About 404 Water Damage
404 Water Damage is an independent consumer guide to water damage and mold for homeowners in Atlanta and the surrounding metro. It is not a restoration company.
What is 404 Water Damage?
404 Water Damage is a set of plain-language guides for Atlanta homeowners dealing with a leak, a flood or mold. Each guide explains what the work involves, what order it happens in and what to ask before you sign. The site also lists a phone line that connects you with a restoration company that serves your ZIP code.
Is 404 Water Damage a restoration company?
No. 404 Water Damage does not remove water, dry buildings, remove mold or do repairs. It does not send crews, give estimates or schedule jobs. When you call the number on this site, you speak with an independent company, and any agreement for work is between you and that company.
Where does the information come from?
The guides are based on public agencies and industry standards bodies, including the U.S. EPA, the CDC, the IICRC, the Georgia Department of Public Health, UGA Extension and the Georgia Secretary of State. Each guide lists its sources at the bottom and links to them in the text, so you can check any statement yourself.
How are the guides checked?
Every factual statement has to trace back to a published source. When two official sources give different answers, such as different size limits or mixing ratios, the claim is left out rather than picking one. Each guide shows the date it was last reviewed.
- No company reviews, ratings or rankings.
- No price quotes or cost promises. Where a guide shows typical costs, they are published survey figures with the source named.
- No advice that replaces a licensed contractor, your insurer, a lawyer or a doctor.
How is the site paid for?
The site is paid a referral fee when a call through its phone line connects with a restoration company. That fee does not change what the guides say. The phone line page explains how calls work.
