Why Meggett Calls Us for Water Damage Restoration
Restoring a water-damaged home means coordinating several jobs at once. The difference between a clean claim and a mess usually comes down to documentation and sequencing.
Restoration Equipment on Board
Restoration contractors carry LGR dehumidifiers, axial and centrifugal air movers, hydroxyl or HEPA air scrubbers, and thermo-hygrometers. That gear lets them control the drying environment instead of hoping it dries.
Licensed, Insured & Independent
The network includes licensed and insured independent restorers, many trained to the IICRC S500 water damage standard. Ask about their training and verify credentials before work begins.
Estimates Your Adjuster Recognizes
Many restorers write estimates in Xactimate, the same software most insurance carriers use. That means fewer line-item disputes and a faster approval.
Round-the-Clock Local Dispatch
Every hour of delay lets water travel further into framing and flooring. Calls are routed to an available restorer near Meggett day or night.
Water Damage Restoration Services, Stage by Stage
A full restoration usually includes each of these stages.
Inspection & Moisture Mapping
The restorer identifies the water source, its category, and its class, then maps every wet material on a floor plan. Every later reading is compared against that baseline.
Controlled Psychrometric Drying
Drying is managed by the numbers: temperature, relative humidity, and grains per pound (GPP) of moisture in the air. Dehumidifiers and air movers are adjusted daily until materials reach their drying goal.
Contents Pack-Out & Protection
Furniture is lifted on blocks or tabs, and fragile or valuable items can be inventoried and packed out to a dry location. A photo inventory backs up your contents claim.
Cleaning & Antimicrobial Treatment
Affected surfaces are cleaned and treated with an EPA-registered antimicrobial to keep microbial growth from starting. Air scrubbers can run during the job to keep dust and odors down.
Reconstruction & Final Clearance
With dry readings confirmed, the rebuild covers drywall, cabinets, flooring, and trim. You get a closing drying report and a walk-through at the end.

What's the difference between water damage restoration and mitigation?
Mitigation is the emergency work that stops damage from getting worse: extraction, drying, and controlled tear-out. Restoration covers that plus the cleaning, contents care, and reconstruction that return the property to its pre-loss condition.
What is the IICRC S500 standard?
The S500 is the industry's standard of care for professional water damage restoration. It covers water categories and classes, drying procedures, safety, and documentation, and many carriers expect restorers to follow it.
How long does Water Damage Restoration take?
Drying typically takes three to five days, and reconstruction can take one to several weeks depending on materials and scope. Ordering cabinets or matching flooring often sets the pace.
Will my furniture and belongings be saved?
Many items can be cleaned and dried, especially hard furniture and non-porous goods. Upholstery, mattresses, and particleboard exposed to contaminated water are often not salvageable, and the restorer will document those for your claim.
Do I need to be home during the restoration?
You'll want to be there for the first visit and the walk-through. During daily monitoring visits, many homeowners arrange access instead of staying home.
