If You're Standing in the Room After the Plumber Drove Off
If you're on this page right now, you're probably:
- looking at wet floors, soaked baseboards, and furniture you don't want to throw out
- wondering whether to start moving things or wait for the adjuster
- worried about mold setting in if rooms aren't dried within 24–48 hours
- told the leak is fixed but no one explained what comes next
- trying to figure out who pays for storage if the room has to be cleared
- scared of throwing out the wrong thing and hurting the claim
Drywall, hardwoods, and contents that stay wet past 48 hours start growing mold — and items moved or thrown out without documentation get denied by the carrier.
You don't need to figure this out alone.
Text us what's going on — we'll walk you through the next 24 hours.
Text Us — We Just Fixed a LeakYou don't need to call five companies or wait until tomorrow.
You need a contents crew on site today — documenting, packing, and clearing the rooms before mitigation starts drying.
Used by plumbers and homeowners across Dallas when the leak is fixed but the contents still need to be handled.
Quick Answer
If the plumber just fixed the leak:
- Photo every wet area and every affected item before anything is moved.
- Open the claim with your carrier today — don't wait.
- Get a mitigation crew set up to dry the structure.
- Get a contents crew on site to document, pack, and clear the rooms.
- Store contents in a climate-controlled facility during the rebuild.
- Pack-back when reconstruction is finished.
Most people skip step 4 — they let mitigation set airmovers around the furniture. Drying takes longer, contents get secondary damage, and the claim gets messier.
What Happens After the Plumber Leaves
Here's the order on a typical plumbing-loss claim — and where we step in:
- 01Plumber stops the source and confirms the property is safe
- 02Mitigation extracts water and sets airmovers for dryout
- 03We document, inventory, pack out, and store contents← This is us
- 04Reconstruction handles flooring, drywall, and rebuild
- 05We pack-back and place everything when the build is finished← This is us
You're at step 1 right now. We pick up at step 3 — today.
Who This Is For
For the Homeowner After the Leak
You don't have to figure out what gets thrown out and what gets saved. Every item gets photographed and condition-noted before it leaves the property. Soft goods, electronics, and specialty items get handled separately.
- no out-of-pocket — we bill the carrier direct
- no deductible collected at packout
- no awkward conversations with the adjuster about what's missing
- coordinated move-back when your house is done
You stay with your family. We handle the contents.
For the Plumber Who Just Capped the Line
You stopped the source. The homeowner is asking what happens next. Hand them a real answer — same-day contents crew, direct-bill to carrier, no callback to you about the contents side.
- same-day dispatch across DFW
- no markup on your invoice — we're a separate vendor
- your customer gets handled — and remembers you sent help
- we coordinate with whatever mitigation team you call
You stay on plumbing. We stay on contents.
For the Adjuster Carrying the Water File
Item-level photo inventory, condition reports, and Xactimate line items aligned with the structural scope. No surprises when the contents portion of the claim closes.
Documentation starts the day we arrive.
