Water in Your Home? Do This First

  1. Shut off the water at the main valve, usually in the basement near the front wall.
  2. Turn off power to wet areas at the breaker, only if you can reach the panel without standing in water.
  3. Move valuables and furniture off wet floors.
  4. Take photos and video of everything before cleanup starts, for your insurance claim.
  5. Call us. The longer water sits, the more it soaks into floors, drywall and the neighboring home.

Why Water Damage Spreads Faster in West Philadelphia Row Homes

Most homes around 19131, 19151 and 19139 are brick row homes and twins with shared party walls. Water from a burst pipe or a leaking roof can travel along joists and walls into the house next door, and a small leak left overnight can become two homes’ worth of damage.

These homes also have aging plumbing. Galvanized supply lines and cast iron drains that are 80 to 100 years old fail from the inside with little warning. And because much of Philadelphia runs on combined sewers, a heavy storm can push sewage back up through basement floor drains. Sewage water needs a different cleanup than a clean-water pipe leak, and we handle both.
