Water Damage Restoration Toronto | 24/7 Emergency Service

Water Damage Restoration

GTA Restoration offers water damage restoration across Toronto and the GTA. We help homes and businesses after leaks and floods. Our team removes water, dries wet areas and plans repairs.

Water can hide under floors and behind walls. For this reason, we check more than the wet spots you can see.

First Steps After a Leak or Flood

First, keep people and pets out of unsafe rooms. Do not enter standing water near wires, outlets or powered items. If water may have reached these, call your power company for help.

Stop a leak only if you can reach the shut-off valve safely. Then, take photos from a safe place and call for cleanup help. Stay clear of weak walls and sagging ceilings.

Find and Stop the Water Source

Leaks may start at a pipe, roof, drain or appliance. Rain and sewer backups can also flood a home. However, cleanup alone will not fix an active leak.

Our leak detection service can help find the source. Once crews control the water, they can plan the next steps.

Water Extraction and Moisture Checks

Next, crews use pumps and other tools to remove water. They check wet walls, floors and cabinets with moisture meters. These checks help show where the water has spread.

Some areas may look dry but still hold moisture. Therefore, crews also check for dampness below the surface.

Structural Drying

Air movers help damp surfaces dry. Dehumidifiers draw moisture from the air. Together, they support our structural drying service.

Crews track moisture levels and adjust the setup as needed. For example, some parts of a room may dry sooner than others. Ask the team before you move or switch off any equipment.

Water Damage Cleanup and Mould Control

Some wet materials can stay after cleaning and drying. However, badly damaged items or those soaked with sewage may need removal.

Keep away from sewage and floodwater. These losses need extra care. Prompt cleanup and drying also help reduce mould risk. Read Health Canada’s flood cleanup advice to learn more.

If you already see mould, tell the crew before work starts. Our mould removal service can help address the growth and its moisture source.

Repairs and Work Records

Once the area is clean and meets its drying goals, crews can plan repairs. Work may include walls, floors, trim or paint. The damage and scope of work affect the cost and time.

Also, save photos, receipts and work notes for your insurer. These records help explain the loss. However, your policy and the cause of damage affect what your insurer covers.

Help for Homes, Condos and Businesses

Tell the team which rooms you need to use during the work. In a condo, also notify building staff. They can help arrange access and check whether the leak affects nearby units.
