The Steps of Our Water Damage Restoration in Melbourne

Every water event is different, but our professional water damage restoration in Melbourne sets out a clear, proven process. Our approach is designed to act quickly, control moisture properly and protect your property. It’s scientific, and it’s trusted to minimise long-term structural and health issues.

1Initial Phone Call

We start off by listening carefully to what’s happened and assessing the urgency of the situation. Our team asks the right questions to understand the source of the water and the affected areas, as well as any immediate risks to bear in mind. Next, a technician is dispatched without delay.

2On-Site Inspection & Damage Assessment

When we’re there at your property our technician carries out a detailed inspection of the affected areas. We identify the extent of the water damage, flag any hidden moisture, assess safety concerns and come to a conclusion on which materials can be successfully restored.

3Safety Preparation

Before restoration starts, we have to make the area safe. This includes managing electrical risks, taking away slip hazards and protecting furniture, flooring, and fixtures. We always want no further damage to occur during the restoration process.

4Water Extraction

Standing water is removed using high-powered extraction equipment. Fast and thorough water removal is important because it significantly reduces drying time and limits the spread of moisture into other areas of the property.

5Drying & Moisture Control

We set up our professional-grade drying equipment, including dehumidifiers and air movers, to draw moisture from structural materials. Drying systems are carefully set up based on the building type, materials involved and severity of the damage.

6Cleaning, Sanitising & Deodorising

Affected areas are cleaned and sanitised to remove contaminants, bacteria, and odours left behind by the water intrusion. This step plays a key role in preventing mould growth and maintaining a healthy indoor environment.

7Ongoing Monitoring & Adjustments

Moisture levels are monitored regularly using industry-standard testing equipment. We adjust the drying setup as needed to ensure all materials reach safe, acceptable moisture levels.

8Final Inspection & Compliance Documentation

Once drying is complete, we perform a final inspection to confirm restoration goals have been met. We then provide documentation and compliance reports for peace of mind and insurance purposes.

Whatever the flood. Big or small. We're onto it.

Water Damage Restoration Melbourne FAQs

What should I do first if I discover water damage in my Melbourne property?

The first step is to make sure everyone remains safe. Stop the source of the water by turning off the mains or isolating the affected appliance, but only if it’s safe to do so. Avoid contact with standing water, especially if electricity may be involved. Once the situation is stable, contact DryX as soon as possible. Early professional intervention significantly reduces damage, drying time, and the risk of mould developing.

How quickly can DryX respond to a water damage emergency in Melbourne?

We aim to be on-site within 60 minutes across most Melbourne suburbs. Our local teams operate 24/7, which includes nights, weekends, and public holidays. Water damage doesn’t wait for business hours, so we don’t either.

Is floodwater considered contaminated?

In many cases, yes. Floodwater can contain bacteria, sewage, chemicals, and debris, particularly when it comes from external sources, stormwater, or sewer overflows. Water that appears clean can even become contaminated if it passes through building materials. We’ll assess the water category on arrival, then apply the appropriate cleaning, sanitising and safety measures.

How long does water damage restoration usually take?

The timeline depends on the extent of the damage, the materials affected and how quickly drying begins. Most residential water damage restoration projects in Melbourne take between three and five days for drying, followed by cleaning and final verification. Larger or more complex jobs may take longer. Throughout the process, we monitor moisture levels and keep you informed so there are no surprises.

What are the most common causes of water damage in Melbourne?

Melbourne properties are commonly affected by burst or leaking pipes, roof leaks during heavy rain, stormwater ingress, overflowing fixtures, appliance failures, and rising damp. Seasonal weather changes, older plumbing systems, and mixed construction styles across the city can all contribute to water damage that spreads quickly if not addressed.

Will my insurance cover water damage restoration?

Many water damage events are covered by insurance but it depends on the cause and your policy. DryX works closely with major insurers and provides detailed moisture reports, photos, and compliance documentation to support your claim. We can’t determine coverage on behalf of the insurer, we can make the claims process clearer and less stressful with the right information.
