Water Damage Restoration & Handyman | Akron, OH | Sonny Boyds

Common signs include unexplained increases in your water bill, damp spots on walls or ceilings, musty odors, and the sound of running water when no faucets are on. In winter, freeze-thaw cycles can cause pipes in exterior walls or unheated basements to crack. If you notice any of these signs, it's crucial to act quickly to prevent extensive water damage and mold growth.

First, stop the source of water if safe—turn off the water heater's supply valve or use buckets for a roof leak. Then, call Sonny Boyds right away. While waiting, move furniture and valuables to a dry area and mop up standing water if possible. Avoid using electrical appliances in wet areas. Our team will extract water, dry the space thoroughly, and assess the damage to prevent mold and structural issues.

Absolutely. We offer both damage restoration and general handyman services, so we can handle the entire process. After extracting water and drying your home, we can repair drywall, fix cabinetry, replace flooring, and address any other structural or cosmetic issues caused by the leak. This saves you the hassle of coordinating multiple contractors.
