Stop It And Strip It
Emergency tarp and board-up where the property needs protecting, then water mitigation. Saturated drywall, flooring, cabinetry, and insulation come out, because rebuilding over wet material is how a small loss becomes a big one.
Flood & Water
Damage Repair
Roof leaks, burst pipes, dishwashers, and washing machines can do serious damage to homes and businesses. JMS is who you call in your time of stress. We take the burden off your shoulders and rebuild from demo to finish.
How Water Losses Start
Small Source. Big Damage.
Most water losses do not start with a flood. They start with a roof leak that ran inside a wall for weeks, a supply line that let go behind the dishwasher, a burst pipe over a holiday weekend, or a washing machine hose that finally gave out. By the time you see the water, it has usually been into the drywall, the flooring, the cabinets, and the insulation.
That is where we come in. JMS Building Corporation is a full insurance restoration construction company serving Central Florida, residential and commercial, with 24-hour emergency service. We walk the entire loss, draw, measure, scope, and photograph everything, and meet your adjuster on site so the claim starts from an honest, complete picture of the damage.
Two Halves Of Every Water Loss.
Build It Back
Full reconstruction with new materials, run by one project manager: framing, drywall, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and finishes through completion. We restore your home to its pre-loss condition and walk every detail with you before close-out.
Want proof? The Cragin kitchen and the Rutherford master bath in our project gallery were both full rebuilds after water losses.
What To Expect
Four To Six Weeks, Start To Finish.
Each project varies, but an average water loss typically takes four to six weeks from start to finish. While the price is being agreed with your adjuster, your project manager is already working with you on material selections and scheduling subcontractors, so the build starts immediately once the settlement is set. And since we buy materials at volume, upgrading your flooring or finishes during the rebuild often costs only the difference.
Water rarely travels alone. If the source was a storm, our storm and wind damage team handles the exterior in the same claim. If standing water reached framing or foundations, structural damage repair folds into the same plan. And if you have been thinking about updating the space anyway, ask about renovation and remodeling while the walls are already open.
What Homeowners Ask Us.
How long does a water damage rebuild take?
Each project varies, but from start to finish an average water loss typically takes four to six weeks. Once we come to an agreed-to price with your insurance adjuster we start work immediately, and before that point your project manager is already working with you on selections and scheduling subcontractors.
What will the repair cost me out of pocket?
Once we come to an agreed-to price with your insurance company, you are only responsible for the amount of your deductible. Your insurance will cover the rest.
I cannot live in my house right now. What do I do?
That is a question for your insurance company, since we do not know what your particular policy reads. Some policies do provide a housing allowance during these situations, and we can help you confirm coverage.
Can I upgrade my flooring instead of putting back what was there?
Yes. Because we buy at volume we can often get great prices, and you would only pay the difference. The amount is discussed and agreed to before any work is started.
Do you handle the water mitigation too?
Emergency tarp, board-up, and water mitigation come first, then full reconstruction. One project manager runs framing, drywall, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and finishes through completion.
