Who turns up in Burlington
Delta24 Restoration is a professional restoration contractor serving Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area. Our technicians are certified by the IICRC, the industry standards body for the restoration trade, in Water Damage Restoration (WRT) and Applied Structural Drying (ASD). We are WSIB cleared and carry full commercial general liability insurance. Certificate numbers and a current clearance certificate are provided on request, and property managers and adjusters routinely ask for both before we attend.
We work to the IICRC S500 standard for water damage restoration and the S520 standard for mould remediation. Every job is documented with daily moisture readings, photographs and a written scope, which is why adjusters approve our work without delay.
Asbestos work is carried out to Ontario Regulation 278/05, which sets out the procedures for Type 1, Type 2 and Type 3 operations. Mould work finishes with written post-remediation verification, which is the document a buyer, a lender or an insurer will ask to see.

How the insurance side works
Water damage is the most common home insurance claim in Ontario, and how the claim is handled usually matters more to your bill than the work itself. We document the loss from the first hour: moisture readings, photographs, a written scope, and a daily drying log. That is the evidence an adjuster needs to approve the work without arguing about it.
We bill your insurer directly. In most cases the only money you hand over is your deductible, which on Ontario policies commonly sits between $500 and $2,500.
Which losses are covered depends entirely on where the water came from. A burst pipe or a failed appliance is normally covered under a standard policy. Water coming up through a floor drain is sewer backup, which is almost always a separate endorsement you have to have purchased. Water entering from outside during heavy rain is overland flood, which is another endorsement again. A single storm can produce all three at once, which is why adjusters care so much about the source.

Common questions
Do you actually cover Burlington?
Yes, for emergency water damage and mould work. It is at the western edge of our range so we will be honest about arrival time.
Does escarpment runoff cause flooding here?
It contributes. Properties below the escarpment can take on overland water quickly in a heavy storm regardless of their own drainage.
My basement is flooded. What should I do first?
Stay out of the water if it is near outlets, appliances or the electrical panel, and have the power cut first. If you smell gas, leave the house before calling. Photograph everything before you move it, and do not start pulling up carpet or cutting drywall until the loss is documented.
What will flooded basement cleanup cost me?
If the loss is covered, usually just your deductible. We bill your insurer directly and deal with the adjuster on your behalf. For uninsured work we provide a written quote before we start, and the fastest way to keep the cost down is to call early, because material that is dried in place does not have to be replaced.
