See how we handle itHow a water job goes
Scroll through one room, start to finish. Every photo is from one of our own jobs.
A pipe lets go, a water heater fails or the rain finds a way in.
Water spreads across the floor, wicks up the drywall and drops into the crawlspace.

We pull the standing water and the soaked carpet and pad.
Anything we can save gets moved out of the way first.

Wet drywall gets cut out above the water line, and the baseboards come off.
Now the wall cavity can breathe instead of rotting behind paint.

Air movers push air across the wet framing and subfloor.
Dehumidifiers pull that water out of the air, day and night.

Hardwood can be dried in place under floor-drying mats.
The gear stays until the wood and the framing read dry. Then it goes.

New drywall, mud, paint, trim and flooring.
You get back a finished room, not a gutted one.

Water from a storm, a supply line or a backed-up drain all start the same way. Call (256) 624-8206 and we start at step one.

I woke up one morning to water pouring into my basement. Josh and his team were there within minutes and began the tear out. Felt like it took them all of 5 minutes to tear out 3 bathrooms and and entire basement floor to ceiling. Fast efficient and extremely professional. Josh answered any and every question I had with kindness and a lot of patience. I pray this doesn’t happen again but if it does, I will always call Josh at Alabama Quality Restoration. I highly recommend him over and over again.
Had two major home repairs this week back to back. In a panic, I was able to call both times and got help right away. Josh came out and fixed both my issues quick and efficiently. Definitely takes pride in his work and does an amazing job. I went from my whole basement flooded, to everything back dry and repaired very quickly. Highly recommended using! A huge life saver to me!
Josh is a great guy to do business with. He is very responsive, communicative, and trustworthy when it comes to mold remedy, home repairs, or anything you may need. He is a great worker and does great work with everything he does. If you’re needing a contractor to complete any type of job - Josh is the man for it. You won’t be disappointed. 10/10 recommend.
We were having trouble with our shower and what a great job they did with fixing the tile and baseboards.... fixing the damage and sealing to keep water from leaking behind the wall. Great quality work and very professional!
We had Josh fix some paneling that had water and mold damage to it and he went above and beyond expectations. He was very communicative the whole time and showed up every single day on time. He dry walled two of our walls and painted them and they turned out stunning!! He worked hard every day and you can tell in the finished product. I will be recommending him to everyone I know! 5/5 ⭐️
As a mortgage lender, I refer my own clients and business partners to AQR and can speak from both personal and professional experience — Joshua is reliable, responsive, and provides great service! I can confidently say the quality, integrity, and customer care are top-notch. He has pride in his work and I couldn’t be prouder to support a business that treats people right every time! Highly recommended!
