Expert Water Damage Restoration for Andover Homeowners
Overflows from a toilet or tub send water further than the bathroom floor suggests. It slips under the vanity into the subfloor, then drops through the ceiling below, so a tub that ran over in your Andover home can show up as a stain on the kitchen ceiling. Andover Water Restoration takes readings on the bathroom floor and in that ceiling before deciding what has to come out.
Aaron Christy founded the company behind Andover Water Restoration in 2018. On every job in Andover, the crew takes readings before removing anything and shows you those readings as it goes. Drying stops when the wet materials match dry ones elsewhere in your house, and you keep the log that shows it, along with the full photo report.
A burst pipe has two parts, the repair and the drying. The plumber needs open access to the line, so the crew cuts the openings the repair requires and leaves the rest of the wall standing. Andover Water Restoration keeps extraction and drying going in your Andover home while the plumber works, then reads the repaired area again once the line is back in service.
Which part of your policy applies depends on where the water came from. Water from a failed pipe or appliance usually falls under the sudden and accidental part of a homeowners policy, while rising surface water usually needs a separate flood policy. Andover Water Restoration records the source in your Andover home, and your agent and adjuster make the call on coverage.
If you walked in to find water in your Andover home after time away, stay out of standing water near outlets. Photograph what you can see from the doorway and phone Andover Water Restoration, and the crew will work out where the water started and how far it traveled before setting up the equipment.

How Andover Water Restoration Handles Water Damage Restoration
We follow these steps in order on every Andover job.
Safety and Source Check
Before any work starts, the crew checks the wet area for electrical hazards and sagging ceilings and confirms the source of the water is closed. Anything unsafe gets marked off and photographed first.
Extraction and Containment
Pumps and extraction tools remove the standing water. Plastic containment goes up where the water is contaminated, soaked pad and insulation get bagged for disposal, and an EPA registered antimicrobial goes on the surfaces that stay.
Power and Cord Safety
Equipment is plugged into separate circuits so a single tripped breaker is less likely to stop the whole drying setup, and cords run along walls and away from wet areas. You hear which outlets to leave alone in your home.
Repairs After Drying
Once the readings show the house is dry, Andover Water Restoration handles the drywall, flooring, trim and paint. You approve the repair scope in writing first, and the work follows what the photo report recorded.
Checks at Each Stage
The work gets checked after extraction, during drying, before repairs start and at the end. Each check adds photos and readings to your file, so the next stage starts from a documented condition.
