Why Pomona Homeowners Choose Wade’s Restoration of California
Homeowners in Lincoln Park and the older blocks around Garey Avenue have dealt with national chains that quote one number on the phone and a different one at the door. That does not happen here. Wade gives you a written scope before work starts, and the price does not change unless the job changes and you approve it first. In neighborhoods like Westmont and Phillips Ranch, that straight talk is why neighbors recommend us to neighbors.
Every water, fire, and mold job comes with the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If it is not done right, Wade makes it right. He also hands you the full moisture log from every day of drying, not a verbal “it feels dry to me.” Almost nobody else in the trade does that. Our crews are background-checked, uniformed, and IICRC-certified, and we run professional-grade equipment from Dri-Eaz, Phoenix, Injectidry, XPOWER, and B-Air. Wade grew up in this trade and has been doing restoration since 2007, and he will be the one walking your property, not a rotating cast of subcontractors.
Damage Restoration Services We Offer in Pomona
Water Damage Restoration
A burst supply line or a failed water heater can drop hundreds of gallons into your Pomona house in under an hour. We extract the standing water, set up professional drying equipment, and monitor moisture levels daily until your structure is actually dry. Learn more about our Water Damage Restoration in Pomona.
Mold Remediation
Pomona’s pre-1970s wood-frame homes and older rental stock hold moisture in ways newer construction does not. When mold shows up, we contain the affected area, remove contaminated material, and document everything so you and your insurer know exactly what was done. Learn more about our Mold Remediation in Pomona.
Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration
Brush fires in the San Gabriel foothills and kitchen fires alike leave smoke, soot, and ash that keep causing damage long after the flames are out. We clean structural surfaces, remove lingering odor, and coordinate with your adjuster on what can be restored versus what must be replaced. Learn more about our Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Pomona.
Storm & Disaster Restoration
When winter storm runoff channels out of the mountains, Pomona homes can take on debris-laden water that is far more damaging than a clean pipe leak. We handle the extraction, drying, and structural drying plan, and we document everything for your carrier.
Sewage Cleanup
Sewage is a Category 3 water loss, and it requires containment, antimicrobial treatment, and careful disposal protocols. Pomona’s cast-iron sewer lines in older homes are prone to cracking and root intrusion, which means we see this more often than people expect. We treat it as the serious contamination it is.
Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup
These are the calls nobody plans for. We handle them with discretion, proper containment, and full compliance with disposal regulations. The work is done by trained people who understand both the regulations and the human reality of the situation.
Reconstruction & Cleanup
After the water is out or the fire damage is cleaned, your house still has to be put back together. We handle framing repairs, drywall replacement, flooring, painting, and finish work, so you are not juggling a restoration company and a separate contractor. One crew, one plan, one person accountable: Wade.
If you are not sure which service you need, call (855) 915-0646 and describe what happened. Wade or a senior crew lead will tell you honestly whether this is something you can handle yourself or something we should get moving on.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Pomona
Our crews work across the city every week, from the tree-lined streets of Lincoln Park to the hillside homes in Phillips Ranch, the mid-century tract blocks of Westmont, and the older rental-dense neighborhoods north of Holt Avenue. Typical initial response for Pomona jobs is under an hour. We know which blocks have original 1940s plumbing, which have 1970s aluminum wiring, and which apartment buildings have multiple unpermitted drywall layers.

Why Pomona’s Climate & Housing Affect Damage Restoration
Pomona sits inland at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains, and that geography dictates the kind of damage we see. Santa Ana wind events funnel through the passes and drive brush fires in the adjacent foothill zones, leaving homes across the city with smoke and soot infiltration that coastal contractors rarely handle at scale. Those same mountains channel intense winter-storm runoff, which means flash flooding and debris-laden water intrusion are real risks for homes near the city’s natural drainage paths.
The housing stock makes every job more complicated. Pomona’s dominant inventory is pre-1970s wood-frame construction, much of it still carrying original galvanized plumbing. The Pomona Valley’s notoriously hard groundwater accelerates corrosion in those galvanized supply lines, so a pinhole leak in a wall cavity can go unnoticed for weeks. By the time we open the wall, we are often looking at mold, rotted framing, and sometimes asbestos-containing floor adhesives or textured ceilings. That means a routine water-damage call in Pomona regularly escalates into a combined restoration and hazmat job. Homes in neighboring suburbs like Diamond Bar or Chino Hills simply do not present the same conditions. You need a crew that has seen this specific combination and knows how to handle it without making things worse.
Pricing for Damage Restoration in Pomona
Honest numbers help you plan, so here is what Pomona homeowners typically see. Water extraction and drying for a single room usually runs $1,200 to $2,800 depending on how long the water sat and what got wet. Mold remediation for a contained bathroom or closet often lands between $1,500 and $4,000, but a full crawlspace or multi-room job can go higher. Fire and smoke cleanup typically starts around $2,500 and scales with square footage and how deep the soot penetrated. Sewage cleanup usually runs $2,000 to $5,000 because of containment and disposal requirements.
Every job gets a written scope before any work starts. And remember: senior and veteran customers get 10% off, always. If you have a written estimate from another company, Wade will give you a free second opinion, and there is no trip charge within our county. Call (855) 915-0646 and get real numbers for your specific situation.

FAQs About Damage Restoration in Pomona
Most Pomona calls get an initial response inside the hour, and extraction equipment is typically running the same day you call. Wade answers his own phone at (855) 915-0646, so you will know exactly who is coming and when.
In most cases, yes, but the claim process is where homeowners get frustrated. Wade deals with the adjuster directly and provides photo documentation and moisture logs that support your claim, so you are never stuck relaying information between two sides.
It often does. Homes with original galvanized plumbing, asbestos-containing materials, and plaster walls require restoration protocols that newer drywall-era homes do not. We identify those conditions during the initial assessment and factor them into the written scope before work starts.
Cleaning surface mold without addressing the moisture source and contaminated materials behind the wall usually means the mold returns within weeks. We contain the area, remove affected material, and dry the cavity properly, then document everything so you have proof the job was done right.
When restoration uncovers unpermitted additions or modifications, code-compliance questions can come up before we can close out the permit. Wade has worked with the City of Pomona Building & Safety division on these situations before, and he will walk you through the options honestly. Call (855) 915-0646 if you are facing this right now.

What Pomona Customers Say
"He got there fast and the drying was thorough. The rebuild afterwards took longer than I had hoped waiting on matching flooring, and I would rather he had told me that at the start than a fortnight in."
- Antonia Mercado"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."
