Our take: Reviews lean toward big, disruptive losses where belongings have to be moved and rooms rebuilt. Worth a call for a fire or whole-floor flood rather than a small leak.

How we score

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated the business, compared with other Austin restoration companies. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.8 from hundreds of people carries more weight than a 5.0 from a handful. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

What drives water damage restoration cost in Austin? (2026)

None of these companies publishes prices, so there is no cost table. Price usually moves with how much of the structure got wet, how long drying takes, whether materials must be torn out, and whether the job continues into a rebuild.

Serving Austin and the surrounding counties

These companies are based in north, central and southwest Austin. Restoration 1 of Austin says it covers Travis, Williamson and Hays counties, and SERVPRO of Hyde Park/Central Austin mentions Tarrytown and Northwest Hills on its site. Searching for water damage restoration near me? Each listing shows a phone number so you can ask who can reach your address soonest.

What to ask before you hire a water damage company

  • How soon can a crew be at the property, and is there a 24-hour line?
  • Will you take moisture readings and show me when the structure is dry?
  • Do you work directly with my insurance company, and can you help document the loss?
  • Do you also rebuild, or only dry out and hand off to another contractor?
  • Will drying equipment run around the clock, and how loud is it?

Frequently asked questions

Will an Austin restoration company help with my insurance claim?

Reviewers of several businesses here say so. A PuroClean customer was walked through the next steps of a homeowners claim, a Restoration 1 of Austin project contact stayed on a call with an insurer, and a Total Restoration of Texas customer says the company works smoothly with insurance. Ask your own company what paperwork it will prepare.

How long does drying take after a leak or flood?

It varies by job. One Total Restoration of Texas reviewer had a washing-machine flood dried over about five to six days, then continued for five more days until moisture readings cleared. An ATEX reviewer reported equipment running around the clock for four days. Ask for a drying plan and a way to confirm dryness.

Can the same company do the repairs after the water is gone?

Some can. Reviewers describe rebuild or repair work at PuroClean, Restoration 1 of Austin, SERVPRO of Hyde Park/Central Austin and ATEX Water Damage & Restoration, and Total Restoration of Texas lists rebuilding on its site. Confirm in writing whether the estimate covers drying only or the rebuild too.

The bottom line

PuroClean is the safe default for a leak or flood you want handled from drying to rebuild, and Total Restoration of Texas is the pick if a perfect rating and fast arrival matter most. Whoever you call, ask for the scope and the drying plan in writing.
