You've probably just:

- Shut off a supply line
- Replaced a water heater
- Repaired a slab leak
- Stopped an active water issue
But now you're standing there looking at:
- Wet floors

This Page Is For
- Plumbing technicians in the field

- Supervisors and dispatchers
- Office staff supporting field techs
If you're the one getting asked "what do we do about all this?" — this is for you.
The Situation You Run Into Every Day
You fix the problem. But the job doesn't feel finished. Because now there's:
- Water damage inside the home
- Contents that can't stay where they are
- Flooring that may need to come out
- A homeowner who doesn't know the next step
- An insurance claim about to start
And you're stuck being the first person they ask.
The Gap Nobody Explains
Most homeowners think: plumber fixes everything. But in reality:
- Plumber → stops the source
- Mitigation → dries the structure
- Packout → handles contents
- Contractor → rebuilds
We're that third step — the one nobody understands until they're in it.
Where We Step In
Right after you fix the leak, we take over the contents side:
- Furniture and belongings removed
- Items documented for insurance
- Salvageable vs non-salvageable separated
- Contents protected from further damage
- Stored in a climate-controlled environment
- Returned after repairs are complete
So you're not standing there trying to explain something outside your scope.
What This Does For You
When you have someone to call:
- You don't get stuck in long homeowner conversations
- You look like you know exactly what comes next
- You help the customer immediately
- You keep the job moving forward
- You become a trusted resource — not just a plumber
That matters more than people think.
What Homeowners Ask You (And What You Can Say)
They ask:
- "What do we do with all this stuff?"
- "Is this covered by insurance?"
- "Do we need to move everything out?"
- "How fast does this need to happen?"
You don't need to explain everything. You just say:
"There's a company that handles the contents side — we'll get them out here."
Jobs We Get From Plumbing Calls
We step into situations like:
- Slab leaks under hardwood floors
- Burst pipes in walls or ceilings
- Water heater failures
- Refrigerator or dishwasher line breaks
- Multi-room flooding
- Slow leaks that turned into major damage
Especially when contents are already affected — or construction is coming next.
When to Call Us
Call us when:
- The leak is fixed but damage is visible
- Contents are wet or at risk
- The homeowner is overwhelmed
- Flooring or cabinets are affected
- Mitigation is about to start
- You know the job is bigger than just plumbing
Earlier = smoother job for everyone.

This Is How Jobs Actually Flow
A clean job looks like this:
- 1. You fix the leak
- 2. We handle contents
- 3. Mitigation dries the structure
- 4. Contractor rebuilds
- 5. Contents go back
When this flow is followed: jobs move faster, homeowners stay calmer, and everything is documented correctly.
Why This Matters More Than You Think
You're the first person in the house. That means you shape what happens next.
If you give them the right next step:
- They trust you more
- They remember you
- They refer you
- They call you again

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What should a homeowner do after a leak is fixed?
Document damage with photos, contact insurance, and bring in mitigation and packout as needed. The faster contents are addressed, the cleaner the claim tends to be.
Do plumbers handle contents?
No. Plumbers stop the source of the water. Contents handling — packout, inventory, storage, and pack-back — is a separate scope handled by a contents crew.
How fast should contents be removed after water damage?
Within 24–48 hours is ideal to prevent secondary damage and mold growth, especially on porous items, wood furniture, and electronics.
Is packout covered by insurance?
In most water damage claims, yes. Packout, climate-controlled storage, and pack-back are standard Xactimate line items on covered losses.
Do you work with plumbing companies directly?
Yes. We coordinate with plumbing techs, dispatch, and supervisors across Dallas–Fort Worth on active jobs every week.
Can you respond quickly?
Yes. Many of our calls come directly from active plumbing jobs. Call or text and we'll tell you the same day.
Do you bill the carrier directly?
Yes — direct-to-carrier in Xactimate. The homeowner isn't paying out-of-pocket and we never collect deductibles.
What areas do you cover?
All of Dallas–Fort Worth, including Highland Park, Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Allen, Southlake, Fort Worth, and surrounding suburbs.
Leak Fixed — Now What?
