What We Do
Restoration Services for Newton Homes and Businesses
When water, fire, or mold damages a Newton home or business, our local crews start the cleanup fast. We handle the emergency work and the repairs that follow.
Water Damage Restoration
Our Newton crews remove standing water from leaks, burst pipes, and flooded basements, then dry the structure, checking moisture levels daily until the readings come back dry.
Learn more →Fire & Smoke Restoration
After a fire, we board up the property, clean soot and smoke residue, remove odor, clean the belongings that can be saved, and rebuild what was lost.
Learn more →Mold Remediation
We contain the affected area, filter the air with HEPA equipment, remove the mold to IICRC standards, and fix the moisture source behind it.
Learn more →Reconstruction
Once the cleanup is done, our reconstruction team replaces drywall, flooring, cabinets, and paint, so you don’t need to hire a second contractor.

Questions
Newton Water, Fire, and Mold Restoration FAQs
How fast can you get to my Newton home?
Our Newton crews are based right in town, so help is never far away. We answer 24/7 and dispatch a crew within the hour.
My home is in one of Newton’s historic districts. Do repairs after a fire or flood need approval?
Exterior repairs might. Newton has four local historic districts: Auburndale, Chestnut Hill, Newton Upper Falls, and Newtonville. Exterior changes visible from the street need a Certificate of Appropriateness from the district’s commission before the city issues a building permit. Repairs that exactly match the existing materials qualify for a simpler Certificate of Non-Applicability. Interior work isn’t reviewed.
Is my Newton home in a flood zone?
Parts of Newton along the Charles River, including Newton Lower Falls, Auburndale, and Newton Upper Falls, are in FEMA flood hazard areas, along with land near Cheesecake Brook and South Meadow Brook. Standard homeowners policies don’t cover flooding from rising water, so check whether you carry separate flood insurance. Either way, we extract the water, dry the structure, and document the damage for whichever policy applies.
Do I need a permit from the City of Newton to rebuild after damage?
For most structural, electrical, and plumbing repairs, yes. Newton’s Inspectional Services Department issues building permits. In a local historic district, the city won’t issue one until the historic commission approves the exterior work. Ask about permits during your estimate so the rebuild schedule accounts for them.
Do you restore commercial properties in Newton?
Yes. Our Newton office handles homes, businesses, and government buildings across Newton and the surrounding towns, from single-family houses to offices and storefronts.
Will you work with my insurance company?
Yes. We document the damage, prepare the estimate, and communicate directly with your adjuster. You get updates on where your claim stands until it closes.
