About America Water Damage

Connecting You with Water Damage Restoration Contractors in Merrillville, IN

America Water Damage is a nationwide network, and in Indiana that means one thing: connecting people who have water in their property with independent restoration contractors near them. The contractor does the drying and the repairs. We make the introduction and explain what to expect. NOAA's state climate summary for Indiana reports an increase in 2-inch extreme precipitation events, with the highest number on record in 2005 to 2009. On June 6 and 7, 2008, heavy rain on saturated ground caused severe flooding that affected 39 counties, and in 2015 Indianapolis had its wettest July on record at 8.7 inches above normal. The benchmark remains the Great Flood of March 1913, described as the worst flood in Indiana history, with more than 100 deaths. For owners in Merrillville, IN and across Indiana, that record is a reason to act early when water appears. Reach out at any time and we will connect you with a nearby restoration contractor. They handle the inspection, the drying plan and the repairs directly with you.

Why choose us for water damage restoration

Why Use Our Network in Merrillville, IN

In Indiana, our role is to shorten the search. We take the address and the details of the loss, then connect the owner with an independent contractor who works in that area and handles that type of damage. We do no restoration work ourselves. The State of Indiana says the only construction contractors it licenses are plumbers, through the Plumbing Commission, and that many other areas require local licensing that varies by city and county. The credential to check depends on where the property is, so ask which local license the contractor holds for your city or county and confirm it with that office. Whichever contractor you speak with in Merrillville, IN, ask for a written scope and proof of insurance before agreeing to anything. Any insurance claim is handled between you and the contractor. We do not set or influence prices. The quote comes from the contractor.

Frequently asked questions about water damage restoration

Questions Merrillville, IN homeowners and businesses ask most about water damage restoration — and clear, honest answers.

Contact Us
Does homeowners insurance cover water damage in Merrillville, IN?
It depends on what caused the water and on the wording of your policy, so the only reliable answer comes from your policy documents or your insurer. As a general pattern, sudden and accidental losses such as a burst pipe or a failed appliance hose are treated differently from gradual leaks and seepage. Flood is usually handled under a separate flood policy. We cannot tell you what your policy covers, and a restoration contractor in Merrillville, IN cannot either. What you can do right away is photograph the damage and report the loss to your insurer.
Will the restoration contractor work with my insurance company?
We are not a restoration contractor, so we do not bill insurers or handle claims ourselves. We connect you with an independent local contractor, and any insurance billing is arranged directly between you and that contractor. Many restoration contractors are used to documenting losses for insurers, but practices vary from company to company. Before work starts, ask the contractor how they handle claims, what documentation they provide and what you would owe if the insurer pays less than the invoice.
What can be saved and what has to be removed?
It depends mainly on the material and on how contaminated the water was. Hard, non-porous surfaces can usually be cleaned and dried. Porous materials such as carpet pad, insulation and drywall are harder to save, and after contact with sewage or floodwater they generally have to be removed. Solid wood and structural framing can often be dried in place if the work starts early. A contractor should tell you what they plan to remove and why before they do it, and you can ask for that in writing.
How are contractors matched to my property in Merrillville, IN?
We match on two things: where the property is and what kind of loss it has. A clean-water leak in a single room, a sewage backup and a flooded commercial unit call for different capabilities, so we ask a few questions about the source of the water, the areas affected and the type of building. We then connect you with an independent contractor who serves Merrillville, IN and handles that type of work. The contractor, not us, inspects the property and decides what the job involves.
What should I check before hiring a restoration contractor?
Check the credential that applies where you live, because the rules differ by state. Some states license contractors or require registration, some leave it to cities and counties, and a few license mold work separately. Ask for the license or registration number and verify it with the issuing body. Ask for proof of general liability insurance and, if they have employees, workers compensation cover. Ask for a written scope of work before anything is removed. Many restoration firms also hold IICRC certification, which you can ask to see.
