Water Damage & Mold, Really!

Overview

Founded in 2002 with over 60 Units, 1-800-WATER DAMAGE™ is a low overhead, recession resistant, and simple to operate restoration franchise with a focus on the high margin segments of water damage and mold. When water damage occurs, we use modern technology and equipment to dry customers' homes or businesses in just a matter of days.

The majority of jobs we perform are emergency service and most often are paid for by the insurance industry. Insurance companies prefer to professionally dry out a water damage related mess and avoid future mold mitigation than to deal with expensive rip out or a job poorly done. And, when water/moisture isn't dealt with in a timely manner, then we do mold remediation to save the day.

When Do People Call 1-800 WATER DAMAGE? 

1-800 WATER DAMAGE is the number to call whenever a house, apartment complex, condo, hotel or office building has any type of wet mess. In fact, a huge proportion of insurance claims involve water damage!

All sorts of everyday problems create a water damage emergency:

• Frozen or broken pipes spew water everywhere;
• Washer or dish washer pumps water to the wrong place;
• Water heater breaks;
• Water supply lines to refrigerator or other appliances fail;
• Toilet overflows;
• Septic tank back fills;
• Ceiling sprinkler system activates;
• Water floods in from an outside source. 

The 1-800 WATER DAMAGE franchise system is an outstanding opportunity to build a new business for yourself, but not by yourself.

 

It all starts with:

• Two weeks of comprehensive training at our national training and support center in Seattle, Washington;
• Followed by nearly one week of local market training in the franchise territory. 

 

Our proven systems and active coaching programs help franchise partners reach their goals each day, week, month and year. The 1-800 WATER DAMAGE team of experienced professionals is dedicated to your success!
