Before we leaveUnderstanding the cost
We spell out the recommended work and price before you approve the job. These examples show what may change the price breakdown.
| Common situation | What the estimate may include | Typical range |
|---|---|---|
| Affected area up to about 1,500 square feet in a commercial suite, clean water, three to five drying days | National price breakdown. The per foot band applies to the metered wet area, which is as a rule smaller than the whole suite. | $3,000 to $12,000 |
| One commercial floor or roughly 5,000 to 10,000 square feet | National price breakdown. Larger footprint, many more equipment days and more project coordination. | $12,000 to $45,000 |
| Commercial water removal billed by affected area, clean water | National price breakdown. Higher than residential rates due to access, sealed work area and paperwork demands. | $4 to $9 per square foot |
| Commercial water removal on contaminated water | National price breakdown. Adds protective work, cleaning, disinfection and controlled disposal over the same area. | $9 to $18 per square foot |
| After hours dispatch on the first visit | National price breakdown for the after hours call out. Overnight shift labor for a full crew is priced separately. | $100 to $400 |
