Our Restoration and Rebuild Services

Emergency mitigation, insurance claim evaluation and full reconstruction. You deal with one company for the whole job instead of juggling several trades and vendors.

Water and Flood Damage Restoration

Burst pipes, failed sump pumps, sewer backups and the flooded basements that follow heavy Ontario rain. We extract, dry and monitor until readings are back to normal.

  • Water extraction and structural drying
  • Daily moisture monitoring and thermal imaging
  • Sewer backup and grey water cleanup

Water damage details

Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration

Smoke travels much further than the fire does. We board up, clean soot from every affected surface, treat the odour at its source and handle the reconstruction after.

  • Emergency board up and site securing
  • Soot removal and contents cleaning
  • Smoke odour treatment, not masking

Fire and smoke details

Wind and Storm Damage Repair

Ontario storms bring down trees, lift shingles and drive water into places it was never meant to go. We tarp, dry out and repair the structure properly.

  • Emergency tarping and roof leak control
  • Fallen tree and debris removal
  • Structural repairs and full rebuilds

Storm damage details

Mold and Asbestos Removal

Older Ontario homes often hide both. Once walls open up after water or fire damage, asbestos abatement may be needed, and we contain the area, remove what is there safely and fix the moisture problem behind it.

  • Containment and negative air control
  • Asbestos abatement and safe disposal
  • Post-remediation verification

Insurance Claims and Appraisals

The part most people dread. We write the scope in Xactimate, talk to your adjuster directly and keep the file moving so approvals do not sit for weeks.

  • Xactimate estimating and scope writing
  • CPPA certified property appraisals
  • Organized cost breakdowns and progress updates

How claims support works

Rebuilds, Renovations and Additions

We are an HCRA licensed builder, so the same team that dried your property also finishes it. We also take on custom homes, additions and investment property work.

  • Kitchens, bathrooms and full interiors
  • Optional upgrades during a claim
  • Custom builds, additions and rentals

Protect Your Claim with iGuide 3D Documentation

Before we pull anything out, we scan the property with iGuide 3D documentation. You, your adjuster and our project manager then work from the same record, with accurate room-by-room measurements. It is the second step in our restoration process.

  • ✓Insurance ready documentation
  • ✓Accurate room-by-room measurements
  • ✓Fewer disputes, faster approvals

Why Property Owners Choose Us

A property disaster is stressful enough without slow responses, poor communication and inconsistent workmanship from three different vendors.

Insurance expertise, not just construction

We guide you through the claim, the scope review and the approvals, which is where most of the delay and stress actually lives.

True 24/7 emergency response

Disasters do not keep business hours. Someone answers day or night, and a crew is dispatched immediately.

End to end project management

From mitigation through to finish carpentry, you deal with one accountable company rather than co-ordinating trades yourself.

Less red tape, faster turnaround

We understand how adjusters, engineers and city inspectors work, so permits and approvals move quicker.

Clear documentation and billing

Organized scopes, cost breakdowns and progress updates that line up with what your insurer expects.

Restore or upgrade, your choice

Put the property back as it was, or upgrade during the claim. We offer design build flexibility most emergency contractors do not.

Does home insurance cover basement flooding in Ontario?

Basement flooding coverage depends on the cause of the damage, your insurance policy, and any additional coverage you purchased. Property Worx documents the damage and prepares a restoration scope to support your claim. Your insurer determines whether the loss is covered, the applicable limits, and your deductible. Contact your insurer to confirm coverage for your specific situation.

How long does it take to dry a flooded basement?

Property Worx typically dries flooded basements in three to five days using commercial air movers and dehumidifiers. Drying may take longer depending on the amount of water, affected materials, and moisture trapped behind walls or flooring. We monitor moisture readings daily to determine when drying is complete. Repairs and reconstruction require additional time.

Can Property Worx bill my insurance company directly for restoration work?

Yes. Property Worx can coordinate with your insurance adjuster and bill your insurer directly for approved restoration work. We prepare estimates in Xactimate and provide supporting documentation. Depending on your policy and claim approval, you may be responsible for a deductible, costs above coverage limits, non-covered work, or optional upgrades.

Does Property Worx provide mold remediation and asbestos removal?

Yes. Property Worx provides mold remediation and asbestos removal in Burlington and surrounding service areas. The scope depends on the affected materials and site assessment.

Does Property Worx rebuild properties after water, fire, or storm damage?

Yes. Property Worx handles both emergency cleanup and reconstruction after water, fire, or storm damage. Our team coordinates demolition, remediation, structural repairs, drywall, flooring, painting, and kitchen or bathroom rebuilding as needed. We also offer renovations, additions, and custom builds outside insurance claims, allowing you to work with one company throughout the project.

What should I do while waiting for emergency restoration services?

Prioritize your safety while waiting for Property Worx. Stay away from standing water near electrical outlets or panels, and do not enter areas with structural damage. If you can safely reach the water shutoff, stop the leak at its source. Photograph damage only from a safe location. For immediate danger, leave the property and call emergency services.

How much does emergency property restoration cost?

Emergency property restoration costs depend on the type and extent of damage, affected materials, equipment, and work required. Cleanup and drying costs are separate from any reconstruction included in the project. Property Worx provides a written scope and cost breakdown so you and your insurance adjuster can review the proposed work and understand what is included.

What does emergency property restoration include?

Emergency property restoration includes securing the property, limiting further damage, cleaning affected areas, and repairing or rebuilding damaged structures. Property Worx handles water extraction, structural drying, fire and smoke cleanup, storm damage repairs, and related remediation. We also provide damage documentation and insurance claim support, coordinating the project from initial assessment through reconstruction.

How does Property Worx document property damage for an insurance claim?

Property Worx uses site assessments, photographs, moisture readings, and iGuide 3D documentation to record property damage and affected areas. We prepare restoration estimates in Xactimate and share supporting information with your insurance adjuster. This documentation helps explain the proposed scope of work; coverage and payment approval remain subject to your insurer’s review.
