Water Damage Restoration in Sheridan Downtown Commercial Historic District
This core district along Main Street includes buildings constructed from the 1880s through the 1930s, many of which were rebuilt in brick following the catastrophic 1913 downtown fire. Older commercial to residential conversions and attached dwellings in this era likely retain cast iron or early galvanized plumbing and aging clay sewer laterals that are highly susceptible to root intrusion and collapse. Basement moisture intrusion and sewer backup are elevated risks given the age of the original utility infrastructure and the impervious surface coverage in the dense town core.
We have served Sheridan Downtown Commercial Historic District homeowners through the full range of water emergencies, from burst pipes and basement flooding to mold remediation and sewage cleanup. Whatever the source, our Sheridan crew responds 24/7 and works with your insurance carrier on approved claims.
How Should You Spend the First Hour After Water Damage in Sheridan Downtown Commercial Historic District?
Spend it on safety and on stopping the water, in that order. Our crew takes the photos for the photo report when they arrive, so put your energy into the valve and keeping everyone clear of the water.
Stay Away From Wet Outlets
If water has reached an outlet or anything plugged in, keep everyone out of that area. Switch off the breaker for it only if the panel is somewhere dry and you can reach it without walking through water.
Shut Off the Main Valve
The main shutoff is usually where the water line comes into the house. Turn a round handle clockwise until it stops, or turn a lever handle a quarter turn so it sits across the pipe.
Clear a Path
Move cars out of the driveway and clear a path to the wet area so our crew can bring hoses and equipment straight in. If the water's in the basement, make sure the stairs are clear and lit.
Write Down the Time
Note when you found the water and when you shut it off. That timeline helps our crew plan the drying, and it's handy to have when you talk with your insurance company.
What's Documented Before Anything Gets Torn Out in Sheridan Downtown Commercial Historic District?
Before any wet material leaves your home, our crew photographs it and notes the room it came from. Those photos sit next to the moisture readings in your photo report, so the condition of each room is on record before the cleanup starts.
The cause of the leak as our crew found it, photographed before anyone fixes or moves it.
Every surface the water touched, including flooring and the bottoms of cabinets, room by room.

Items that can't be saved, photographed before they're hauled off so there's a record of what they were.

We document damage with a photo report and walk you through what we found, so you can decide with your insurance company. Check your own policy before any rebuild starts. The Indiana Department of Insurance says not to make permanent repairs until your insurance company has inspected the damage.

Air movers and dehumidifiers run around the clock while our crew comes back to check moisture readings at marked spots. Each check shows which areas are drying and where the equipment should move next.
Placing the Equipment
Where the equipment goes depends on the readings, so the crew places it based on what the meter shows. Keep doors to the drying rooms closed if the crew asks, since that helps the dehumidifiers work.
Watching the Air Too
Along with walls and floors, the crew checks the humidity in the room to make sure the dehumidifiers are keeping up. Material readings and air readings get recorded separately in the report.
Getting Close
As the readings level off, the crew starts pulling equipment from the areas that are done. The rest of the equipment stays until those last spots read dry too.
Talking About Repairs
With drying done, the crew walks you through what was removed and what needs to be put back. Check your policy before repairs start, since your insurance company may want to see the damage first.
