Why us
Why Kannapolis homeowners choose us for fire damage repairs and cleanup
We arrive within 60 minutes
We are on the road as soon as you call, any hour of the day. After a fire the building is open to the weather and the smoke is still moving through it. Getting there fast is what keeps the second round of damage from being worse than the first.
We board up and secure the building
A fire leaves broken windows, an open roof and a door anyone can walk through. We board up and tarp on the first visit, before any cleaning starts. That keeps the rain and the wind out while you talk to your insurance company.
Free estimates, no obligation
We come out and walk the property with you. We show you exactly what the water did and what it will cost to fix. The visit is free and you are under no obligation. Nothing starts until you tell us to go ahead.
IICRC certified, licensed in North Carolina
We are an IICRC certified firm, which is the industry standard for restoration work. The certification is held by the company and the number is public, so you can look it up rather than take our word for it. We are also licensed general contractors in North Carolina, so the same licenses cover the drying and the rebuild that comes after it.
We've been serving Kannapolis since 2014
We have taken fire and smoke calls since 2014, and the build changes the job. Kannapolis splits close to evenly between older and newer housing. About 44 percent of it went up in 1979 or earlier and about 41 percent since 2000. The town also holds 884 manufactured homes among its 19,631 detached houses. That range is why the first walk-through decides what gets cleaned and what comes out.
We are a full service restoration company
We handle the cleanup and the repairs. First we secure the building, remove what burned and clean the soot and smoke out of what is left. Then we put the rooms back together: framing, drywall, flooring, paint and cabinets. We are licensed general contractors in both Carolinas, so one company does all of it and you only have one number to call.
Call any hour. The number reaches the people who do the work.

Insurance billing
We work with all insurance companies for fire and smoke damage in Kannapolis
Most fire jobs here are paid by the homeowner's insurance. We write our estimates in Xactimate, the same software adjusters use, so the numbers line up the first time. We document what burned, what the smoke reached and what the water reached, and we keep you informed as the claim moves. On manufactured housing the total-loss line falls in a different place, so what the file records carries even more weight. Where your policy and carrier allow it, the billing goes straight to them.
Direct billing subject to your policy and carrier approval.
Our process
Our process
24-7 AquaDry is family owned, not a franchise, and not a name off an insurance company's vendor list. You hire us, so we work for you. The estimate is free, we bill your carrier directly for the restoration work, and the paperwork is not one more thing you are holding. Here is the sequence the work runs in, so you know what is happening and when.
The order is fixed on a fire job: board-up first, then the walk-through, then what burned comes out, then cleaning and the rebuild. Board-up comes first because an opened roof or window keeps taking weather. We then work out what the smoke reached, which is usually more of the house than the fire.
What we find changes with the address. Kannapolis has a median build year of 1989, with Forest Park and Jackson Park at the older end and Kellswater Bridge at the newer. NFPA puts kitchen-origin fires at 30 percent in one- and two-family homes against 68 percent in multifamily. In a town that is 77 percent detached, more fires start away from the cooktop. The 884 manufactured homes here read differently again, because the materials and the air volume change what can be cleaned.

Our reviews
Real reviews from real jobs, in the reviewer's own words, including homeowners in Pineville and Matthews.
Restoration work is a stressful thing to hire for, so see what people say about how fast we answered, and how the job actually went.
Came in 30min for a freak accident with a water cooler. Explained everything and put my mind at ease. Very informative, 10/10.
When we noticed a water stain on the ceiling, we called Dan and he was at our house within the hour. He made an assessment and had his team out same day. They were polite, professional, and efficient. Highly recommend!!
247 Aquadry recently helped with the water damage at my home in Pineville after a refrigerator leak caused damage to our floors and cabinets. They were responsive, professional, and quickly diagnosed and remediated the water damage with minimal impact to the surrounding areas.
What can I say about Dan and his team at 24/7 AquaDry other than they are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! From our very first call, as water was pouring between our first and second levels in our home, Dan and his team were responsive, compassionate, supportive, knowledgeable, and effective.
Dan and his team were responsive, timely, friendly, and resourceful. They arrived when they said they would, provided a bid when they said they would, and completed the job within their estimated timeframe. Their professionalism and care stand out. I felt well taken care of throughout the process. I highly recommend 24/7 AquaDry!
Dan was extremely helpful throughout the whole process helping us with water damage concerns at our property in Matthews. He was very knowledgeable, easy to work with, and took the time to explain everything clearly instead of just trying to rush through the job. You can tell he genuinely cares about helping people and doing things the right way.
Water damage as well as fire? Suppression water is part of most fire losses, and it is the same crew. Water damage restoration in Kannapolis.

Questions
Fire damage restoration in Kannapolis: common questions
What is your process for fire damage restoration in Kannapolis?
Five steps, in the same order every time. We board up the building and work out what burned. Then we remove what cannot be saved, clean the soot and odor and rebuild. The walk-through is the step that changes most here. A stock with a median year of 1989 runs from older housing to 2000s subdivisions, and the 884 manufactured homes are a third case again.
How much does fire damage restoration cost in Kannapolis?
It depends on how far the smoke went, how much has to come out and what the rebuild involves. That is why the estimate is free. We come out, walk the property with you and price the work before you decide. A manufactured home prices differently from a site-built house, so the walk-through settles that first. Most fire jobs are paid by the homeowner's insurance, and we write our estimates in Xactimate, the same software adjusters use.
Does smoke damage spread beyond the burned room?
Yes, and it is the part most often left out of a claim. Smoke follows air into wall cavities, ceiling voids and ducting, so rooms away from the fire still hold odor and residue. If the HVAC was running, it carried soot through the whole house. In a town that is 77 percent detached those air paths are fairly predictable, so they can be checked.
Will my insurance cover fire and smoke damage?
Standard homeowner policies generally cover sudden and accidental damage, and a fire is the clearest example there is. What your policy actually pays is decided by your carrier and their adjuster, never by us. What we control is the file they decide on. We photograph what burned, how far the smoke travelled and what the suppression water reached. All of it is recorded before anything is moved.
