What should I do immediately after water damage?

First, ensure everyone's safety and evacuate if necessary. Then call NBE immediately at 707-544-5778 for 24/7 emergency response. Turn off water at the main valve if safe to do so, move valuables to higher ground, and document damage with photos. We typically arrive within hours to begin water extraction and prevention of further damage.

Yes. NBE Property Restoration operates 24/7/365. We maintain emergency response crews ready to dispatch at any time, day or night, including weekends and holidays. Our average response time is within 2 hours of your call.

We hold General Contractor License #1050494 and are Diamond Certified — the only Diamond Certified mold remediation company in the North Bay.

How do you prevent mold growth after water damage?

Our immediate response includes professional water extraction, structural drying with industrial equipment, dehumidification, and antimicrobial treatment.

How long does water damage restoration take?

The timeline depends on severity. Water extraction typically takes a few hours; structural drying takes 3-5 days using industrial dehumidifiers and air movers. Reconstruction and repairs can take 1-4 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline after our initial assessment and moisture mapping.
