Expert Water Damage Restoration for Morse Reservoir Homeowners

Morse Reservoir is a 1,800 acre reservoir built in the 1950s by the Indianapolis Water Company to supply drinking water to central Indiana, and homes along its shoreline in communities like North Harbour and South Harbour face persistent moisture intrusion risks from fluctuating water levels year round. Whether the water came from a supply line failure, an appliance leak, a roof intrusion, or a sewage backup, the first response decides the outcome for your Morse Reservoir home.

We extract, contain, dry to verified standard, then rebuild what cannot be saved.

Yes. Morse Reservoir Water Restoration technicians are trained for water restoration and mold remediation standards. certification is the standard set by the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification. It is required by most insurance carriers for mitigation work to be approved on a claim. Beyond certification, our crews work to the appropriate methods on every job.
Drying happens at the molecular level. Water has to evaporate from the saturated material, get carried away by air movement, and condense in the dehumidifier. The process cannot be rushed past the physical limits of evaporation rate. Morse Reservoir Water Restoration sizes equipment correctly and runs the drying chamber 24 hours a day, but the materials themselves dictate the timeline. We take daily readings and only remove equipment when materials reach target dryness.
Morse Reservoir was constructed as a controlled water supply reservoir, which means shoreline lots were platted extremely close to the water and many sit at low elevations relative to full pool. When the reservoir rises during heavy spring rains or the Cicero Creek watershed floods upstream, surrounding neighborhoods experience groundwater intrusion and surface flooding that standard drainage cannot handle. The age of the housing stock in North Harbour and South Harbour adds aging waterproofing and sump infrastructure to that geographic exposure. Morse Reservoir Water Restoration crews classify water Category on every Morse Reservoir job before drying equipment goes in. The determination is based on the source (sanitary supply line vs sewage line vs unknown), the visible contamination, the duration of exposure, and the materials affected. The classification is documented in your file with photos and source evidence. Misclassification, intentional or accidental, is how Category 3 jobs become mold remediation jobs 60 days later.
Visible mold is the obvious sign: dark spots on walls, ceilings, in cabinets, around windows. Musty or earthy odors developing 24 to 48 hours after a water event are a strong indicator. Allergy or respiratory symptoms in occupants that improve when away from home suggest exposure. Morse Reservoir Water Restoration can test air quality and surface samples on suspect areas to confirm. If mold is present, established practices remediation protocols apply.
First, check safety. If the water is from a Category 3 source, do not enter the affected area. If there is any electrical risk near the water, shut off power to that circuit at the panel. Second, stop the source if you can safely do so, by shutting off the main water valve. Third, document with photos before you move or remove anything. Fourth, contact your insurance carrier to open a claim. Do not start cleaning before our crew arrives, since the insurance documentation is easier with the original scene intact.
Every truck carries water extraction equipment with commercial grade pumps, dehumidifiers sized to the affected square footage, air movers for surface drying, air movers for cavity drying, moisture meters, moisture detection tools, hygrometers for ambient humidity tracking, plastic sheeting for containment, HEPA air scrubbers and negative air machines for Category 3 or mold work, and full PPE for contaminated work.
Yes. Morse Reservoir Water Restoration works with the homeowner on material selections for reconstruction within the insurance approved scope.
