Why Davis Homeowners Choose Wade’s Restoration of California
Nobody in Davis wants to hand their house keys to a stranger who quotes one number on the phone and a different one at the door. Wade Ferris has been doing restoration work since 2007, the kind of operator who puts his name on the truck and will run into you again at the Davis Food Co-op. The 90-Day Done Right Promise is stamped in writing on every water, fire, and mold job: if it’s not done right, Wade makes it right. Calls are answered by a live person 24/7, including Wade himself, who has been known to pick up his own phone at two in the morning when a Mace Ranch slab leak lets go.
Wade’s crew is background-checked and uniformed, showing up with professional-grade equipment from Dri-Eaz, Phoenix, and Injectidry. The work is backed by IICRC certification and RIA affiliation, which matters when an insurance adjuster starts asking questions. Homeowners in Central Davis and over near Wildhorse get the same treatment: moisture readings taken every single day, logged, and handed to you at the end of the job. Wade deals with the adjuster directly so you’re not stuck relaying messages between two sides.
Damage Restoration Services We Offer in Davis
Water Damage Restoration
From a burst supply line in a 1970s apartment to a slow pinhole leak that’s been soaking drywall for weeks, water damage in Davis demands fast extraction and thorough drying. Wade’s team uses XPOWER air movers and dehumidifiers to get cavities dry before mold takes hold, and documents every moisture reading daily. Learn more about our Water Damage Restoration in Davis.
Mold Remediation
Davis’s tule fog winters and aging student housing create ideal conditions for mold behind walls, under sinks, and around window frames in older units. Wade’s crew contains the affected area, removes contaminated material, and verifies the fix with post-remediation readings you can see with your own eyes. Learn more about our Mold Remediation in Davis.
Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration
After a fire, soot and smoke work their way into every surface, and the odor settles deep into insulation and framing if it isn’t addressed quickly. Wade’s team cleans, seals, and restores what can be saved while coordinating with your insurance carrier on the scope of work. Learn more about our Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Davis.
Storm & Disaster Restoration
When you need Davis Storm & Disaster Restoration after a winter storm sends water through a roof or a wind event damages a Davis property, the priority is stopping further intrusion and drying the structure correctly. Wade heads out with a written scope of work so you know exactly what’s happening before anything starts.
Sewage Cleanup
Sewage backups are a biohazard and need more than a mop and a fan. The crew extracts contaminated water, removes affected materials, and sanitizes the area to a standard your family can live with.
Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup
These are the calls nobody wants to make, and Wade handles them with discretion and thoroughness. The work is done right, documented properly, and never treated like a spectacle.
Reconstruction & Cleanup
Once the drying and remediation are complete, the next step is putting the property back together. This work is scoped, scheduled, and priced in writing like any proper remodel, not rushed through on an emergency timeline.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Davis
Wade’s Restoration of California serves the entire Davis area, including these neighborhoods where we’re out regularly:
- Central Davis - dense older housing stock, many 1960s and 1970s rentals where galvanized plumbing is reaching the end of its life.
- Mace Ranch - east-side slab-on-grade construction from the 1980s and 1990s where slab leaks are a recurring headache.
- Wildhorse - newer construction with its own set of water intrusion points, particularly around windows and rooflines.
- West Davis - a mix of apartments and single-family homes, many with original fixtures due for failure.
Typical response time anywhere in Davis is under an hour for emergency water extraction.
Why Davis’s Climate & Housing Affect Damage Restoration
Davis sits in the Sacramento Valley’s tule fog belt, and that fact drives a lot of what we see on damage calls. Dense winter radiation fog can hold relative humidity near saturation for days inside poorly ventilated older rentals, which accelerates secondary mold growth after any water intrusion event. A small leak that would dry out quickly in a drier climate can turn into a mold colony behind a bathroom wall in a Davis apartment during a foggy stretch in January, which is why our Mold Remediation in Davis addresses these hidden problems early.
Then comes summer, when 100°F-plus days are routine. Surface materials dry fast in that heat, but moisture gets trapped deep in wall cavities and under slab floors, masking damage until structural rot or mold has already taken hold. The housing stock compounds the problem: most of Davis’s homes and apartments were built during the university’s 1960s through 1980s expansion, and many still have original galvanized plumbing that corrodes in the region’s moderately hard water, producing pinhole leaks behind walls and under floors. Slab-on-grade construction is common in Mace Ranch and other east-side tracts, which means slab leak detection and drying are a recurring challenge here that a restoration crew has to understand before they ever walk through the door.
Pricing for Damage Restoration in Davis
Restoration pricing in Davis depends on the category of water loss, the square footage affected, and how long the water has been sitting. A straightforward Category 1 clean-water extraction from a single room in a Davis apartment typically runs between $1,200 and $3,500. Mold remediation generally falls between $1,500 and $6,000 depending on the size of the affected area and whether containment is required. Fire and smoke cleanup is the widest range, often $4,000 to $15,000 or more depending on the extent of structural damage. Sewage cleanup typically starts around $2,500 and goes up from there. Call (855) 915-0646 and Wade will give you a straight answer, not a phone quote that changes at the door.

FAQs About Damage Restoration in Davis
In most cases, extraction equipment is running in Davis within an hour of your call. Wade answers his own phone and heads out personally on many calls. Call (855) 915-0646 and you’ll be talking to a live person immediately.
Most homeowners policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, but mold coverage varies widely and often has sub-limits. Wade deals with your adjuster directly, sends photo documentation of every step, and hands you the full moisture log so the claim doesn’t stall on missing paperwork.
If visible mold covers more than about 10 square feet or you can smell it but can’t see it, you need professional remediation with containment, not a surface wipe-down. Davis’s fog season makes hidden mold more likely to be extensive than it looks from the outside. A free assessment will tell you what you’re actually dealing with.
Wade does, directly. You won’t be the one relaying measurements, photos, and scope determinations between a remediation crew and a claims office. That’s the single biggest source of delay on restoration claims, and removing it is why Davis homeowners call Wade’s Restoration.
No trip charge inside the county. Wade will come out, assess the damage, and tell you what the fix actually requires. There’s also a Free Second Opinion on any written estimate you’ve received from another company, and a standing 10% Senior and Veteran discount on every job. Call (855) 915-0646 for a straight answer today.

What Davis Customers Say
"Sewer backup into the basement, which is about as bad as it gets. Full protective gear, everything porous out and bagged, sanitised properly, and you would never know now."
- Ignatius Oduya"Wade built proper sealed containment before he opened the mold wall and ran a scrubber the whole time. My wife has a lung condition and not once did the air in the rest of the house change."
- Chesterfield Mabry"Excellent emergency response and honest about what could and could not be saved. The equipment ran in the house for six days and the noise was genuinely hard to live with, though he did explain why it had to."
- Grantham Fairweather
