Water Damage Restoration
Water damage spreads fast. Within minutes, water can soak into drywall, flooring, insulation, and framing. That’s why our emergency water damage restoration team begins immediate water removal and expert drying after floods, pipe breaks, slab leaks, and appliance failures.
We use advanced extraction equipment, commercial-grade dehumidifiers, and moisture detection tools to locate hidden water behind walls and under flooring.
If your home has experienced flooding, our full-service water damage mitigation services help stop damage at the source and begin the restoration process right away. We also handle odor removal so your home doesn’t smell musty long after the water is gone
The bottom line? The longer water sits, the worse it gets. Calling quickly makes all the difference.
Mold Remediation
Mold Remediation
After water damage, mold can begin growing quickly, sometimes within 24 to 48 hours. Mold infestations are a danger to your health and your property’s structural integrity.
Mold can cause:
- Respiratory irritation
- Allergy symptoms
- Musty odors
- Damage to drywall, wood, and insulation
At Bill Howe, our team uses the latest testing equipment and professional inspections to find mold at its source. With years of experience serving San Diego homeowners, our certified specialists handle mold containment, removal, and prevention.
Our mold remediation services may also include professional plumbing repairs, moisture control, and ventilation improvement.
Fire Damage Restoration
After any fire, soot and smoke particles can settle into walls, insulation, and HVAC systems. If not cleaned properly, they can continue causing damage long after the flames are out.
At Bill Howe, our restoration specialists are certified, insured, and experienced in smoke and fire damage. Everything is handled by our in-house team from start to finish.
We take care of:
- Smoke and soot removal
- Odor elimination
Structural cleaning and repairs - Debris cleanup
- Air quality improvement
Smoke residue is acidic and can damage surfaces over time if not treated quickly. That’s why fast response matters. We work carefully to restore your home safely and thoroughly, while keeping you informed at every step. Our goal is to return your home to pre-loss condition as quickly as possible.
If your home has been impacted by fire, call our professionals for expert fire damage restoration services.
Home & Contents Restoration
When your home is damaged, your furniture, electronics, keepsakes, and personal items matter just as much. With over 40 years of serving San Diego homeowners, we understand that restoration is more than repairs—it’s about protecting what makes your house feel like home.
If needed, we securely store your belongings while we remediate the problem. This keeps your items safe and prevents further damage during the restoration process.
For heirlooms, fine art, electronics, or textiles, we work with trusted expert partners to restore them to pre-loss condition whenever possible.
We can also repair and replace damaged areas of your home, including:
- Flooring
- Drywall
- Paint and texturing
- Crawlspace cleanup
- Carpet drying
- Structural framing repairs
If your belongings or home interiors have been affected, our professional contents restoration services team is ready to help.

When disaster strikes, Bill Howe works directly with your insurance provider to help streamline the claims process. We’ve worked with insurance companies for decades and understand how the system works.
Our team helps you:
- Document the damage clearly and thoroughly
