Excellent rating
Based on 179 reviewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing customer service. Demo and dryout process went smoothly. Jimmy, Tony & Julian did a fantastic job. There attention to detail was spot on. I will highly recommend American Response Team to friends and family if they're in need of water damage services. Job we'll done boys!!! Eric Young4. June, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Christian, Moises and the rest of the crew are outstanding! Honest, efficient, and kind. They are excellent communicators and very trustworthy. They do great quality work and are quick to respond. Definitely highly recommended! Michael Chew13. May, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve had to call on American Response Team twice now—both times for the same general area in our home. The first time was about 2.5 years ago, and unfortunately, a new leak developed in the same area recently, this time coming from the toilet. Understandably, I was initially concerned that this might have been due to the original installation—perhaps a reused wax ring or something missed. However, I really appreciated how the owner, Will, handled the situation. He took the time to personally speak with me, look up our original file, and even went as far as sending photos from the original job showing that the wax ring installed was indeed brand new. That level of follow-through and transparency was very reassuring. Both times we’ve used them, their response time and communication have been excellent. They were professional, efficient, and respectful of our home. While I obviously hope I won’t need their services again anytime soon, it’s a relief to know that if I do, I’ll be in good hands. Highly recommend American Response Team for their integrity and customer service. Sam Spiegel16. April, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. American Response Team is fantastic! Their crew is fast, efficient, and gets the job done right the first time. I’ve been consistently impressed by their professionalism and attention to detail. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable team to take care of their property—you’re in great hands! Sandra Jacinto8. April, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Honest and professional. Miho Gilles7. April, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This review covers the two water leaks at my condo during the past 4+ months. The water heater was replaced since I thought that it was leaking. About a week afterwards, I noticed that the carpet was very damp again. My plumber also noticed that the drywall adjacent to the water heater was very damp. He suggested that I call America Response to remediate the water damage caused by a leak from the upstairs condo. Christian from American Response set up fans with a dehumidifier for a four day dry out period. The reconstruction team from American Response removed the damaged drywall and observed the source of the leak from the upstairs water heater. The upstairs owner then presumably had the leaky pipe repaired. The reconstruction team did a fantastic job with the repairs (new drywall with insulation, retexturing with painting, and reassembly of affected cabinets and backsplash). American Response deserves a 5 stars rating in terms of communications and excellent work quality. Unfortunately, the repair didn't hold, so I had to call American Response to deal with a repeat water damage control recently. They again responded quickly and dried out the walls and carpeting to prevent any growth of mold/pathogens. I highly recommend American Response to deal with any water damage scenarios quickly and professionally so that you can have "peace of mind." Thank you, American Response Team. Kenway Hoey31. March, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jimmy and Tony came out for 2 separate issues. Both were on time, very knowledgeable, thorough in their inspection, and very honest about their findings. They gave advice about how we could resolve the minor issues ourselves and didn’t require hiring them. This company is truly looking to help people and not just be hired for the money. If you’re looking for a knowledgable company with their honest opinion, call these guys! I’m so glad I did! Jessica Day14. March, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. American Response Team did a nice job with remediation and reconstruction of our kitchen when we had a flood. I especially appreciate Arturo Meza who answered his phone when I called, got back to me when he said he would, and did what he said he would do. That's hard to find anymore. Lisa Contreras24.

Based on 198 reviews This review is long overdue. We had to call American Response Team at the end of last year for water damage caused by a leak in the wall. It was a stressful situation, but after I filed a claim with the insurance, they handled everything. Everyone on the team was very professional. We first met with Manny, who came back as many times as needed to dry the water-damaged area. The restoration crew, managed efficiently by Arturo, was hardworking and super friendly. Thank you, American Response Team! Claire T.May 19, 2025 Amazing from start to finish! Initial assessment, communication, customer service...ALL positive. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Shout out to Director of Operations, Jimmy! Melissa G.May 17, 2025 We've had to call on American Response Team twice now--both times for the same general area in our home.

Samuel C.April 16, 2025 Outstanding and professional company!! highly recommend to anyone looking for water remediation, and the best part is that they also handle repairs . manuel c.April 9, 2025 July 2024, pipe burst causing water damage to kitchen and 2 bathrooms. American Response Team handled the cleanup and repairs. 9 months later, work is complete. I would like to thank Moises Cibrian, Operations Manager, for coordinating the repairs. Thank you for your help and patience. In particular, however, I commend Arturo Meza, Project Coordinator. When things got dicey due to insurance issues, communication issues, work quality, etc., I could always count on Arturo to answer my calls for help in a matter of minutes. He was always able to resolve issues in a timely manner and keep me informed. Dependable, available, reliable, a true professional. And he kept me sane, seeing me through the entire process. Additionally, I want to thank all of the mitigation folks and vendors for their hard work. Maureen C.March 22, 2025 Called with a concern of mold from a leak and Tony came out the very next day. He was on time, respectful, professional, knowledgeable, thorough with his inspection, and most importantly he was honest! He was straight up with his findings - which was way better than I anticipated. Jimmy also came out a separate time for another mold concern in our bathroom. He was all the things Tony was and also gave me some really great advice that didn't require me to hire them. It such a breath of fresh air to have quality companies like this still exist where they are there to help and not trying to take advantage of you! If you're in need of (possible) mold assistance, call these guys!! You'll be so glad you did! Jessica D.March 14, 2025 Jimmy was awesome. We weren't sure if we had a mold problem or not. He came out and didn't find any problems. He gave a few recommendations, but told us the truth. We don't need remediation. I really appreciate Jimmy's honesty and patience. Very informative. elizabeth l.February 20, 2025 Christian Carmona was fantastic. He was honest, straightforward, and didn't try to upsell me on unnecessary fixes. He gave me excellent advice and saved me money. Highly recommend him for his integrity and expertise. Xiang M.January 28, 2025 The team at American Response has been so helpful. Had a kitchen leak and they were out within a very short amount of time to start the drying process. Felipe has been super helpful in walking me through the process and all next steps. The speed and thoroughness has been amazing and they think of every detail. Bridget S.July 26, 2024Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

Emergency Water Damage Restoration
Water damage requires immediate professional attention. Our restoration services in San Diego include 24/7 emergency water damage restoration that stops destruction before it spreads. Whether you’re dealing with burst pipes, flooding, or appliance leaks, we respond fast to protect your property.
San Diego’s diverse neighborhoods face different water challenges. Older homes have aging plumbing. Coastal properties battle humidity and salt air corrosion. Hillside homes risk erosion during heavy rains. Our restoration services in San Diego address each situation with expertise and proper equipment.
The EPA emphasizes that water-damaged areas must be dried within 24-48 hours to prevent mold growth. We use industrial pumps for extraction, commercial dehumidifiers for moisture removal, and thermal imaging to find hidden water. This comprehensive approach ensures complete drying and prevents future problems.
Complete Water Emergency Solutions
Our restoration services in San Diego handle every type of water damage. Common emergencies include broken pipes, water heater failures, toilet overflows, dishwasher leaks, and washing machine floods. We also fix slab leaks under foundations, bathroom water damage from showers and tubs, and crawl space flooding.
Many property owners make costly mistakes after water damage. Avoid common errors that worsen damage by calling professionals immediately. Understanding what happens when water damage is ignored shows why quick action saves money and prevents health hazards.
Comprehensive Mold Remediation Services
Mold threatens both property and health. Our restoration services in San Diego include expert mold remediation that eliminates contamination and prevents regrowth. San Diego’s Mediterranean climate creates ideal mold conditions—warm temperatures and coastal humidity provide perfect breeding grounds.
Every mold project begins with detailed mold inspection to locate all affected areas. Mold grows in hidden spaces like wall cavities, attics, crawl spaces, and under flooring. Our certified technicians use moisture meters and infrared cameras to detect problems invisible to the naked eye.
The timeline for mold growth after water damage is surprisingly short. Spores begin colonizing within 24-48 hours of water exposure. Visible growth appears within days. Without professional treatment, mold spreads rapidly throughout properties.
Safe Mold Removal Process
Our restoration services in San Diego use proven mold remediation techniques that protect your health. We establish containment barriers to prevent spore spread. HEPA air scrubbers filter contaminated air. Specialized antimicrobial treatments kill mold at the source. All contaminated materials are removed and disposed of properly.
Families often ask, “Can you stay home during mold remediation?” Safety depends on contamination extent and health conditions. Our team provides honest assessments and relocation recommendations when necessary.
Understanding San Diego’s mold season patterns helps you prepare. We also recommend effective mold prevention products that reduce future risks, especially in moisture-prone areas.
Professional Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration
Fire destroys homes and businesses in ways many people don’t realize. Flames cause obvious damage, but smoke and soot create hidden destruction that worsens over time. Our restoration services in San Diego provide complete fire damage restoration that addresses every aspect of fire loss.
We start by securing your property and removing hazardous materials. Our technicians then clean all affected surfaces using specialized products that neutralize acids and remove odors. Understanding the difference between fire damage mitigation and restoration helps you make informed decisions about repairs.
California’s wildfire risks affect San Diego County properties even without direct flames. Smoke from distant fires penetrates buildings and damages contents. Our guide on fire season preparation and smoke damage prevention provides practical protection strategies.
The complete fire damage restoration process includes assessment, debris removal, cleaning, odor elimination, and reconstruction. Each step requires specific expertise and equipment. Our restoration services in San Diego handle everything from start to finish.
Insurance claims after fires feel overwhelming. We simplify the process by documenting everything thoroughly and communicating directly with adjusters. Learn how to handle insurance after fire damage to protect your interests and maximize coverage.
Flood Damage Recovery Services
San Diego’s occasional heavy storms bring flooding risks, especially in low-lying areas and near creeks. Our restoration services in San Diego include emergency flood restoration that removes water, dries structures, and completes repairs quickly.
Smart preparation reduces flood damage significantly. Our storm preparation guide explains simple protective measures before weather arrives. Small actions like clearing drainage and sealing entry points prevent major problems.
Many property owners don’t understand flood insurance. The question “Does homeowners insurance cover flooding?” has complex answers. Standard policies typically exclude flood damage, requiring separate coverage. We help you understand your policy and document losses properly.
Our team follows proven emergency water damage protocols that minimize destruction. Rapid water extraction, thorough drying, antimicrobial treatment, and complete restoration return properties to pre-loss condition or better.
Sewage Cleanup and Biohazard Services
Sewage backups create immediate health emergencies requiring professional response. Our restoration services in San Diego provide expert sewage cleanup that eliminates contamination and restores safe conditions.
Black water contains dangerous bacteria, viruses, and parasites causing serious illness. Never attempt sewage cleanup yourself. Our certified technicians follow strict sewage contamination regulations and safety protocols. We wear protective equipment, use industrial disinfectants, and properly dispose of contaminated materials.
We also handle specialized biohazard cleanup for situations involving blood, bodily fluids, or other biological hazards. Every job receives discreet, professional service with complete attention to safety and sanitation.
Complete Reconstruction Services
Some damage requires more than cleanup—it demands rebuilding. Our restoration services in San Diego include comprehensive reconstruction services that return properties to perfect condition.
Knowing when reconstruction is necessary saves time and money. Extensive damage often requires full rebuilding to meet codes and ensure safety. We provide honest assessments and work with insurance companies to secure proper coverage.
From structural repairs to complete remodels, our licensed contractors handle every reconstruction aspect. We coordinate all trades, obtain necessary permits, and maintain quality throughout the project.
Insurance Claims Assistance
Navigating insurance claims adds stress to already difficult situations. Our restoration services in San Diego include complete claims assistance that maximizes your coverage. We document everything with photos, moisture readings, and detailed reports.
Understanding average insurance payouts for water damage helps set realistic expectations. We explain coverage limits and work to get you fair settlements. Knowing why claims get denied helps avoid common problems.
We understand different water damage types for insurance—clean water, gray water, and black water all affect coverage differently. Our team helps you document everything correctly to protect your claim.
