Rapid Response When You Need It Most

Every minute water sits in your home causes more damage. Floors warp, drywall absorbs moisture, mold begins growing within 24-48 hours, and restoration costs increase dramatically. That's why immediate professional response is critical.

When you call Utah Water Damage Services for an emergency, you're calling a local, locally-ownedcompany (not a national call center). We answer our phones live, dispatch immediately, and arrive ready to work. No waiting, no runaround, no delays.

60-90 Minute Arrival Time

Our goal is to arrive within 60-90 minutes for Salt Lake County emergencies. We maintain fully stocked emergency response vehicles and on-call technicians to meet this commitment.

Fully Equipped Emergency Vehicles

Our trucks carry industrial water extractors, commercial dehumidifiers, air movers, moisture detection equipment, and everything needed to begin restoration immediately. We don't need to go back for equipment, we arrive ready to work.

IICRC Certified Emergency Technicians

All our emergency response technicians hold IICRC certification in Water Restoration and Applied Structural Drying. They know how to handle any water damage scenario safely and effectively.

Immediate Water Extraction

We start extracting water the moment we arrive. The faster water is removed, the less damage occurs. Our truck-mounted and portable extractors remove standing water quickly.

Common Water Damage Emergencies We Handle

Burst Pipes

Frozen pipes that burst or pressurized pipes that rupture can release hundreds of gallons throughout your home. We respond immediately to extract water and dry affected structures before mold develops.

Appliance Failures

Water heaters, washing machines, and dishwashers can fail catastrophically. A 40-50 gallon water heater can flood multiple rooms. We handle the water damage while you arrange appliance replacement or repair.

Storm Flooding and Roof Leaks

Heavy rains, wind-driven rain, and roof damage can cause significant flooding. We extract water, tarp damaged roofs, and begin mitigation immediately—even during active storms.

Sewage Backups

Sewage is a biohazard requiring immediate professional handling. Our EPA-certified technicians safely remove sewage, dispose of contaminated materials, and thoroughly sanitize affected areas using hospital-grade disinfectants.

Sump Pump Failures

When sump pumps fail during heavy rain or snowmelt, basements flood quickly. We provide emergency extraction and drying services to prevent extensive damage.

Supply Line Failures

Supply lines to toilets, sinks, and appliances can burst without warning. These pressurized lines release significant water quickly. We respond immediately to minimize damage.
