About America Water Damage

Connecting You with Water Damage Restoration Contractors in Block Island, RI

Property owners in Rhode Island use America Water Damage to reach local water damage restoration contractors without having to search on their own. We are the connection, not the contractor. The work itself, from extraction to drying to repairs, is scoped and carried out by an independent business. NOAA's state climate summary records that landfalling hurricanes produced hurricane-force winds in Rhode Island six times between 1900 and 2019. In March 2010, heavy rainfall from a nor'easter caused the worst flooding in the state's history and led to $43 million in national flood insurance claims. Superstorm Sandy in 2012 brought a storm surge 9.4 feet above normal high tide in Providence. Sea level at Newport has risen more than 9 inches since 1930, faster than the global average. Those conditions shape the requests we receive from Rhode Island. Whether the property is in Block Island, RI or elsewhere in the state, the first step is the same: tell us what happened, and we will connect you with a local contractor who can assess the damage in person.

Why choose us for water damage restoration

Why Use Our Network in Block Island, RI

When a request comes in from Rhode Island, we match it by location and by the type of loss, then connect the owner with an independent restoration contractor who serves that area. The contractor, not America Water Damage, inspects the property and proposes the work. Rhode Island requires anyone in the business of residential construction, alterations or remodeling to register with the Contractors' Registration and Licensing Board, which requires liability insurance. Unregistered contractors cannot obtain a building permit in any of the state's cities or towns. We are not aware of a Rhode Island license specific to water damage restoration, so ask for the registration number and check it with the board. For a loss in Block Island, RI, confirm those details yourself before signing, along with current liability insurance. How an insurance claim is billed is settled between you and the contractor. Pricing is theirs too. We set no prices and take no part in the quote.

Frequently asked questions about water damage restoration

Questions Block Island, RI homeowners and businesses ask most about water damage restoration — and clear, honest answers.

Contact Us
Is flood damage covered differently from other water damage?
Usually, yes. Insurers generally draw a line between water that comes from inside the building, such as a supply line or an appliance, and rising water that comes from outside, such as a river, storm surge or surface runoff. The second kind is what flood insurance is designed for, including policies written through the National Flood Insurance Program. Which category a loss falls into is a decision for your insurer, not for us or for a contractor. If you are unsure which policy applies, report the loss under both and let the insurers respond.
Should I call my insurer or a restoration contractor first?
In most cases you can do both within the same hour, and the order matters less than acting early. Stopping the water and limiting the damage comes first, because most policies expect the owner to take reasonable steps to prevent further loss. Report the claim to your insurer as soon as you can and note the claim number. A contractor can then inspect the property and document the damage. Keep photographs, videos and receipts from the start, since that record supports whatever your insurer decides.
What should I do while waiting for a contractor to arrive?
If it is safe to do so, stop the water at its source by closing the main shutoff valve. Stay out of standing water that may be in contact with electrical outlets or appliances, and switch off power to affected areas only if you can reach the panel safely. Photograph and video everything before you move it, because that record is what a claim is built on. Lift furniture and soft furnishings off wet carpet where you can, and move valuables and documents to a dry room.
How do I know when the property is actually dry?
Ask to see the numbers. A contractor drying a structure should keep a drying log with regular moisture readings for the affected materials, alongside readings from an unaffected part of the building for comparison. Drying is complete when the wet materials come back into line with that dry reference, not when the floor feels dry to the touch. If a contractor proposes removing equipment, it is reasonable to ask what the latest readings were and how they compare with the target. Keep a copy of the log for your records and for your insurer.
What can be saved and what has to be removed?
It depends mainly on the material and on how contaminated the water was. Hard, non-porous surfaces can usually be cleaned and dried. Porous materials such as carpet pad, insulation and drywall are harder to save, and after contact with sewage or floodwater they generally have to be removed. Solid wood and structural framing can often be dried in place if the work starts early. A contractor should tell you what they plan to remove and why before they do it, and you can ask for that in writing.
