Immediate action is crucial. Water can cause significant damage within minutes and will continue to spread often leading to structural damage as it ‘wicks’ up walls and into skirting boards. Left unattended for longer periods can lead to mould growth and carpet de-lamination. Call the Squeaky Clean Team for emergency water damage restoration.
Most home insurance policies cover sudden and accidental water damage. In commercial environments the landlord will likely be responsible for structural repairs, and the tenants for content repairs including carpet. We work alongside all major insurance companies and can help navigate the claim process, providing all necessary documentation. We are also very good at managing the different parties – for example the damage may affect and involve tenants, property managers, property owners, body corporates and insurance companies.
The timeline depends on the extent of the water damage. Minor incidents may be resolved in 1-2 days, while more severe cases may take 5-7 days. Our team works efficiently to minimise disruption to your life or business.
In many cases, yes. With prompt action, our specialised equipment and techniques can often salvage wet carpets. However, this depends on the water source, contamination level, and how long the carpet has been wet.
We use professional-grade dehumidifiers and air movers to thoroughly dry affected areas, followed by antimicrobial treatments to prevent mould growth. Our moisture testing ensures no hidden damp areas remain.
Yes, we work with all major Australian insurance companies and understand their requirements and processes. We provide a valuable service by responding quickly to mitigate water damage, which helps prevent costly secondary damage that can occur when restoration is delayed.
We streamline the claims process by providing comprehensive documentation including detailed damage assessments, photographs, and all necessary paperwork required by your insurer. Our experience working directly with insurance companies means we know exactly what information they need, making your claim process smoother and more efficient.

If safe to do so, turn off the water source and if affected the electricity. Remove valuable items from wet areas. Wooden and metal furniture legs resting on wet surface can cause damage – place in plastic bags. Do not use household vacuums on wet areas and avoid entering rooms with electrical hazards.
