Protocols · 01

Six restoration
protocols.

Each protocol is its own checklist of equipment, readings, and acceptance criteria — so the work is repeatable, documentable, and signed off the same way every time.

PROTOCOL · P-01
Cat-3
Sewage & Cat-3 cleanup

Black water, sewer overflow, contaminated runoff — the worst-case scenarios. Full PPE, contaminated-water protocols, antimicrobial sanitation, structural drying, and rebuild coordination. Documented every step.

Call right now
PROTOCOL · P-02
Class 3/4
Water extraction

Burst pipes, supply-line failures, slab leaks, storm runoff, washer-line breaks — same-hour extraction with truck-mounted equipment. Standing water out before mold gets a foothold.

Call right now
PROTOCOL · P-03
Class 1/2
Structural drying

Industrial dehumidifiers and air movers running continuously, daily moisture-meter readings on every wall, every floor. We pull equipment when readings hit dry-standard — not on a calendar guess.

PROTOCOL · P-04
Class 2/3
Mold remediation

Spore-count testing, negative-pressure HEPA containment, removal of affected porous material, antimicrobial treatment of substrate, third-party post-remediation verification before any rebuild.

PROTOCOL · P-05
Class 1/2
Kitchen & bath damage

Under-sink supply leaks, dishwasher floods, ice-maker line failures, shower-pan leaks. Source-find with thermal cameras, dry the cabinet cavity, replace what's compromised.

Equipment · 03

Real readings.
Real numbers.

A dehumidifier alone doesn't dry a flooded room — and a fan alone just blows damp air around. Each room gets the right combination of dehumidifier capacity (in pints per day) and air-mover throw, sized to the cubic footage and the wetness of the materials.

Daily meter readings tell us where the moisture is and whether the equipment is doing its job. We don't pull the kit until every reading is at dry-standard.

  • Pin & pinless moisture meters for surface and subsurface readings.
  • Thermal-imaging cameras to find moisture trapped behind drywall.
  • Industrial dehumidifiers sized to the cubic footage of each room.
  • Air movers placed for proper directional airflow across wet materials.
  • Daily written readings attached to the insurance documentation packet.
Mold protocol · 04

When the leak
becomes mold.

Mold can start growing on wet drywall in 24–48 hours. Once it's established, it isn't a cleanup — it's a remediation, with containment, removal, and verification before any rebuild.

Contained, removed, verified.

When mold is already established on a wall surface, a quick wipe-down doesn't fix it — spores spread through the air, contaminate the rest of the property, and the colony grows back. The IICRC remediation protocol is non-negotiable: spore-count testing, negative-pressure HEPA containment, removal of affected porous material, antimicrobial treatment, and post-remediation verification before any drywall or paint goes back up.

The Valley
trusts Chatsworth.

One-hundred-eighty-seven verified reviews averaging 4.9★ — from Chatsworth, Northridge, Porter Ranch, and the rest of the SF Valley. Real losses, real claims, real rooms restored.

★★★★★

Slab leak under the kitchen finally surfaced through the laminate floor on a Saturday afternoon. Chatsworth Restoration had a tech in my driveway in under forty minutes, located the leak with thermal imaging, lifted the affected flooring, and had three dehumidifiers running before dinner. Drying readings every morning, equipment pulled exactly when the meters said dry. Worth every penny.

★★★★★

Found mold behind the master bathroom drywall after a slow toilet supply leak we never caught. The team contained the area with plastic and a HEPA scrubber, removed the affected drywall and insulation, treated the studs, and brought in a third-party tester to verify clearance before any rebuild. Insurance covered most of it because every step was documented.

Storm runoff came down the hill in Porter Ranch and flooded the lower-level family room one night during a January storm. They were there inside an hour, ran extractors all night, set up containment, and dried the wall cavities over five days. Everything came back to normal — the carpet pad they replaced is the only sign anything happened.

Common questions · 08

Before
you call.

The questions Chatsworth and SF Valley homeowners ask most often. If yours isn't here, the dispatch line picks up — any hour of the day or night.

Are you really open 24 hours in Chatsworth?
Yes — Chatsworth Restoration runs a true 24/7 emergency line. A live dispatcher answers any hour of the day or night, and we routinely send a crew across Chatsworth, Northridge, Porter Ranch, Granada Hills, Canoga Park and the rest of the San Fernando Valley overnight, on weekends, and during winter storm events.
How fast can a crew reach me in the SF Valley?
From our base at 9781 Cozycroft Ave in Chatsworth, typical response time across the SF Valley is under sixty minutes — often under thirty for Chatsworth, Northridge, West Hills, and Canoga Park directly. The 118 freeway lets us reach Porter Ranch and Granada Hills quickly, and we keep a second crew on rotation for Woodland Hills and Winnetka.
Do you bill the insurance company directly?
Yes. We document the loss with photographs, write up the moisture readings room by room, prepare the scope of work, and bill the insurance company directly on covered claims. You make one phone call — to us — and we manage the adjuster relationship from there.
How long does the drying process actually take?
Most residential water-damage jobs reach dry-standard in three to five days with industrial dehumidifiers and air movers running continuously. We take daily moisture-meter readings and only pull the equipment when every reading is at the safe threshold for the affected materials — not on a calendar guess.
What happens if mold is found after a leak?
Mold can begin growing on wet drywall and porous materials in as little as 24 to 48 hours, which is why response speed and proper drying matter so much. If mold is already present, we test for spore counts, contain the area with negative-pressure HEPA scrubbers, remove affected material, treat the substrate, and verify clearance before any rebuild.
What areas do you serve from Chatsworth?
Chatsworth, Northridge, Canoga Park, West Hills, Granada Hills, Porter Ranch, Winnetka, Woodland Hills, and the broader northwest San Fernando Valley. Dispatched 24/7 from 9781 Cozycroft Ave, Chatsworth CA 91311.
