How these tools work
Every tool runs in your browser. Nothing you type is saved, and nothing leaves your device unless you choose to send the request form. The results are written as ranges on purpose. A real scope depends on moisture readings, how far soot traveled and what is hidden behind finishes, and only a visit can measure those.
Where the numbers come from
- Prices: only the ranges published on our pricing page. The tools never compute a custom dollar figure.
- Water categories and drying classes: concepts from the ANSI/IICRC S500 water damage standard, which local providers typically follow.
- Mold sizes and timing: U.S. EPA mold guidance and CDC flood cleanup guidance.
- Soot levels: FEMA's homeowner guide to residential smoke damage.
- Claims: FEMA and NFIP claim guidance, plus the claim steps in your own policy.
When to skip the tools and call
If water is still coming in, a ceiling is sagging, you smell gas or burning, or sewage is involved, do not stop to run a calculator. Get people out of the area and call (484) 293-9520, 24/7. A local restoration provider may contact you to arrange a visit.
