Understanding the cost
What can affect the price
We explain in plain language the step-by-step cleanup plan and price before you approve the job. These examples show what may change the estimate.
| Common situation | What the estimate may include | Typical range |
|---|---|---|
| Affected area up to about 1,500 square feet in a commercial suite, clean water, three to five drying days | National estimate. The per foot band applies to the metered water-damaged area, which is generally smaller than the whole suite. | $3,000 to $12,000 |
| One commercial floor or roughly 5,000 to 10,000 square feet | To keep the next step clear, national estimate. Before cleanup moves forward, larger footprint, many more equipment days and more project coordination. | $12,000 to $45,000 |
| Commercial water removal billed by affected area, clean water | To keep the next step clear, national estimate. In simple terms, higher than residential rates because of access, sealed work area and documentation demands. | $4 to $9 per square foot |

What can happen when the area stays wet

Common questions
Questions about commercial water removal
How is commercial water removal different from residential work?
In simple terms, the drying science is the same. For your property, everything around it changes. For your property, commercial jobs add vendor paperwork, badging, after hours access windows, multiple stakeholders and phased reopening.
Can the business keep operating while you work?
To keep the next step clear, very regularly yes. In simple terms, we contain the work zone with barriers and controlled airflow, protect walkways, and run disruptive stages outside business hours.
Can you send a certificate of insurance before your crew arrives?
Before cleanup moves forward, yes. In simple terms, we send a current certificate of insurance with the vendor forms your office needs, including additional insured and waiver of subrogation wording where required.
Do you work overnight or on weekends?
Before cleanup moves forward, yes, and on commercial jobs it is generally the better plan. In simple terms, extraction, demolition and equipment changes run in after hours windows.
How much does commercial water removal cost?
Before cleanup moves forward, as national estimates, an water-damaged area up to about 1,500 square feet commonly runs $3,000 to $12,000. In simple terms, a full floor of 5,000 to 10,000 square feet regularly runs $12,000 to $45,000.
How long until we can reopen?
To keep the next step clear, extraction is generally finished in hours. Before cleanup moves forward, drying generally takes 3 to 5 days, longer for dense assemblies.
