Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After a newly discovered mold issue in our home I went on the search for a restoration company and came across Armstrong. Luckily I came across this company! They communicated well with my home insurance company, and when my home insurance requested specific breakdowns and itemized details of the necessary work, they completed it a very timely manner to not delay the process. They completed the work from top to bottom with trusted contractors to work with them along the way. They were transparent and maintained open communication with us throughout the entire process. I appreciated the fact that they cleaned up after themselves daily and treated my home with respect. Would highly recommend!

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When the aroma of mold wafted from the cabinet under the kitchen sink we called Armstrong Water Mold Cleanup and Restorations on a Tuesday. They sent their ACE Technician Jose that very afternoon to have a look and a sniff. Jose confirmed there was a mold issue in and/or under the cabinet Nick then contacted us with a proposal to examine and remove existing mold and mold-damaged wood. Wednesday morning Jose arrived with two assistants and tented the island area to contain any mold that was disturbed. They dismantled some of the kitchen island cupboards, sorry, cabinets...I lived in England for too long. They removed damaged wood and pointed out the hole in the concrete slab where the water pipes emerged, suggesting we fill the hole with cement. When they departed, Jose told us to keep the HEPP filters running for four to five hours. On Thursday we had the hole filled and the cabinets rebuilt and on Friday Jose returned with his handy helper to dismantle the tent and help with a few other items. We couldn't be happier with the Jose's work ethic and support from the office staff in Ft. Myers.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was quite skeptical about mold remediation companies as I had heard numerous horror stories about them. However, Armstrong was 5-star from the beginning to end. I can’t say enough about their integrity and honesty. Nick was always friendly, accommodating and quick to respond…as was the work crew. Their quote was fair; they did exactly what they indicated they would do, and we ended with a condo that looked (and smelled) clean and healthy. They even returned after completion (and payment) of the job to take care of some trivial matters that our tenant needed. I have no problem recommending Armstrong for mold removal and remodeling….in fact, I HIGHLY recommend them.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Josh, Jose, Daniel, Gabriel, Julio and two other gentlemen (can’t recall their names) who worked on finding the leak, and then reconstruction. They were considerate of our property, and on time. At end of day told us when they would be returning and what was the next step. When completed, you couldn’t tell there had ever been a leak. Very professional group. Would highly recommend this company.

I wasn’t pressured to do anything more than what would correct the problem. Other companies suggested lengthy and costly procedures. Let Affordable Water Restoration expertly fix your issues.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Can’t say enough about Nick and this company. First, they are where they say they’ll be when they say they’ll be there with small arrival windows. Second, they communicated extremely well. We knew our options and expected results so we could make the best choice for what to do. The team checked in with us every step of the way to be sure we were satisfied with the work being done. Thirdly, they were the cleanest contractors we have ever seen. Putting up dust barriers, drop cloths and tarps, sweeping and moping. Finally, the work is finished exactly as promised and looks great! Extremely happy we chose Armstrong and enjoyed working with everyone on our team.

- Roof leaks and storm damage
- HVAC condensate line clogs (very common in Florida!)
- Flooding from heavy rain or storm surge
- Hurricane and tropical storm damage
- Sewage backup and overflow
- Sprinkler system malfunctions

SIGNS YOU NEED PROFESSIONAL WATER DAMAGE RESTORATION
- Standing water anywhere in your home
- Wet carpet, flooring, or drywall
- Water stains on ceilings, walls, or floors

- Bubbling or peeling paint or wallpaper

If you’re seeing any of these, call us now. Waiting even a few hours significantly increases damage and cost.
WHY TIMING MATTERS, THE WATER DAMAGE CLOCK
Within 1–6 Hours:
Drywall absorbs moisture. Furniture begins to swell. Hardwood floors begin to warp. Electronics are at risk
Within 24 Hours:
Mold can begin to grow. Drywall deteriorates rapidly. Metal surfaces begin to rust. Odor sets in.
Within 48– Hours:
Mold colonies are established and spreading. Structural components are compromised. Health risks increase significantly.
Why This Matters for You:
The faster you call, the less damage — and the lower your restoration cost. Our 60-minute response time isn’t just a marketing claim. It’s how we save our clients thousands of dollars.
OUR WATER DAMAGE RESTORATION PROCESS
Step 1: Emergency Contact & Dispatch (Immediate)
You call (239) 541-4200. A live team member answers — always, 24/7. We ask a few quick questions to assess the situation, dispatch the nearest crew, and give you immediate safety instructions while you wait.
Step 2: Inspection & Assessment (On Arrival)
Our certified technicians use moisture meters, thermal imaging cameras, and hygrometers to find all water — including hidden moisture behind walls, under floors, and in ceilings. We map the damage and create a detailed scope of work before touching anything.
Step 3: Water Extraction
Using truck-mounted and portable extractors, we remove standing water rapidly. The faster water is removed, the less it spreads and the less damage occurs. Our industrial equipment moves hundreds of gallons per hour.
Step 4: Structural Drying & Dehumidification
After extraction, water has saturated your building materials. We deploy industrial air movers and commercial dehumidifiers strategically placed throughout the affected area. We monitor moisture levels daily — sometimes multiple times per day — and adjust equipment until readings reach safe levels.
This phase typically takes 3–5 days. Do not attempt to skip or rush it — incomplete drying is the #1 cause of mold growth after water damage.
Step 5: Cleaning & Sanitizing
Once dry, we clean and sanitize all affected surfaces with antimicrobial solutions to prevent mold growth and eliminate bacteria — especially important in sewage-related damage.
Step 6: Mold Prevention Treatment
We apply EPA-approved antimicrobial products to all dried surfaces as a preventive measure against mold development.
Step 7: Complete Insurance Documentation
We prepare comprehensive moisture logs, photo documentation, and scope-of-work reports that satisfy insurance carrier requirements. We submit this directly to your adjuster and follow up to ensure your claim is processed accurately.
Step 8: Restoration & Repairs
After mitigation is complete, we coordinate any necessary repairs — drywall replacement, flooring, painting, structural work. You get one point of contact for the entire project from start to finish.
OUR EQUIPMENT
Moisture Detection:
Thermal imaging cameras, pin and pinless moisture meters, hygrometers — we find water other companies miss.
Extraction:
Truck-mounted extractors, portable submersible pumps, high-capacity wet vacuums.
Drying:
Industrial air movers (hundreds of units), commercial-grade LGR dehumidifiers, desiccant dehumidifiers for extreme situations.
Cleaning:
HEPA air scrubbers, antimicrobial and disinfectant solutions, professional-grade odor counteractants.
