Water category
Clean supply water is the cheapest to dry. Gray water adds pad removal and antimicrobial. Sewage and storm floodwater add removal of porous materials and containment.
Finished basements
Carpet, pad, paneling and drywall on a basement slab all hold water. A finished lower level costs more to dry than the same square footage upstairs.
How fast drying started
Water left for days soaks deeper, can degrade to a dirtier category and turns drying into tear-out. Speed is the cheapest variable to control.

Water Damage Cost Calculator questions
How accurate is this calculator?
It gives a typical range based on the main cost drivers. The actual scope comes from a walkthrough and a moisture map of the home.
Why does the water source change the price so much?
Category 1 water can usually be dried in place. Category 3 water means removing the carpet, pad, drywall and insulation it touched, which adds labor and disposal.
Why does a finished basement cost more?
Finished basements stack porous materials on a cold slab: carpet, pad, paneling, drywall and insulation. More of it has to come out or be dried, and slabs dry slowly.
Does insurance pay these costs?
Sudden and accidental water damage is often covered, while groundwater, flooding and sewer backup are treated differently. Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
Why does waiting cost more?
Water spreads and soaks deeper every hour, and after a few days clean water can degrade to a dirtier category. Faster drying means less removal.
