About Jamaica Plain Water Damage Restoration

Why water behaves differently here

Jamaica Plain became part of Boston in 1874 and grew as one of the first streetcar suburbs in America. Triple-deckers first showed up in the 1870s and spread fast in the 1890s, and most streets were filled in by the early 1900s. That leaves a housing stock of stacked units, plaster walls, deep attics and older basements.

Each of those changes the drying plan. A supply leak on the third floor shows up in two ceilings below. Plaster and lath hold water longer than drywall. A basement floor drain is the first opening a sewer backup finds, and a hard freeze splits pipes that run through porches and outside walls. The walkthrough checks the units below, the attic and the basement, not just the room where the water showed up.

What gets handled

Water and sewage only: water extraction, frozen pipes, basement flooding, sewage backups, ice dam leaks, burst pipes, roof and ceiling leaks, sump pump failures, water heater and appliance leaks, structural drying and commercial losses.
