Damage Restoration Boston | Mad Construction & Design

In many Boston neighborhoods like Beacon Hill or the South End, older plumbing can develop slow leaks inside walls. Common signs include unexplained increases in your water bill, the sound of running water when no fixtures are on, soft or spongy spots on drywall or flooring, and a musty odor. If you notice any of these, it's important to have a professional inspect the area immediately to prevent structural rot and mold.

You should call for emergency water extraction within 24 hours—ideally immediately. Boston weather can bring sudden, heavy downpours that lead to basement flooding or roof leaks. Standing water not only damages flooring and personal belongings but also creates the perfect environment for mold to start growing within 48 hours. Our team can arrive within the hour to pump out water and begin drying, protecting your home in neighborhoods like Dorchester or Jamaica Plain.

Absolutely. After any water damage—whether from a burst pipe in a Back Bay condo or a leaky roof in a Cambridge apartment—mold can be a serious health concern. Our restoration services include thorough mold remediation: we find and fix the moisture source, remove affected materials, and use HEPA filtration to clean the air. We work with Boston condominium associations and single-family homeowners alike to ensure the mold is properly removed and won't return.
