AfterFast, Reliable Water Damage Restoration Across Orlando
Water damage restoration in Orlando typically costs $2,800-$7,500 for a standard Category 2 water loss involving extraction, structural drying, and drywall repair. Most jobs in Orlando can be started the same day you call, with a written price delivered before anyone touches a wall. DryMark Restoration has crews stationed across Orlando neighborhoods, from College Park to Lake Nona, and we document every visit with photos, moisture readings, and a written scope so your insurance claim has a paper trail an adjuster can actually use. If water is moving through your Orlando home right now, call (629) 213-4606 and a live person answers.
Why DryMark Restoration Is Orlando’s Preferred Water Damage Restoration Company
DryMark Restoration was founded in 2011 by a former claims adjuster who spent years watching Orlando homeowners lose money because their restoration contractor never wrote anything down. That origin shapes how we work here. Every Orlando job gets a written price before work begins, a room-by-room moisture log during drying, and a signed 365-Day Done Right Promise under The Haven Standard. No verbal assurances. No scope creep after the crew is inside.
Our Orlando customers consistently mention three things in reviews: the written estimate matched the final invoice, the daily drying logs made their insurance adjuster’s job easy, and the technicians showed up in uniform with their names and license numbers on the paperwork. We carry professional-grade drying systems from Dri-Eaz, Phoenix, and Injectidry, and we document to IICRC and RIA standards because documentation is the difference between a paid claim and a denied one.
We’re not a franchise. We’re independently owned and operated, led by Alicia Brennan, and we answer our own phones 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. When you call about water in your Orlando home, you talk to someone who can dispatch a crew, not a voicemail tree.
Our Water Damage Restoration Services in Orlando
Emergency Water Extraction
Standing water in an Orlando home moves fast, especially in concrete block construction where stucco cracks channel rainwater into wall cavities. Our crews arrive with truck-mounted extraction units and portable extractors sized for slab-on-grade homes and crawl spaces alike. We extract first, then map moisture with thermal imaging and pin meters, because water you can’t see in Orlando’s CBS walls is water that becomes mold within 48 hours in Florida humidity. Emergency water extraction in Orlando typically runs $1,200-$3,400 depending on affected square footage and water classification.
Structural Drying & Dehumidification
Orlando’s summer humidity means air movers alone won’t dry a wall cavity. We use Dri-Eaz and Phoenix low-grain refrigerant dehumidifiers paired with Injectidry injection systems when needed, and we log psychrometric data, including vapor pressure differential, daily until materials return to pre-loss moisture content. Structural drying in an Orlando home typically costs $1,800-$4,200 and takes 3-5 days, with daily moisture readings delivered to you and your adjuster in writing.
Flood Cleanup
Flood events in Orlando hit differently than burst pipes. The region’s low topographic relief and shallow water table mean even a moderate afternoon thunderstorm can back water up through floor drains in low-lying subdivisions across Winter Park and Altamonte Springs. Floodwater is Category 3 by default, carrying sewage, lawn chemicals, and bacteria. Flood cleanup in Orlando typically runs $4,000-$9,000 for extraction, contaminant removal, antimicrobial application, and structural drying, with a written scope delivered before we start.
Burst Pipe Restoration
A burst supply line in an Orlando home is usually Category 1 or 2 water, which is cleaner and cheaper to remediate than floodwater, but only if you act fast. In older wood-frame bungalows in College Park and Colonialtown, original plumbing without vapor barriers means a burst pipe can saturate wall cavities and subfloors faster than a CBS block home. Burst pipe restoration in Orlando generally costs $2,200-$5,800, including extraction, drying, baseboard removal, and drywall repair where needed. Our crews classify the water category on site, in writing, before mitigation begins.

BeforeAfterTrusted Brands We Service in Orlando
Orlando homeowners own dehumidifiers, air conditioners, and plumbing systems across every major brand, and our drying equipment is matched to the home’s construction, not the other way around. We run B-Air air movers and Injectidry injection drying systems sized for concrete block cavities and wood-framed walls alike, and our technicians are trained to IICRC and RIA standards so the equipment logs hold up when an insurer reviews them. If you’re in Orlando and looking at water damage from a burst pipe, roof leak, or storm, call (629) 213-4606 and we can tell you over the phone what the first 24 hours should look like.
Common Water Damage Restoration Problems We See in Orlando Homes
- Lightning Alley roof leaks that go unnoticed for months. Orlando sits in the sea-breeze convergence zone between the Gulf and Atlantic, and near-daily afternoon thunderstorms from June through September mean water enters through roof penetrations and stucco cracks repeatedly. By the time a homeowner sees a ceiling stain, the water has usually been moving through wall cavities for weeks. Our moisture mapping finds what the eye can’t.
- Concrete block walls that hide moisture until mold appears. CBS construction resists fire well but wicks water into wall cavities when stucco cracks go unaddressed. In Orlando’s humidity, that hidden moisture colonizes mold behind baseboards faster than in drier climates. If your baseboards are swelling or your paint is bubbling in an Orlando concrete block home, the water is already inside the wall.
- Short-term rental units with zero tolerance for delay. In the vacation rental corridor west of SR-535 and along US-192, property managers call with a hard deadline: the next guest checks in, dry or not. We run 48-hour dry-outs for these properties, with moisture readings and mold clearance testing so the unit is actually guest-ready, not just visually dry. Missing that window costs the manager revenue and costs us the account.
- Older wood-frame bungalows in College Park and Colonialtown. These 1940s and 1950s homes have original plumbing, minimal vapor barriers, and plaster walls that hold water differently than drywall. A plumbing leak in one of these Orlando bungalows is more destructive per square foot than the same leak in a newer CBS home, and the repair scope almost always includes plaster remediation.

FAQs - Water Damage Restoration in Orlando
We can complete a full dry-out on a short-term rental unit in the Disney World corridor within 48 hours in most cases. We run Dri-Eaz low-grain dehumidifiers and B-Air air movers at aggressive settings, take moisture readings every 12 hours, and provide mold clearance documentation before the unit is turned over. Property managers along US-192 and SR-535 call us specifically because we deliver a documented dry unit, not a visual pass, and we understand that every unoccupied night is lost revenue. Call (629) 213-4606 and we can tell you over the phone whether your unit can meet the next check-in window.
No, sinkhole-related water intrusion in Orlando requires different handling because Florida’s statutory framework makes every sinkhole claim a potential coverage dispute. We classify the water separately, document the intrusion pattern with photos and moisture mapping before any drying begins, and write the scope so it stands up to an adjuster’s review. Orlando sits on karst limestone geology, and a water loss tied to a sinkhole is a structural matter first and a drying matter second. You need a restoration company that documents like a claim is already filed. That’s how we work.
Water from an unnoticed roof leak in Orlando will migrate through wall cavities, saturate insulation, and colonize mold behind baseboards within weeks, not months. The daily afternoon thunderstorms from June through September keep re-wetting the same path, so the damage compounds even if the leak looks small from the outside. By the time you see a ceiling stain, the wall cavity is already wet. We’ve opened Orlando CBS walls where stucco cracks had been channeling storm water for months, and the mold was extensive but fully contained. Call (629) 213-4606 before the next storm cycle makes it worse.
Yes, we work extensively in the older wood-frame bungalows of College Park and Colonialtown. Those homes were built between the 1940s and 1960s with original plumbing and minimal vapor barriers, so a leak is more destructive per square foot than in newer CBS construction, and plaster walls require different drying and repair techniques than drywall. Our crews are trained to map moisture in plaster and lath, not just drywall, and we write scopes that account for plaster remediation. If you have water in an older Orlando bungalow, we’ll document the damage so your insurance claim reflects the true scope.
Category 2 water, often called “gray water,” is water that contains significant contamination from things like soap residue, food particles, or urine. In an Orlando home, a burst pipe that releases clean water but then soaks through a carpet, insulation, or dirty drywall becomes Category 2 because it’s picking up contaminants as it moves. That classification matters for your claim: the remediation scope is larger, the drywall removal is more aggressive, and your insurer will want documentation showing the classification was made correctly. We classify on site, in writing, and our IICRC standard documentation supports exactly what the adjuster needs to see. Call (629) 213-4606 for a written assessment.
