24/7 Water Damage Cleanup & Restoration in Northeast Florida

Water Damage Restoration For Your Home or Business

Water damage can have devastating impacts on your home or business. Whether due to storm damage, flooding, a plumbing problem, or a construction issue, water damage if not properly repaired can lead to cascading issues and escalating costs. At DriMaxx, we know. We’ve been helping residential and commercial clients with water removal, cleanup & restoration services in Jacksonville for over two decades. Our services include 24/7 emergency water removal, mold remediation and odor removal, and complete rebuild and recovery services.

Water damage can be deceptive. Water penetrates into structural cavities creating trapped pockets of saturation. The detection of water in such areas can often only be discovered with sophisticated moisture detection meters. Undetected moisture will continue to cause damage over time. At minimum this means odor, but greater damage follows when materials delaminate, shrink, split and further deteriorate or mold occurs, and more costly repairs are required.

More than just removing excess water, DriMaxx’s certified restorers have the knowledge and equipment to dry a residential or commercial property (including substructure materials) completely back to pre-loss conditions. Through timely response and the careful monitoring of water damage, mold and other health issues can be prevented. Our restoration professionals have the training and experience not only to assist in emergencies but to identify long-standing moisture issues, evaluate visible or suspected mold growth, contain the damage, remove the contamination, dry the materials, and/or when required, fully rebuild any part of a water damaged home or commercial business.

Rick was on site doing his thing within an hour. He also went over all options with the customer. It was also very efficient with time spent on site. If I ever have this issue on another job site I will definitely be calling them back.

These guys are amazing. My insurance company tried to low ball me with my water damage and these guys took charge. All the mold is out and clean. They even referred a restoration place afterwards (something the insurance company should had done). I would recommend and definitely use these guys again. Thank you for everything.

I stumbled upon DriMaxx through having to use my home warranty policy that was put into place when I bought my home. The Orange Park location sent over Robert and Thomas. They were extremely professional, courteous, and very quick to respond to my questions and requests. I was also very impressed with how clean they were throughout the whole demo process. They explained the rest of the process to me very eloquently, so I understood exactly what steps were being taken. I highly recommend their team to anyone that need the services.

Update***** I was contacted by Drimaxx who negotiated a settlement for my damages. They appear to be taking the time to restore their reputation which I find commendable. The rep stated they have replaced some staff members. I am upgrading my review from one star to four based on their efforts to please a customer. I contacted Drimaxx after mold issues arose in the kitchen. They were initially responsive although it took them two weeks to remediate the mold verses the original one week estimate. The crew caused damage to our kitchen in that they scratched the pantry door as well as our dining wood floor when dragging the refrigerator to the dining area. They plugged the refrigerator into a non working outlet causing items in the refrigerator to become lukewarm and needed disposed of. My son noticed this in time and none of the freezer items were lost. I did not ask for retribution regarding the food because it was an honest mistake. They uneccessarily took our new kitchen faucet along with the sink. Our insurance will not pay to replace either. Now that Drimaxx has been paid by my insurance company, I have been stonewalled by Matt, the owner, and Logan, his employee. I will be filing a small claim suit as well as a complaint with the BBB. I wish I would have gone with Servpro, but wanted to give a local company my business. What a mistake.

We recently had some plumbing-related water damage in one of our bathrooms and we called Drimaxx to take a look. They showed up in 30 minutes, assessed the situation and tested for mold. 24 hours later, their crew was here and preparing the job site. Our house is now mold-free and we couldn't be happier with the service Drimaxx provided. The crew was extremely courteous, professional and flexible with us (and our two young children). Unlike some other companies we've hired in the past, they were GREAT about communicating with us and always set clear expectations with us regarding start times and other impactful information. Would 100% recommend Drimaxx to anyone.

Commercial Water Damage Cleanup Professionals

DriMaxx provides complete water damage cleanup and restoration services for commercial businesses in Jacksonville. Standing water due to flood, plumbing, fire or disrepair can be costly for businesses in more ways than one. Not only does it physically degrade floors, walls and materials like carpet, tile, hardwood, drywall, caulking, and insulation, but it can also cause biological problems.

Insects such as mosquitos and cockroaches are attracted to standing water and unattended moisture can quickly result in the growth of mold and mildew. This is not only visually displeasing to clients and customers but can be a health concern for employees, for which business owners are responsible. Air quality can be negatively impacted, and if not resolved, can be harmful – even life threatening – for all.

If your building has experienced extensive water damage, we provide complete commercial rebuild and recovery services. As part of these services, we can evaluate your water damage, determine what is safely salvageable, and rebuild and repair some heavily damaged materials to help you avoid the costs of purchasing all new materials while increasing operational uptime! We can also help you build new, from the ground-up.

Water Damage Tips

Signs of Water Damage

Although visible water in a building is the most obvious sign of flood damage, there are many other indicators of water damage. Cracked foundations, rusted pipes, electrical shorts, mosquitoes, and peeling wood surfaces are potential signs of water damage. Mold or algae formation, a substantial increase in humidity, dampness, or stains in walls or ceilings are more definite signs that your property is suffering the effects of water damage.

If you suspect that your property might be experiencing water damage, time is of the essence as water and moisture that is left too long will cause mold to form. This can lead to serious health issues, as well as additional costs involved with cleaning up and killing the mold spores. Depending upon the source of the water, there may be other risks to health and property.

Sources of Water Damage and Its Potential Risks

A busted pipe or faucet that was not turned off during a trip away from home will lead to pools of relatively clean water. When this is the case, it is simply a matter of cleaning the water up in a thorough and timely manner before mold begins to set in. However, if the source of the water is from the outside, such as a storm that brings in water from nearby rivers or similar reservoirs, further contamination could be a problem. The risk of illness from being exposed to pathogens from bacteria from the ground, animal wastes, and rodents from rainwater renders the cleanup job even more serious. Furthermore, there are man-made chemicals that could seep into your property, such as fertilizers, oils, and pesticides, which could both cause damage and short- and long-term health problems.

Cautions to Take After Experiencing Water Damage

Regardless of the source of water damage and flood, DriMaxx wants to remind you to take caution when entering a property that has been affected. A call to a professional may be the first step to take before even returning to the affected commercial or residential building, depending on how extensive the damage is. After a storm, watch for downed power lines around the structure and shut-off power to the building you are ready to inspect. If there is a possibility of any person or animal inside the structure, try to either get them out yourself or call emergency personnel for assistance. Yours’ and everyone’s safety is the most important issue.
