and dehumidifiers then support drying. A finished basement, a utility closet and a leak that reached a lower floor may each need a different arrangement.
Measurement and access
Moisture meters support decisions about drying progress. Thermal imaging is a screening tool, not a substitute for checking materials. If layers conceal moisture, we explain what access is needed and why.
3. Document cleanup and explain the next steps
We keep photos, scope notes and moisture records to document the affected areas and the work performed. With your authorization, we can provide information to your insurer. Your policy and insurer determine coverage, deductibles and reimbursement.
At the end of mitigation, we explain the drying results and any remaining repair needs. Removing wet materials does not include automatically rebuilding the finished room. Confirm the scope of any later repairs separately. Our cost guide explains the main scope factors.

Will every wet material be removed?
No. The decision depends on condition, contamination, access and whether the material can be dried and restored. We explain proposed removal rather than assuming all water-heater leaks need the same demolition.
Can the plumber work while drying continues?
Often the jobs can be coordinated, but safe access and the affected area determine timing. Let each contractor know what the other is doing.
What if the tank is already replaced?
Remaining moisture can still need attention. See what to check after replacement.
