CAMCO Construction & Restoration provides fast, professional flood damage restoration for homeowners throughout Hendersonville and the surrounding Sumner County area.
Our crews handle the full scope of recovery, from emergency water extraction and structural drying to demolition of damaged materials and complete reconstruction.

What’s Included in Our Flood Damage Restoration Services
When you call CAMCO, you get a full-service response, not just a crew with a shop vac. We handle every phase of the recovery process so you are not coordinating between multiple contractors while your home is still wet.
Emergency Water Extraction and Removal
We deploy truck-mounted and portable extraction units to remove standing water from your floors, carpets, and crawl spaces quickly. In Hendersonville homes with finished basements or low-lying crawl spaces, thorough extraction is critical before drying can begin. Getting the bulk water out fast limits how far moisture migrates into your subfloor and wall framing.
Structural Drying and Dehumidification
After extraction, we set up industrial air movers and commercial dehumidifiers to dry the structure from the inside out. Our technicians use moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras to monitor drying progress inside walls and under flooring, not just at the surface. We track readings daily and adjust equipment placement until every affected material reaches safe moisture levels.
Demolition, Mold Prevention, and Reconstruction
Flood-damaged drywall, insulation, and flooring often cannot be saved and need to be removed to prevent mold from taking hold. CAMCO handles controlled demolition, applies antimicrobial treatments, and rebuilds affected areas back to their original condition. Our in-house reconstruction team means you work with one company through the entire process, from demo to the finished wall. Contact us to schedule a damage assessment and get the recovery started.
Signs You Need Professional Flood Damage Restoration
Not every flood event looks like a dramatic wall of water. Hendersonville homeowners often deal with slow-moving water intrusion that causes just as much damage over time. Here are the most common situations that call for professional help.
Flooding from Old Hickory Lake or Local Creek Overflow
Homes near Old Hickory Lake, Drakes Creek, and the Indian Lake area have experienced significant flooding during periods of heavy rainfall and dam releases. When lake or creek water enters a home, it carries silt, bacteria, and contaminants that make cleanup far more involved than a standard water damage call. This type of Category 3 water requires specialized handling, proper containment, and full sanitization before the structure can be rebuilt.
Stormwater Intrusion in Older Hendersonville Homes
Many homes in established Hendersonville neighborhoods like Sanders Ferry and Walton Ferry Road were built in the 1970s and 1980s with crawl space foundations that are more vulnerable to groundwater intrusion during heavy rain. When stormwater pushes up through a crawl space or seeps through a foundation wall, moisture can migrate into the subfloor and lower walls before the homeowner even notices. By the time you see staining or smell musty air, the damage is already spreading. Our mold remediation team can assess and treat any secondary mold growth discovered during the restoration process.
Appliance or Plumbing Failures During Flash Storms
Power outages during Hendersonville thunderstorms can knock out sump pumps at exactly the wrong time, allowing water to fill basements and lower-level rooms fast. A failed water heater, burst supply line, or overflowing washer during a storm can compound the problem quickly. These events may be covered under your standard homeowners insurance policy, and CAMCO can help document the loss and assist with the claims process. Acting quickly when you notice water intrusion is the best way to keep repair costs manageable.
Our Flood Damage Restoration Process for Hendersonville Homes
Schedule Your Emergency Assessment
Call CAMCO any time and we will get a certified technician to your Hendersonville property as fast as possible. Our team gathers details about the flooding source, affected rooms, and any safety concerns before arrival. We treat every flood call as time-sensitive because the longer water sits, the more damage accumulates.
Inspect and Document All Affected Areas
Our technicians perform a full property inspection using moisture meters, hygrometers, and thermal imaging cameras to find water that has migrated beyond the visible damage zone. We document all findings with photos and written reports, which is essential for insurance claims. This step gives us a complete picture of what needs to be extracted, dried, demolished, and rebuilt.
Execute Water Removal, Drying, and Remediation
We extract standing water, set up drying equipment throughout affected areas, and apply antimicrobial treatments where needed to prevent mold growth. For Hendersonville properties with crawl spaces or finished lower levels, we give special attention to areas that trap moisture and are slow to dry naturally. Our crews monitor the drying process daily and adjust equipment until the structure meets industry drying standards. We also coordinate with our water damage restoration team and, when needed, our storm damage restoration specialists for complex multi-system repairs.
Complete Final Inspection and Restoration Sign-Off
Before we close out any flood damage restoration project in Hendersonville, we conduct a final moisture verification walkthrough using calibrated equipment to confirm all readings are within normal range. We review all completed work with the homeowner and provide documentation of the drying logs and completed repairs for insurance purposes. If reconstruction was part of the scope, we walk through every finished area to make sure the work meets your expectations and our quality standards. Our reconstruction services team is involved from demo through final finishes so nothing falls through the cracks.
