HELP FOR YOUR HOME OR BUSINESS
Water damage we see on Fidalgo Island
Wet crawlspaces.
Wind-driven rain, a broken line or a failed sump can leave standing water under the house. Left alone, it soaks insulation and subfloor.
Waterfront and view homes.
Homes near Dewey Beach, Similk Beach and along the shoreline take hard winter weather. Leaks around windows, decks and roofs show up as stains and soft drywall.
Second homes and rentals.
A leak in an empty house can run for days. We work with owners and property managers who are off the island.
Guemes Island and island access
We serve Guemes Island properties too. When you call, tell us your ferry timing and any access details, and we'll plan equipment and crew around it.

Call 360-770-0058 any time, day or night. Our team is based in Bow and serves Anacortes. We will ask about your address, active leaking and access, then confirm crew availability and an estimated arrival time. Travel, weather and existing emergency jobs affect timing; an arrival time is not guaranteed before we speak with you.
Do you work with insurance on water damage in Anacortes?
We provide photos, moisture readings, a scope of work and Xactimate estimates when applicable, and can share this documentation with your adjuster. Your insurer decides coverage and payment under your policy. We explain the proposed work and your authorization before starting.
What should I do while I wait for help?
Keep people and pets away from wet areas. If you can reach the water shutoff safely, close it to stop an active plumbing leak. Stay out of standing water near wiring, outlets or appliances; do not cross a wet area to reach an electrical panel. Avoid sagging ceilings and water that may contain sewage. Take photos from a safe place and call us with the details.
Can you get to Guemes Island?
Yes. Call with your address and we'll plan around the ferry schedule.
Can you remove water from a crawlspace in Anacortes?
Yes. We assess the water source, access and affected materials before planning removal and drying. Tell us if there is a sewage smell or a known drain backup, and do not enter a flooded crawlspace. A plumber or drainage specialist may also be needed to correct the source.
How do you know when the structure is dry?
We take moisture readings in affected building materials and compare them with suitable drying goals and unaffected areas where appropriate. The materials and readings determine when equipment can be removed. A surface that feels dry is not enough, and drying time varies by job.
