Frequently Asked
Is it safe to go into a flooded basement?
Not if outlets, cords, or appliances are submerged. Cut power to the affected area at the breaker before entering, and avoid contact with standing water.
Will my floor and drywall be salvageable?
It depends on water type, depth, and how long it sits. The faster we begin extraction and drying, the more material we can typically save.
Should I call or fill out the form?
If water is actively spreading, call. The form is best when the situation isn't actively worsening or you'd prefer to send details online.

Yes. Our emergency line is available around the clock, every day of the year — weekends and holidays included. When you call, we move to coordinate response from our local York Region team.

It depends on where the crew is and the time of day. Our team lives and works in York Region, so we move as quickly as drive time allows. We'll give you a realistic window during the call.

Yes. We capture photos, notes, moisture readings, and the kinds of details adjusters look for, so you have clearer information to work with.
