Last Updated: June 2026
Nature of Service
callwaterdamage911.com is a free referral and lead generation service that connects homeowners and property owners with independent, licensed water damage restoration contractors in Southern California. Call Water Damage 911 does not perform water damage restoration services directly. All restoration work is performed by independent third-party contractors who are not employees, agents, or affiliates of Call Water Damage 911.
No Warranty
Call Water Damage 911 does not warrant, guarantee, or make any representations regarding the quality, reliability, timeliness, suitability, or any other aspect of the services provided by contractors connected through our platform. All contractor representations regarding licensing, insurance, and certifications are the sole responsibility of those contractors.
Verify Before You Hire
It is the homeowner’s sole responsibility to verify that any contractor holds the appropriate California contractor’s license for the scope of work to be performed. You can verify contractor licenses at CSLB.ca.gov. Always confirm the contractor carries general liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage before work begins.
Emergency Response Availability
Same-day, emergency, and 24/7 response availability is subject to contractor participation, technician availability, geographic location, current demand, and other factors beyond our control. Availability is not guaranteed and may vary significantly by market and time of day.

FTC Disclosure — Referral Compensation
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s guidelines concerning the use of endorsements and testimonials in advertising (16 CFR Part 255), callwaterdamage911.com discloses that this website participates in a referral compensation arrangement.

This compensation does not influence the information, recommendations, or editorial content provided on this website. We always recommend services based on their merit and the needs of the homeowner, not on the compensation received.
Not a Contractor — Referral Service Only
callwaterdamage911.com is strictly a referral and information platform. We do not hold a California Contractor’s License, we do not employ restoration technicians, and we do not perform water damage restoration work of any kind. All restoration services are performed by independent, licensed, third-party contractors. Any agreements, contracts, warranties, or guarantees for restoration services are made solely between the homeowner and the contractor — not with callwaterdamage911.com.
