What we do
Water damage restoration in Romulus, MI, from the first call to the last repair
Water damage restoration is the work of removing water from a building, drying every material it soaked, cleaning what can be saved and repairing what cannot. In Romulus that can mean a split supply line in a ranch off Wayne Road or a flooded basement after a summer cloudburst. Our 24/7 emergency line is where all of it starts.
Restoration and repair are two halves of one job. Restoration is the emergency half, with water extraction, drying equipment and moisture readings. Repair is the rebuild half, which replaces drywall, flooring, trim and paint once the structure tests dry.
Every call begins with a short conversation about where the water came from, how far it has spread and whether anyone is at risk. We explain the scope and the price before work starts, so you know the plan before a crew touches anything.
Water still spreading? Call the emergency line now
The line is open 24/7. If you can reach the main shutoff safely, close it before you dial.

View serviceThe process
How an emergency call turns into a dry house
You call the 24/7 line
A person asks where the water started, how much there is and whether power or sewage is involved. You get safety steps for the minutes before we arrive.
We scope the loss
We check moisture with meters and thermal imaging, then explain what needs to come out, what can dry in place and what it will cost.
Extraction and drying
Extractors remove standing water. Air movers and LGR dehumidifiers dry the structure while daily readings track progress.
Repair and rebuild
Once readings reach drying goals we replace drywall, insulation, flooring and finishes so the room is usable again.
Repair
Water damage repair once the structure is dry
Repair begins only after the building tests dry, because closing a wall over wet framing just hides the problem. A moisture meter reading on the studs and subfloor tells us when the structure is ready. Many professionals follow the ANSI/IICRC S500 standard for water damage restoration when they set drying goals and classify water, and we use it as a reference too.
The rebuild itself is ordinary construction work. Wet drywall and insulation come out in measured cuts, new board goes in, and flooring, trim and paint follow. We scope each of those steps in writing, so repair does not turn into a second surprise bill.
Some homeowners want only the water removed and drying done, then hire their own contractor for the rebuild. That is a fair way to work, and we will write the drying documentation so another contractor can pick up from there.
Local conditions
What water losses in Romulus tend to look like
On July 28, 2025 the National Weather Service in Detroit recorded 3.31 inches of rain in Romulus in about an hour and a half, with flooded roads, stranded vehicles and downed power lines across the area. A downpour like that can overload floor drains and window wells anywhere in the city, so check your lowest level first and call if you find water.
It was not the first time. In August 2014 the weather service reported 4 to 6 inches of rain in about four hours across Wayne, southern Oakland and Macomb counties. Events like these are why we wrote the storm water damage page and the flood damage page first.
Winter brings a different pattern. The National Weather Service 1991 to 2020 normals for Detroit show about 34 inches of precipitation and 45 inches of snow a year, so freeze and thaw cycles reach the plumbing every season. A pipe that splits behind a wall is a burst pipe job, and one that thawed after a cold snap is covered on the frozen pipe page.
Romulus covers about 36 square miles, with 25,178 residents and 10,280 housing units at the 2020 census, plus Detroit Metropolitan Airport and the I-94 and I-275 corridors. Our address is 9219 Wayne Road, ZIP 48174, and we also serve the city's other ZIP code, 48184, along with areas like Five Points, Preston and the Vining Road Development District. Because homes and businesses here vary so much, we ask about the building before we plan the job.

Why call us
What you can expect when you call
A person answers
The 24/7 emergency line is answered by someone who asks about the source, the spread and any safety risk.
Scope and price first
We explain the work and the cost before it starts, in plain language you can compare.
Documented for your claim
Photos, moisture readings and an itemized scope help your insurer see what happened. Your insurer makes the coverage decision.
Local knowledge
We know Wayne County storms, housing and utilities well enough to ask the right questions on the first call.
Questions people ask
Yes. The emergency line is open 24/7, including nights, weekends and holidays. Call, describe the situation and we will tell you what to do while the next steps are arranged.
If it is safe, stop the source by closing the main water valve. Turn off power to wet areas only if you can reach the panel without stepping in water, and stay out of any room with water near outlets.
Move valuables out of the wet area, take photos of the damage for your insurer and then call the emergency line.
Restoration is the emergency work of removing water and drying the structure. Repair is the rebuild that follows, such as new drywall, flooring and paint. Many jobs include both, and some homeowners hire a separate contractor for repair.
It depends on how much water there was, which materials got wet and the humidity in the house. Many jobs take several days. We take moisture readings each visit and stop when the structure reaches drying goals.
It depends on your policy and the cause. The Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services says flood damage is not covered under a standard homeowners policy and that limited water or sewer back-up coverage is available by endorsement. Call your insurer, describe it as water damage and ask what applies.
