 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have a great experience with Four Winds Restoration and specifically with Shawn. We had a huge water leak from upstairs toilets, to a point that the walls in the bathroom downstairs were completely wet. You could press a finger on the wall and leave the print! Shawn came the same day we called him, and installed a few fans and dehumidifier. He came in to check in a few days, and he added a couple more fans a few extra fays, with no extra charge. After a week, our walls and ceilings are completely dry now and we're waiting to get the walls sand and painted. Overall, very happy with my experience with Shaw. He was responsive, on time, and professional.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely top tier service from these guys. Had a leak from my next door neighbour, who tried to change his bath spout on his own and as result the insulated wall separating our units + 4 other walls were wet and probably had been for over a week before I noticed. Our strata's restoration company quoted over 5K just dry the walls and said the joint wall would 100% have to be demo'd and replaced. Called 4winds and Shawn was very reassuring on the phone that mold wasn't 100% certain and they could be onsite the same day to fix the issue at a fraction of the price. After 4 days of getting a bunch of fans and a dehumidifier going we dried every wall including the insulated one and now the only thing I need to replace are two pieces of baseboards. Cannot thank these guys enough and Shawn was super friendly, honest, and quick to respond to questions and concerns. Would give a 6th star if possible!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent service, quick response, and great repair work. I had a water leak from an old laundry machine at my place. Shawn came right away to inspect the damage and to dry everything. Luckily, only a small area of the floor needed to be replaced (included removing and reinstalling the hot water tank) and the stain in the ceiling below was painted. The team finished everything in one day and it looks great. They also installed an additional power outlet for the new dryer.

Frequently Asked Questions About Water Damage

How quickly should I respond to water damage?

Immediate action is crucial. Water damage worsens by the hour, with mold beginning to grow within 24-48 hours. Call our emergency line as soon as you discover water damage to prevent secondary issues like structural damage and mold growth.

Will my insurance cover water damage restoration?

Most homeowners insurance policies cover sudden, accidental water damage like burst pipes or appliance failures. However, coverage varies by policy. We work directly with insurance companies to handle claims and can help determine what’s covered.

How long does the water damage restoration process take?

The timeline depends on the extent of damage and type of affected materials. Most residential projects take 3-5 days for complete drying, though larger losses may take longer. Our technicians monitor the drying process daily to ensure efficiency.

Is it safe to stay in my home during water damage restoration?

It depends on the extent and type of water damage. For clean water damage limited to a small area, you may be able to stay. For extensive damage or contaminated water (grey or black), we may recommend temporary relocation for health and safety reasons.

How do you detect hidden moisture in walls and floors?

We use advanced moisture detection equipment including infrared cameras, moisture meters, and thermal imaging to locate hidden moisture that might not be visible to the naked eye. This technology ensures we find and address all affected areas.

Can you save my wet carpet and padding?

In many cases, yes. If addressed quickly and the water is clean, we can often save carpet and sometimes padding. However, if the water is contaminated or has been present for an extended period, replacement may be necessary for health and safety.

What precautions should I take while waiting for your team to arrive?

If safe to do so, turn off the water source, remove small valuables from wet areas, and mop or blot excess water. Don’t use household vacuums on water, avoid electrical hazards, and don’t walk on wet carpet if the subfloor might be compromised.

Does water damage always lead to mold?

Not if properly dried within 24-48 hours. Our rapid response and thorough drying process significantly reduces the risk of mold growth. We also apply antimicrobial treatments when necessary to prevent mold development.
