Services
Water Damage Restoration
Our rapid response team addresses water damage from burst pipes, storms, and flooding using industrial pumps and thermal imaging. We extract water, dry structures completely with low-grain dehumidifiers, and prevent mold growth through advanced drying techniques. The process includes structural assessment, content cleaning, and complete restoration to original condition while documenting progress for insurance purposes.
Mold Removal
Certified technicians perform comprehensive mold inspections using moisture meters and infrared cameras. We contain affected areas with negative air pressure, remove mold with HEPA vacuums, and apply EPA-approved antimicrobials. Services include attic and crawlspace mold removal, black mold treatment, and moisture control solutions to prevent recurrence while ensuring safe indoor air quality.
Fire Damage Restoration
We provide complete fire restoration from smoke odor removal to structural repairs. Our process includes soot removal with specialized equipment, content cleaning of damaged belongings, odor neutralization using ozone generators, and rebuilding damaged areas. We coordinate with insurance companies and handle water damage from firefighting efforts as part of comprehensive restoration.
Emergency Restoration
Available 24/7 for urgent situations, our emergency services address water intrusion, mold growth, and fire damage. We stabilize properties through temporary repairs, implement immediate drying solutions, and begin restoration within 60 minutes of contact. This includes boarding up damaged structures and implementing containment measures to prevent further damage during non-business hours.
Odor Removal
Our multi-method odor elimination system combines HEPA filtration, carbon absorption, thermal fogging, and hydroxyl treatments. We target smoke, pet, and mold-related odors at their source while improving overall indoor air quality. The process includes identifying odor sources, implementing appropriate treatment methods, and verifying complete elimination through sensory testing.

Questions
What immediate actions should I take after discovering water damage?
Turn off electricity in affected areas, stop water source if possible, document damage with photos, and contact iDry Columbus immediately for professional extraction and drying services.
Does homeowners insurance typically cover mold remediation?
Coverage depends on cause - sudden events like burst pipes usually qualify, but long-term moisture issues may not. Our team assists with documentation and insurance claims processing to maximize coverage.
Can I handle mold removal myself?
DIY methods work for small non-toxic areas under 10 sq ft. Professional remediation is required for black mold, hidden growth, or extensive contamination to ensure complete removal and prevent recurrence.
How quickly can you respond to emergency restoration requests?
Our team arrives within 60 minutes of contact for all emergency calls, providing immediate mitigation and beginning restoration work on-site within 24 hours of initial assessment.
What distinguishes your fire damage restoration process?
We combine structural drying with advanced odor elimination techniques while maintaining strict containment protocols. Our technicians handle both immediate cleanup and long-term rebuilding needs under one service agreement.
