Signs to look for

When to call us for multi family water damage

For the written restoration scope, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

A resident on a lower floor reports a ceiling stain with no leak of their own

As our specialists document the loss, that is a downstairs symptom of an upstairs source, in many cases a supply line, a toilet or a washer above.

Corridor carpet is dark or damp along one wall

During our assessment, water leaving a unit runs under the entry door and into the corridor, because that threshold is the lowest gap in the wall.

Water is showing at the bottom of a party wall in the neighboring unit

As our specialists document the loss, a party wall or demising wall between apartments is in many cases framed on the deck without a seal at the bottom plate.

Your master meter reading or water bill jumped with no explanation

During our assessment, on a master metered property a running toilet or a slab side leak shows up as consumption before anyone sees water.

The in unit water heater closet has a wet floor or a stained wall base

From the first moisture reading, in unit water heaters sit in a closet on a finished floor, commonly with a pan that has no drain line.

An in unit washer overflowed and the unit below smells musty

As our specialists document the loss, washer discharge is gray water and it goes straight through the floor assembly at the pan or the standpipe.

What happens

How we handle multi family water damage

Our restoration specialists adjust the work to the areas and materials involved, the measured reach of the water, and the materials that can be saved.

Mapping the full affected footprint before equipment is placed

During our assessment, we walk the reported unit, the units beside it, the unit below and the corridor outside it. From the first moisture reading, a moisture meter and a thermal imaging camera define the wet boundary in each space.

Working with your on site maintenance team

For the written restoration scope, your tech in many cases gets there first, and that matters more than anything we do in hour one.

Access coordination for occupied units

During our assessment, we work from lockbox codes, master keys, gate and fob access, and your entry notice requirements.

Resident notices written for you

For the written restoration scope, we supply door notice text your office can put out the same day, covering what is happening, where equipment will sit, and how long it runs.

Common area extraction and drying

During our assessment, corridor carpet, stairwells, elevator lobbies, laundry rooms and trash rooms are extracted and dried as their own areas.

Floor assembly and gypcrete drying decisions

From the first moisture reading, gypcrete underlayment and the sound mat under the finish floor hold water long after the surface feels dry.

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

We review with you the written restoration scope and price before you approve the job. These examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situation	What the estimate may include	Typical range
One room of an occupied unit, clean water, extraction and three to four days of drying	During our assessment, national estimate for one affected room inside a lived in unit. From the first moisture reading, common areas and neighboring units are priced separately.	$1,200 to $3,000
One unit plus the unit below through the floor ceiling assembly	During our assessment, national estimate covering both units, ceiling work below and cavity drying between them.	$2,500 to $8,000
Vertical stack loss, four to six units plus the corridor, about a week	As our specialists document the loss, national estimate for a multi floor loss with per unit documentation. For the written restoration scope, reconstruction and finishes are not included.	$12,000 to $45,000
Multi family building work priced by affected area, clean water	For the written restoration scope, national estimate across units and common areas, including equipment, monitoring and per space reporting.	$3 to $7 per square foot
Multi family work on washer or drain water	From the first moisture reading, national estimate for gray water, where cushion comes out and affected spaces get a cleaning stage before release.	$4 to $9 per square foot
Multi family work on sewage water or water that came in from outside	For the written restoration scope, national estimate where porous material leaves the building and every affected space is cleaned before release.	$7 to $15 per square foot
Corridor and stairwell carpet extraction and drying, per floor	As our specialists document the loss, national estimate for common area soft flooring, including cushion removal where the water was not clean.	$1,500 to $5,000
Occupied unit contents handling and protection, per unit	During our assessment, national estimate for blocking furniture, protecting belongings and clearing the work area inside a lived in unit.	$150 to $600
Whole vacant unit dried during turnover, clean water	For the written restoration scope, national estimate for an empty unit worked continuously.	$2,000 to $5,500
After hours or overnight dispatch charge	For the written restoration scope, national estimate for the first visit outside business hours. From the first moisture reading, it is charged once, not per unit.	$100 to $400 nationally

How many units and common areas are wet
Each space needs its own metering, equipment, readings and file. Ten small impacted areas cost more than one large one of the same total size.
Vertical spread versus one floor
As our specialists document the loss, water down a plumbing stack means ceilings, floor assemblies and wall cavities on several levels.
Occupied units versus vacant units
From the first moisture reading, occupied work means appointment windows, notices, contents moved and equipment placed around furniture and people.
Floor assembly type
During our assessment, gypcrete over the deck with a sound mat under the finish floor is slow to dry and sometimes forces the covering up.
Common area and corridor involvement
Corridor carpet, stairwells, lobbies and shared laundry rooms are separate scopes with their own equipment and records. They also in many cases belong to ownership rather than a resident.
Access, scheduling and after hours work
From the first moisture reading, entry notice rules, quiet hours and resident availability all shape the schedule.

Why timing matters

What can happen when the area stays wet

Moisture can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

Water keeps moving down the stack while you assess the first unit

From the first moisture reading, every hour of assessment is an hour the plumbing stack chase and floor assembly keep feeding lower floors.

Habitability becomes a legal question rather than a maintenance one

As our specialists document the loss, a resident with a wet bedroom and no answer starts making their own arrangements and their own record.

Gypcrete and sound mat hold water long enough to wreck your schedule

For the written restoration scope, lightweight gypsum concrete and the mat under the finish floor release moisture slowly.

Corridor carpet spreads humidity into dry units

During our assessment, a wet corridor is a shared reservoir with every unit door opening onto it.

Helpful service information

What to know about multi family water damage

First identify the short explanation. Open a card if you want a little more detail.

What is happening inside the property

From the first moisture reading, the plumbing stack and its chase carry water straight down through floors, which is why a fourth floor supply failure can show up in a first floor ceiling.

Read the explanation

During our assessment, water moves through a stacked building along paths that are built in, not accidental. From the first moisture reading, the plumbing stack and its chase carry water straight down through floors, which is why a fourth floor supply failure can show up in a first floor ceiling.

How the next step is decided

Many buildings use lightweight gypsum concrete, known as gypcrete, poured over the deck for fire and sound performance, commonly with an acoustic sound mat under the finish flooring.

Read the explanation

The floor assembly is what makes multi family drying different from single family drying. Many buildings use lightweight gypsum concrete, known as gypcrete, poured over the deck for fire and sound performance, commonly with an acoustic sound mat under the finish flooring.

What may change the work

Equipment is placed away from beds and shared walls, and dehumidifier condensate runs to a drain so no resident is emptying a bucket.

Read the explanation

Drying an occupied building is a logistics discipline as much as a moisture one. Equipment is placed away from beds and shared walls, and dehumidifier condensate runs to a drain so no resident is emptying a bucket.
