Water Damage Restoration in Wexford

We do, from the Allegheny side of the North Hills. Un-Flood-It has run out of Tarentum since December 2009, owned by Brian Marra, who also owns the plumbing company 1-Tom-Plumber Pittsburgh. Our technicians are IICRC certified, and we carry PA Home Improvement Contractor License #PA080868. Water, sewage, and mold are the whole business. We do not sell fire restoration, rebuilds, or plumbing repair, so our drying advice never pads a construction bid.

Wexford moved to the 724 area code in 1998 because it sits so close to Cranberry Township, and the subdivisions have kept growing ever since. Pine Township alone counted 14,691 people in 2020. Route 19 through the flats got a center turn lane in 2012 to handle the traffic. Wexford is one stop on the full list of North Hills towns we cover, and the same trucks handle burst pipe and flood calls across the line in Cranberry Township, water damage work in Gibsonia, and basement cleanup down in Allison Park.

Wexford sits at the top of the Pine Creek watershed. The creek drains 67 square miles of the North Hills and empties into the Allegheny River at Etna. North Fork Pine Creek runs more than two miles into Marshall and North Park Lakes, and Wexford Run is one of Pine Creek's named tributaries. About 72 percent of Pine Township sits inside the watershed, and the Pine Creek Watershed Coalition calls its floodplains poorly drained and its slopes prone to landslides. The flats along Route 19 are that floodplain.

The land around here moves. North Park Lake takes so much sediment from upstream development that the county spent $8 million in 2010 to dredge 33 acres of it back to its original depth. Every new roof and driveway in Pine Township sends rain to the creek faster than the old pasture did. The lowest basement on the street is where it goes.

On July 11, 2019, heavy rain flooded the North Hills along Route 19, and car dealerships scrambled to move inventory off a lot on Blazier Drive. On June 17, 2025, flash flooding closed Blazier Drive and Old Perry Highway, and the Peebles Volunteer Fire Department brought a boat into North Park to rescue campers from a cabin as water came over the road. North Park sits right next to Wexford, and when the park floods, the streets around it are next.

Sewage uses the same pipes as the rain. Pine Township's sewers run to the McCandless Township Sanitary Authority, which serves Pine, McCandless, Franklin Park, Marshall, and Bradford Woods with four treatment plants, 17 pumping stations, and more than 240 miles of gravity sewer. Its Pine Creek plant in Gibsonia, built between 1973 and 1975, handles the Wexford side. Pine Township runs a separate storm sewer system, and its stormwater page says sewage does not belong in it. When a storm overloads either one, a basement floor drain is the relief valve.

The Census puts the median Pine Township home at 2003, and about 3,000 of its 5,167 homes were built in 2000 or later. Newer homes mean finished basements, one sump pump, and hillside lots cut into shale. When the power goes out in a thunderstorm, the pump stops with it. The January 24 and 25, 2026 storm came with forecasts of 10 to 14 inches of snow and warnings to winterize pipes, and our own reviews describe homes with burst pipes from it.

We run around the clock, weekends and holidays included. From Tarentum we head west across the North Hills and roll a truck with extraction and drying gear into Wexford. The Route 19 flats, the subdivisions off Pearce Mill Road, the streets around North Park: all of it is a short run.

Speed is physics, not a sales line. Water wicks up drywall by the hour and soaks into subfloor and framing. Pull it out fast and you save the material. Wait a day and you replace it. Mold can start in a day or two on wet drywall, which is why the EPA tells homeowners to dry things fast.

We do not pack up when the floor feels dry. We pack up when the meters say it is dry. We map the moisture first, including the water hiding behind finished basement walls and under floating floors. Then we extract the standing water with high-powered pumps, set air movers and dehumidifiers, and sanitize when the loss calls for it. A final inspection confirms the structure is back to safe moisture levels. A carpet can feel dry while the pad under it still reads wet, and that trapped water breeds the musty smell three weeks later.

If creek water came through a window well, or a backed-up drain pushed up through the basement floor, treat it as dirty and stay out of it. That water calls for sewage backup cleanup for Wexford basements, and we show up with the right gear on the truck. If a loss sat wet before you found it, we handle the mold remediation too. Mold testing goes to a third-party hygienist.

We photograph and log the loss as we work, then bill your insurance company directly, which is the banner on the front of our website. Your policy and the cause of the loss decide what is covered. You still choose who does the work. It is your claim.
