About Broad Ripple

Water Damage Restoration in Broad Ripple

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.

We have served Broad Ripple homeowners through the full range of water emergencies, from burst pipes and basement flooding to mold remediation and sewage cleanup. Whatever the source, our Tanglewood crew responds 24/7 and works with your insurance carrier on approved claims.

The First Hour

How Should You Spend the First Hour After Water Damage in Broad Ripple?

Spend it on safety and on stopping the water, in that order. Our crew takes the photos for the photo report when they arrive, so put your energy into the valve and keeping everyone clear of the water.

1

Stay Away From Wet Outlets

If water has reached an outlet or anything plugged in, keep everyone out of that area. Switch off the breaker for it only if the panel is somewhere dry and you can reach it without walking through water.

2

Can't Find the Shutoff?

Check near the water meter or where the water line comes through the foundation wall, often in a basement or crawl space. If it's still hidden, call us and use towels to keep the water from spreading while you wait.

3

Keep Wet Items Separate

Set wet things apart from dry ones so the moisture doesn't spread. Hold on to damaged items for now, since our crew photographs them for the photo report before anything gets thrown away.

4

Tell Us What You See

When you call, tell us which rooms are wet and whether the water looks clean or dirty. That helps the crew bring the right equipment to your home in Broad Ripple.

Photo Report

What's Documented Before Anything Gets Torn Out in Broad Ripple?

Before any wet material leaves your home, our crew photographs it and notes the room it came from. Those photos sit next to the moisture readings in your photo report, so the condition of each room is on record before the cleanup starts.

The water's starting point and the path it took from there into the rooms it reached.

Each wet room, with wide shots of the space and close shots of the floor and the lower walls.

A sketch of the wet rooms with each reading marked on it, kept with the photos from the same visit.

Wet rugs and anything else you'd want to keep, photographed before it leaves the room.

Flooring that has to come up, photographed in place first so the report shows its condition.

We document damage with a photo report and walk you through what we found, so you can decide with your insurance company. Check your own policy before any rebuild starts. The Indiana Department of Insurance says not to make permanent repairs until your insurance company has inspected the damage.

Drying

Why Does Drying Take More Than One Visit in Broad Ripple?

Drying takes more than one visit because water soaks into drywall and wood framing, and it leaves those materials slowly. Our crew comes back to take readings and move equipment until each area tests dry.

1

Before the Crew Leaves

At the end of the first visit, the crew shows you what's running and where the readings were taken. Leave all of it on overnight, because EPA's mold guide ties mold prevention to drying wet materials within 24 to 48 hours.

2

Each Check After That

On each return visit, the crew takes readings at the same marked spots and writes them down with the date. If an area isn't drying as expected, they move or add equipment to reach it.

3

Asking About the Results

You can ask the crew what each final reading means and how they decided the area was ready. That explanation belongs in the record next to the numbers.

4

Putting Rooms Back

Once the rooms are dry, the next step is repairs like new drywall or flooring where material came out. The photo report shows what was there before, which helps whoever plans that work.
