When water damage occurs, you need a team of professionals who can respond swiftly and effectively. At PNW Restoration, we are more than just water removal experts. We are your trusted partner in water damage restoration. Our experienced and certified professionals are available 24/7, ready to respond quickly and prevent further damage to your property.

By choosing PNW Restoration, you can rest assured that your property will be restored to its best condition, minimizing downtime and reducing stress.
When flood water gets into your walls, it can make the Sheetrock weak and fall apart. This can cause safety problems and more damage. We quickly remove the damaged Sheetrock and replace it with new material to stop more damage.
We use special tools to find all the water on your property and remove it. This helps prevent mold and mildew from growing and stops more damage from happening.
If water damage is not repaired, it provides the ideal environment for the growth of mold and mildew. People may get sick from this, and further harm may result. We clean, seal, and treat the area to prevent mold and mildew growth while also ensuring fresh and healthy air.
Your property is fixed by our professionals and returned to its original state. We prolong the life of what you own by shielding metal surfaces from rust and damage. We restore your property to its pre-damaged state, making it safe to use.
After you inform us about the damage, our restoration specialists will quickly arrive at your home or business to inspect the water damage. Our IICRC-certified water damage restoration experts will evaluate the cause and extent of the water damage to develop a prompt and effective restoration plan.
After the assessment, the next step is to extract all the standing water to prevent further water damage. Our experts will use powerful submersible pumps and industrial-strength vacuums for extraction. This quick action minimizes the risk of mold and deterioration of structural integrity.
Even after the water removal, dampness can persist in walls, floors, and other materials. This trapped moisture can cause swelling, warping, and other types of damage to your property. We use industry-grade dehumidifiers and specialized drying techniques to eliminate moisture.
We thoroughly clean and sanitize the affected area using antibacterial and antimicrobial treatments. Additionally, our team will assess all the impacted items to determine what can be restored.
The final step in our emergency water damage restoration process is to restore the water damage. Our team will restore the affected area to pre-damage condition by repairing minor damages like drywall installation. However, you may require a contractor if there is significant structural damage to the property.

Mai Green2024-07-26 We had an incredible experience with PNW Restoration after discovering water damage in our home. They were incredibly responsive, arriving at our house within a few short hours. As it was our first time dealing with a flood, we were grateful for their thorough approach. Bryan Becker, the Project Manager, and Nick Peterson, the Lead Water Technician, took the time to walk us through the damage and explain their plan to fix it. Throughout the entire process, they clearly communicated every step, ensuring we understood everything. Their daily check-ins were reassuring, and their over-communication, kept us informed and at ease. They even provided invaluable support during the frustrating insurance claim process. We highly recommend PNW Restoration for their professionalism, responsiveness, and excellent customer service. Thank you, Bryan and Nick, for making a stressful situation much more manageable! Tom Giamario2024-07-24 Fast and comprehensive mitigation response. Jakeb is caring and responsive. Kylie and Nick doing the work were professional and friendly while working hard. Restoration has been a little more difficult with scheduling and less than reliable subcontractors. Jennifer Humphrey2024-06-27 A recent small leak in a bathroom pipe has turned into a major restoration project. We were referred to PNW Restoration and I am so glad we were. Jakeb Shelton the project manager contacted us immediately and answered all our questions (we are novices) about what to expect from our insurance company and the project. He is handling contact with the insurance adjuster, saving us a multitude of headaches. Every one of the PNW employees who have worked on the demolition phase of our project (Kylie, Nick, Wade, Brett and all the others whose names I can't recall) have been polite, accommodating and unbelievably hard workers. Every question we have asked, no matter how minor, has been answered immediately and satisfactorily. The project continues into the rebuild phase and I am confident the employees we will work with in the future will be just as great. I cannot recommend PNW Restoration more highly. Awesome, awesome customer service, too! Tim Hoth2024-06-27 Jake was the project manager and helped take care of a sewer line issue I was having. Brett, Kylie, and Noe came and did a tremendous job making sure all of my furniture and hardwood flooring was covered and took care of doing new vapor barrier and insulation and water cleanup under my house with little room to work in. They were flexible on timing and made sure cleanup was done well! Jen Jen2024-06-24 Based on my tenants’ experience with PNW, the company performed quality work and the staff are thoughtful about the tenants’ needs. I am sincerely grateful for this positive feedback. Steve Nielsen2024-06-06 Bryan at PNW has been terrific in our repair of our house. Excellent service and responsive. Recommend very highly. Josie Wolf2024-06-03 Thank you, PNW for being available on short notice next day bases. We really appreciate you coming out to our location. Johanna Hastay2024-05-23 PNW Restoration came to my rescue after a water damage event required the removal and demolition of my entire kitchen down to the subfloor. Jake was my remediation project manager and his team, especially Wade, Brett, and Matthew were amazing! Everyone has been extremely responsive, helpful, tidy, fun, and supportive during a very stressful time, all while helping me with my insurance company. They are a great company and willing to go above and beyond. They’ve provided all the guidance and care that you could ask for and I look forward to working with them to get the kitchen back up and running. Lindsay Prange2024-05-14 Had a great experience with Jake and Bryan from PNW Restoration! They were prompt and professional with scheduling and showed up exactly when they said they would. They got right to work and conducted a thorough inspection of our crawlspace, providing a detailed report of exactly how they could help mitigate our mold concerns. Highly recommended! Christine McCulloch2024-02-09 We really appreciate the work that PNW team did when we had major water damage from our attic, 2 floors and the crawl space. They were all extremely professional, always gave me a call to make sure that someone would be home when they came, and they respected the house and space when they were in it. They also outsourced some stuff and made sure those teams also represented them well. In all, PNW team were genuinely wonderful people and made one of the hardest periods of our life, manageable.

Taking immediate action after the water damage is crucial to prevent further issues. Here are some key steps to take after water damage:
Common signs of water damage include water strains, peeling paint, a musty odor, a warped floor, damp/wet carpets, and visible mold growth.
Water damage restoration coverage can vary significantly based on your insurance coverage policy. Standard homeowners insurance policy covers certain types of water damage costs. We will work with your insurance company to help you navigate the water damage restoration insurance claim process.
In some cases, it may be safe to stay at home during the restoration process. However, if there is significant damage to the property's structural integrity or mold growth, it is best to temporarily relocate until restoration is complete.
The cost of water damage restoration may vary depending on the type and extent of the damage.
Here are a few things to avoid during water damage:
PNW Restoration is a trusted water damage restoration company based in Oregon. We provide our services in the following regions:
The time required for the restoration process depends on the extent of the damage. Generally, water removal can take a few hours, while the cleanup and repair process may take about 3-7 days or longer for severe cases.
Regularly inspect for plumbing issues, ensure proper drainage, and install water alarms and automatic shut-off valves to detect leaks and avoid overflows.
Untreated water damage can lead to water contamination, mold growth, structural damage, weakened structure, wood rot, rust, and health risks from mold and bacteria.
In many cases, furniture and electronics can be saved if dried and restored quickly. However, items heavily soaked or damaged in category 3 water may need to be replaced.
If water damage is not addressed properly, it can result in mold growth within 24 to 48 hours.
Mold can start to grow in the affected area within 24 to 48 hours of exposure to water, especially in areas with poor ventilation and higher humidity.
Black mold can release harmful toxins that can lead to allergic reactions, respiratory issues, and other health conditions.
Look for visible mold growth on surfaces like floors, ceilings, walls, or carpets, especially in damp areas. Additionally, a musty smell can be an indication of mold presence.
If you suspect black mold growing in your house or office, avoid disturbing the area to prevent spores from spreading. Immediately contact professional water damage restoration services for inspection and safe mold removal.
