Schedule Your Free Damage Assessment

Our Tanglewood inspection process is a room by room walkthrough designed to find every pocket of moisture, not just the obvious wet spots. Walls are measured with non penetrating meters at multiple heights, then confirmed with a penetrating pin meter where readings spike. Baseboards and trim are checked, subfloors probed, insulation pulled in suspect cavities, and behind cabinets, under sinks, around water heaters and washing machines, and along the basement perimeter and slab joints all get attention. A thermal imaging camera maps hidden cold spots where moisture is sitting behind drywall, and a hygrometer reads the ambient conditions in each affected room. Thorough mapping is what prevents the most expensive problem in water restoration on Tanglewood properties, hidden moisture that fuels mold colonization a month later when the homeowner thought the job was done.

I agree to be contacted by Tanglewood Water Restoration regarding my inquiry.

After a storm rolls through Hamilton County, Tanglewood homeowners face a triage question: what got wet, how wet, and what can be saved. Professional water damage assessment answers all three with moisture meters and photos, not guesses, before anything gets torn out or thrown away.

Pack out services move vulnerable contents out of the wet zone and into controlled storage: inventoried, photographed, and cleaned as needed. For serious Tanglewood losses, getting belongings out of the way lets structural drying run faster and protects the items themselves.

When the water stops and the drying's done, what should remain in your Tanglewood home is proof: photos, readings, warranty, and a house that feels like yours again. That's the finish line every job here runs toward.

About Us

Local Expertise, Real Results

Certified to the standards, dispatched when you call, and on the job until the readings say it is dry.

Aaron Christy founded Tanglewood Water Restoration on a principle that Tanglewood homeowners and property managers deserve a restoration contractor that operates like a real business. Documentation. Schedule reliability. Local crews. Insurance coordination. Aaron has been featured on FOX59, WISH TV, and RTV6 as a regional restoration expert. License #RC21100059.

Tanglewood Water Restoration provides water damage restoration in Tanglewood and the surrounding Washington Township neighborhoods, from Broad Ripple and Nora down through Allisonville and Devonshire. Our service area covers Tanglewood, the broader 46220 ZIP, and Marion County as a whole, with crews dispatched throughout central Indiana for residential and commercial losses. The work is done by IICRC certified technicians on a licensed and insured crew, not partner temp work, so the same people who answer the call are the ones who show up with the trucks. For Tanglewood homeowners with significant equity in midcentury homes, that continuity matters when a basement is six inches deep at midnight.

Every Tanglewood job follows the IICRC S500 standard for water damage restoration, and any mold remediation work is performed to the IICRC S520 standard. That means an initial moisture assessment with thermal imaging and penetrating meters before equipment moves in, controlled extraction matched to the Category of water present, structural drying with monitored air flow and dehumidification, and antimicrobial application when the contamination warrants it. We verify dry standard with logged readings before any reconstruction begins, because rebuilding over damp framing is how callbacks happen six weeks later. The standards exist for a reason, and we follow them on every loss.

Our Promise

Three commitments to every Tanglewood homeowner who calls us. First, fast emergency response any hour of the day or night, because water damage does not wait for business hours and neither do we. Second, IICRC certified technicians trained to the S500 standard for water and S520 for mold, with the equipment and methodology to back it up. Third, a free on site inspection before any work begins, and full coordination with your insurance carrier if you have an active claim.

Why Tanglewood Chooses Us

The Reasons This Works in Tanglewood

IICRC certified crews, thorough moisture mapping, and straightforward pricing for Tanglewood homeowners who want the job done correctly the first time.

around the clock Emergency Response

A burst supply line at 2 AM does not care that it is a holiday weekend. Tanglewood Water Restoration answers the 24 7 emergency line for Tanglewood any day, any hour, with priority dispatch and trucks already loaded with extraction equipment. The faster water leaves the structure, the less material has to be cut out later.

IICRC Certified to S500

Our technicians are IICRC certified and follow the S500 standard for every water loss. In practice that means proper Category determination before equipment placement, documented moisture mapping, and verified dry standard before reconstruction. It is the difference between a job that holds and a job that comes back as mold in six weeks.

Full Scope Under One Roof

Most restoration jobs in Tanglewood involve more than just drying. We handle extraction, structural drying, mold remediation, controlled demolition, and the reconstruction that follows, drywall through paint and trim. You are not left finding a separate contractor to rebuild what we tore out.

We Work With Your Carrier

Tanglewood homeowners filing a claim get full documentation support, photos, moisture readings, scope of work, and direct communication with your adjuster. We coordinate with most major insurance carriers so the claim moves cleanly. The mitigation gets justified properly and you are not stuck explaining drying logs to your carrier yourself.

Our Process

The Path From Tanglewood Emergency to Closeout

The first phase on any Tanglewood loss is moisture assessment and Category determination. A certified tech walks the property, identifies the source (broken copper supply line, dishwasher overflow, sewer backup, storm intrusion through a foundation crack), and maps the affected footprint with thermal imaging and meter readings. Water is classified as Category 1, 2, or 3 per IICRC S500, because the Category drives everything that follows, what gets dried in place, what gets demolished, what PPE the crew wears. This phase typically takes one to two hours depending on how far the water traveled.

Second phase is documentation and insurance coordination. Every affected area is photographed and video logged before mitigation equipment goes in, and a written moisture map with meter readings is built into the file. We make direct contact with your insurance adjuster, match the scope of work to your coverage, and document the mitigation justification per industry standard. Most Tanglewood homeowners never see this paperwork because we handle it directly with the carrier, but it is the reason claims close without disputes over what was necessary.

Third phase is drying execution and reconstruction. Air movers and dehumidifiers are placed per structural drying calculations sized to the affected square footage and material type, then monitored daily with logged readings until materials hit dry standard, meaning moisture content matched to unaffected reference materials. Demolition is performed only where drying in place is not viable. Then reconstruction begins, drywall, insulation, flooring, paint, trim, cabinetry, doors, all coordinated to complete the job and return your Tanglewood home to pre loss condition.

Rapid Emergency Dispatch

When you call the 24 7 line, a certified technician is dispatched with a truck already loaded with extraction equipment, dehumidifiers, air movers, and meters. No second trip for gear. Work begins on site as soon as we arrive at your Tanglewood property.

Category Determination

Every loss is classified Category 1, 2, or 3 per the IICRC S500 protocol, with meter readings logged and a written assessment delivered. The Category dictates what materials can be dried in place and what has to be removed. No guesswork, no shortcuts.

Insurance Carrier Coordination

We work with your insurance carrier, document scope and mitigation per industry standard, and communicate directly with your adjuster. You get a clean claim file with photos, readings, and justified scope. transparent invoicing at the end of the job.

Verified Dry Standard

Structures are monitored daily with logged moisture readings until materials hit dry standard matched to unaffected reference points. Reconstruction does not start until the drying is confirmed complete. That is how you avoid mold callbacks 30 days later.

What we see in Tanglewood

Water Damage Sources in Tanglewood

Tanglewood homes typically call us about these six water damage scenarios.

Tub and Shower Pan Leaks

Tub surrounds leak at the spout penetration, at the valve escutcheon, and where the deck meets the wall. Any of the three puts water behind the surround, soaking framing and subfloor without ever running across the bathroom floor.

Toilet Supply Line Leaks

The plastic supply line under a toilet is one of the most failure-prone plumbing parts in the home. A pinhole leak running unnoticed for hours can drop 30 to 50 gallons through ceilings and floors.

Fire Sprinkler Discharge

Freeze is the most common accidental discharge we see, usually in an unheated stairwell, attic, or unconditioned storage room. The head splits, the system charges it, and the building takes the flow until somebody closes the valve.

Heavy Rain and Saturated Ground

Surface water is a grading problem before it is a plumbing one. A patio pitched toward the house, a downspout ending at the wall, or a flower bed built up above the siding line all deliver rain exactly where it should not go.

Vacant Property Freeze

A loss discovered days after it started is a different scope than one caught in an hour. Water has been standing, humidity has been high, and growth has had time, so this work usually starts with containment before any drying equipment goes in.

Ice Dam Meltwater in the Wall

Heat escaping the ceiling melts snow on the deck above, the meltwater runs to the cold eave, and it refreezes into a dam. Water backs up behind that ice and gets drawn under the shingles by capillary action, which is how a five year old roof leaks in February.

How We Work

Three Simple Steps

From emergency call to job complete, we follow a disciplined IICRC-certified process on every Tanglewood water restoration project.

1

Water Emergency Intake

A single call starts the clock, and a crew is out the door within 2 hours. Trucks roll fully stocked, extraction through containment.

2

Documented Assessment

You see the map before we set a single air mover. Every line item traces back to a photo and a reading.

3

The Final Phase

We do not bill for equipment that is not running. Drying, cleaning, and reconstruction run as one continuous project.

Indiana Climate

Indiana Weather Drives Restoration Calls Year Round

Indiana weather drives most water damage calls in Tanglewood. Spring storms saturate soil along the Fall Creek corridor and push water through basement walls, January and February freeze thaw cycles burst supply lines in unconditioned spaces, and August humidity turns any unresolved moisture into a mold problem within weeks.

Spring Saturation Flooding

Central Indiana spring rains routinely drop three to six inches in short windows, saturating soil throughout the Fall Creek drainage corridor that borders Tanglewood. That hydrostatic pressure pushes water through foundation cracks, cove joints, and any weakness in basement walls. When the sump pump fails or cannot keep up, basements take on water fast. We extract, dry, and remediate.

Winter Pipe Bursts

Indiana freeze thaw cycles through January and February crack supply lines in unconditioned spaces, garages, exterior walls, crawls, and the unfinished sides of Tanglewood basements. A half inch copper line can release hundreds of gallons before anyone notices. We respond to burst pipe calls day and night, extract, dry, and rebuild what got soaked.

Severe Thunderstorm Runoff

Marion County summer storms have historically dumped enough rain to flood streets across the Allisonville Road corridor, including the August 2016 event that swamped multiple intersections near 62nd Street. Surface flooding finds basement window wells, walkout doors, and slab joints. When storm water enters a Tanglewood home, fast extraction limits how much material has to be removed.

Summer Humidity and Mold

July and August humidity in central Indiana keeps interior dew points high, and any unresolved moisture from a previous leak becomes a mold problem within weeks. Basements are the worst offenders. If you are seeing musty smells or surface growth in a finished basement, mold remediation per IICRC S520 is the right call, not a bottle of cleaner from the hardware store.

Where We Have Worked in Tanglewood

Restoration projects completed across Tanglewood's established and custom-home communities. Click any neighborhood for the specifics we have learned working there.

Tanglewood Estates is a named subdivision along the Allisonville Road corridor in the 46220 ZIP code of Indianapolis. Built predominantly in the postwar suburban era, homes here are typical midcentury construction with full basements, making basement water intrusion a primary restoration concern when sump pumps fail or ground saturation occurs after heavy rainfall. Original cast iron drain lines and aging municipal sewer connections in this era of construction are susceptible to root infiltration and sewage backup events. View Tanglewood Estates restoration details →
Allisonville is a neighboring northeast Indianapolis area directly adjacent to Tanglewood, characterized by midcentury housing in a wooded, suburban setting. The mature tree canopy common to this area contributes to root intrusion in older clay and cast iron sewer laterals, and storm driven surface flooding from impervious surfaces and saturated soils is a recurring pattern. Homes dispatched to in this area frequently present with crawl space moisture issues and basement seepage tied to the area's older drainage infrastructure. View Allisonville restoration details →
Broad Ripple, immediately south of the Tanglewood neighborhood boundary near 65th Street, contains some of Indianapolis's older residential stock, with many homes built between 1940 and 1969 and a number predating 1940. These older structures commonly have original galvanized or early copper plumbing that is well past its service life and at elevated risk for pinhole leaks and failure. The neighborhood's documented flooding history,including street flooding at 62nd and Allisonville Road during a 2016 storm,reflects the area's vulnerability to storm driven water intrusion and basement backflow events. View Broad Ripple restoration details →
Devonshire is a northeast Indianapolis residential area near the Tanglewood and Allisonville corridor, listed as a neighboring community in the 46220 rental and real estate market. Homes in this mid to late twentieth century suburban district typically feature full basements and copper supply plumbing showing age related vulnerability. Freeze thaw cycles common to central Indiana winters create recurring burst pipe exposure in uninsulated basement utility spaces and in homes where heating is temporarily interrupted. View Devonshire restoration details →
Glendale is a northeast Indianapolis neighborhood directly associated with the Tanglewood area's 46220 ZIP code and the Allisonville Road commercial and residential spine. Residential properties here follow the midcentury suburban pattern of the broader northeastern Marion County corridor, with full basements common and aging municipal sewer connections subject to Indianapolis's combined sewer overflow system. Storm events delivering several inches of rain in short windows routinely produce sewer backup and basement flooding calls throughout this district. View Glendale restoration details →

Common Questions

Common Questions About Our Tanglewood Work

Straight answers to the questions Tanglewood homeowners ask most.

Quickly, any hour of the day or night. Tanglewood Water Restoration runs a 24 7 emergency line for Tanglewood and the rest of Marion County, with crews dispatched on priority for active water losses. Trucks roll already loaded with extraction equipment, dehumidifiers, air movers, and meters, so work begins as soon as we arrive. On arrival a certified technician identifies the source, stops further spread where possible, and starts extraction while the rest of the assessment is performed. Call the emergency line as soon as you notice the loss, because every hour without extraction expands the affected footprint.
It depends on Category of water and scope of damage, but ranges are predictable. Most Category 1 jobs in Tanglewood (clean water from supply lines or appliance overflows) run $1,500 to $4,500. Category 2 losses (gray water from dishwashers, washing machines, toilet overflows without solids) typically run $3,000 to $8,000. Category 3 work (sewage, floodwater, long standing groundwater) runs $7,000 to $25,000 or more depending on contamination, demolition, and reconstruction scope. Every job starts with a free on site inspection that produces a written scope before any work begins.
Typically, sudden and accidental water damage is covered by most major insurance carriers, while gradual leaks that should have been noticed and repaired are generally excluded. A burst supply line, a failed water heater, or storm intrusion through a sudden opening usually qualifies. A slow drip behind a wall over months usually does not. Your deductible applies, and the carrier may have specific documentation requirements that we handle as part of the job. We work with your insurance carrier, coordinate with your adjuster, and document the loss and mitigation per industry standard. Call us and we can walk through your specific situation.
Yes. Our technicians are IICRC certified and the work follows the S500 standard for water damage restoration and the S520 standard for mold remediation. For Tanglewood homeowners that means proper Category determination on every loss, documented moisture mapping, verified dry standard before reconstruction, and containment and PPE protocol on any Category 3 or mold job. The standards exist because cutting corners on water and mold causes long term health and structural problems. Ask any restoration company about their certifications before they put equipment in your home.
On average, structural drying takes three to five days for a typical Category 1 loss in a Tanglewood home, five to seven days for Category 2, and seven to fourteen days or longer for Category 3 jobs involving contaminated water or significant demolition. Duration depends on how much material is saturated, what the materials are (drywall and carpet dry faster than hardwood and plaster), how deep the moisture penetrated, and ambient conditions during drying. We monitor daily with logged meter readings and pull equipment when materials match unaffected reference readings. Reconstruction adds additional time on top of the dry out.
Category 1 is clean water from a sanitary source, a broken copper supply line, a tub overflow, an ice maker line failure. Category 2 is gray water with some contamination, dishwasher and washing machine discharge, toilet overflow without solids, aquarium leaks. Category 3 is grossly contaminated black water, sewage backup, floodwater from rivers or storm drains, any water that has been standing long enough to grow bacteria. The Category drives the scope, Cat 1 can often be dried in place, Cat 3 requires containment, PPE, and removal of porous materials. We classify per IICRC S500 on every loss.
Typically, mold begins colonizing within 24 to 48 hours under the right conditions, organic material (drywall paper, wood, insulation), moisture, and moderate temperatures. Indiana summer humidity accelerates that timeline, especially in basements. Our prevention approach is to extract fast, dry thoroughly to verified standard, and apply antimicrobial where the situation warrants it. If you are reading this more than two days after the loss, assume mold is a risk and call for an inspection. Visible growth, musty smell, or any history of unresolved moisture is reason to bring in an IICRC S520 certified crew.
First, safety. If water is near electrical outlets, panels, or fixtures, shut off power to affected areas at the breaker. Second, stop the source if you can do it safely, the main water shutoff, the appliance valve, the toilet supply. Third, document with photos and video of every affected area before anything is moved or cleaned, this protects your claim. Fourth, contact your insurance carrier to open the claim. Then call us and we take it from there. Do not enter standing water if there is any chance it is contaminated or electrified.
Every truck rolls with commercial water extraction equipment, commercial dehumidifiers sized to the affected square footage, professional air movers, moisture meters (both penetrating and non penetrating), and a thermal imaging camera for hidden moisture detection. HEPA filtration and negative air machines come out for Category 3 and mold jobs. Hygrometers track ambient conditions during drying. Containment plastic, PPE, and antimicrobial are standard on contaminated losses. The point is to arrive ready to start extraction and drying on the first visit, not to leave and come back with the right gear.
Yes, we handle reconstruction. The same company that performs extraction, drying, and remediation also rebuilds, drywall, insulation, flooring, paint, trim, cabinetry, doors, and the finish work. One project manager, one schedule, one claim, and one final walk through. Most restoration outfits hand off to a separate general contractor after drying, which leaves the homeowner managing two crews and two billing cycles while the home sits in demolition. We keep the job under one roof from the first call until your Tanglewood home is back to pre loss condition.
