What Does Water Damage Restoration Cost?

Water damage restoration typically runs about $1,000 to $3,200 for a small clean-water leak and $3,000 to $13,000 for a flooded room, a basement or several rooms. Sewage and flood water usually push the bill higher, because contaminated materials are removed instead of dried in place. Rebuild work such as new drywall and flooring is priced separately after drying.

Small clean-water leak: $1,000 to $3,200. One room of carpet or hard floor, pumped out and dried with fans and a dehumidifier.
Room with wet drywall or flooring: $3,000 to $7,500. Adds the cut-out of baseboard, carpet pad or the lower part of the wall.
Flooded basement or several rooms: $5,000 to $13,000. More floor area, more machines and a longer drying period.
Sewage or contaminated flood water: $4,500 to $16,000. Porous materials are carried out, then surfaces are cleaned and treated before drying starts.
