Water Damage Restoration - Done in the Right Order

Each stage is performed by the independent restoration contractor the call reaches; IICRC S500 is the industry standard that describes them.

  1. Step 1: Extraction

    Standing water is pumped out before it can travel further into drywall, subfloor, and framing. Speed here changes the scope of everything that follows.

  2. Step 2: Moisture mapping

    Meters read the material, not the air, so the wet edge is found even when the surface already looks dry. The map sets what has to come out and what can stay.

  3. Step 3: Drying

    Air movers and dehumidifiers run as a closed system until readings inside the material reach a dry standard, not until a calendar date arrives.

  4. Step 4: Verification

    The same points are re-read before equipment comes out. Rebuild starts only after the structure, not just the surface, is confirmed dry.

What drives water into buildings in Spring House

Our local pros provide water damage restoration services in Spring House and the surrounding area, wherever in town the call comes from. A Montgomery County community on the Wissahickon headwaters northwest of Philadelphia, where two thirds of the housing predates 1990.

Housing stock

Of roughly 1,963 housing units, about 1,290 were finished in 1989 or earlier, which puts the median construction year at 1983. Suburban housing on basements dominates, on ground where soil depth over rock varies across short distances. Where rock is close, an excavated basement sits in backfill that fills rather than drains; where soil is deeper, a seasonal water table governs instead.

Climate and water risk

July is the wettest month here at 4.7 inches, part of an annual 48.61 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from FORT WASHINGTON 0.8 NW, 2.3 miles off. July brings the wettest month as intense convective cells. Headwater streams here respond within the hour because their catchments are small and increasingly developed, and there is limited storage in the ground before water starts moving along the rock.

Common water damage problems in Spring House

  • Depth to rock varying across short distances, so neighboring lots drain differently
  • Headwater streams responding within the hour to an intense cell
  • A hole cut in rock and packed with looser material that gathers what reaches it
  • Housing added to small catchments faster than the channels were enlarged

Frequently asked questions

It arrives at the wall long after the sky has cleared.

Late water has traveled along the rock rather than across the surface. It soaks through the soil, meets stone it cannot pass, and runs the top of it until something interrupts, which takes time and can bring it from beyond the property line. Surface flow shows up during the storm. That gap is genuine evidence and it points the remedy below ground rather than at the gutters.

How would we find out how deep the rock is under our lot?

A test pit is the cheap answer and it takes an afternoon. Dig down beside the house during a wet spell and you learn two things at once: how far it is to rock, and whether water is standing in the material around the foundation. That is more useful than any general statement about the area, because depth here changes over a few dozen feet and it is the whole reason neighbors get different results from identical work.

The stream behind us is small and it came over.

Small headwater channels do exactly that. The catchment above has been developing, so it sheds quickly, and there is very little room in the channel to take a rise, which means the level jumps rather than the water spreading. It drops as fast as it came. Watching it once during heavy rain tells you more than any amount of looking at it in August.
