Missouri's Water Damage Specialists
Water damage is one of the most common and destructive events a property owner can face. Whether it's a burst pipe, a flooded basement, appliance malfunction, or storm-driven water intrusion, every minute you wait allows water to penetrate deeper into walls, floors, and structural materials — dramatically increasing damage and restoration costs.
At Dominion Restoration Services, our trained technicians respond 24/7 with professional-grade equipment to extract water quickly and begin the drying process immediately. We follow IICRC S500 standards for water damage remediation, ensuring the job is done correctly the first time.

- Water extractionTruck-mounted and portable extraction units remove standing water quickly and thoroughly.
- Structural dryingIndustrial air movers and dehumidifiers dry materials to target moisture levels, preventing warping and mold.
- Daily monitoringWe return daily to check moisture readings and adjust equipment until everything is completely dry.

Why Act Immediately?
Within the first 24 hours, water soaks into drywall, insulation, and wood framing. After 48 hours, mold can begin to grow. After 72 hours, structural materials may be compromised and salvage becomes more difficult and costly. Don't wait — the cost of fast action is almost always far less than the cost of delayed action.
