Who We Are
Who we are, plainly
Townskeeping Restoration is a referral service. That is the whole job. We are not a restoration company, and we do not own pumps, fans or trucks. No workers from Townskeeping Restoration will show up at your door.
What we do is simple. We help homeowners in Pittsburgh and the Greater Pittsburgh area reach independent local providers who handle water damage. Those providers run their own businesses. They hire their own staff, carry their own equipment, and set their own prices.
How your request is routed
You reach out by phone or by the request form. You share the basics: what happened, where the water is, and roughly how much there is. Your request goes to a provider in our network that serves your part of PA. Hours and availability vary by provider, so the first thing to ask is whether they can come out, and when.
From there, the conversation is between you and the provider. They explain what they see, what they plan to do, and what it may cost. You can say yes, ask more questions, or say no.
What the providers handle
Providers in our network work on three kinds of jobs: general water damage restoration, water extraction and structural drying, and flooded basement cleanup. Each one has its own page on this site if you want more detail.
What we do not do
We do not promise a price, an arrival time or an insurance result. Providers set those, and they can explain them. Ask each provider for license and insurance details yourself, and ask for them in writing. That is a smart habit with any contractor, and it takes only a minute.
Serving Pittsburgh and Nearby
Homes in the Greater Pittsburgh area deal with a particular kind of water. Winters are cold and snowy. Frost cracks pipes. Spring snowmelt soaks the ground. Coastal storms push rain sideways and raise water tables. A lot of houses here are older, with full basements and stone or block foundations that let moisture creep in over time.
That mix means water damage can show up in different ways. It might be a burst pipe in January, a damp wall in April, or a basement with an inch of water after a heavy storm. Multi-family buildings add another layer, because water from one unit can travel to the next.
Providers in our network know these patterns. Many of them work on older houses every week, and many can respond quickly when you reach them. Availability still varies, so it is worth checking before you plan around any visit.
If you are in Pittsburgh or a nearby town in PA, you can request a callback to check provider availability.
If you would rather lay out the details in writing, send a request and a provider can respond with questions and a written estimate.
What to Know Before You Hire
First steps while you wait
If it is safe, stop the water at its source. Shut the main valve for a broken pipe. Stay out of any room where water is near outlets or the electrical panel, and have the power turned off by a professional if you are unsure. Move rugs, boxes and small furniture to dry ground. Take plenty of photos and short videos before you touch much.
Questions worth asking a provider
You are about to let someone into your home, so ask plainly. Do you carry license and insurance, and can I see them? What equipment will you use? Will you measure moisture and record it? Can I have a written estimate before work begins?
What a good answer sounds like
A solid provider answers without fuss. They explain the steps in everyday words. They mention moisture readings, drying equipment and how long drying often takes. They tell you what they can and cannot know until they see the damage.
Red flags to watch for
Be careful if someone pushes you to sign on the spot, will not put a price in writing, asks for the full amount upfront, or avoids questions about insurance. Vague answers and big promises are warning signs too.
What it may cost
Costs vary a lot by job. In the U.S., many water damage jobs fall somewhere between about $1,200 and $5,000. Larger floods, sewage or long drying times can cost more. A written quote is the only way to know your number.
Insurance and your claim
Some policies may cover sudden damage, such as a burst pipe. Others exclude certain causes, like seepage over time or groundwater. Check your policy, or ask your insurer. Providers can often help document damage for a claim.
Mold and slow drying
Damp materials left alone can grow mold. That is why drying matters as much as removing standing water. If you see dark spots or smell something musty, tell the provider early.
Older homes and winter water
Stone and block foundations, old plumbing and cold snaps all raise the odds of leaks. After a thaw or a storm, check basement corners, pipe runs and ceilings. Catching a small problem early often keeps a repair smaller.
Start Your Request
Ready when you are. Tell us what happened and where the water is, and your request goes to an independent provider in our network. You can also request a callback to check provider availability.
