Cost per square foot
Water damage restoration cost per square foot in Yonkers
Restoration companies price by the square foot because the bill follows the wet area. A small leak in one room costs far less than a flooded basement. In the US the unit is the square foot, not the square meter. The rates below are 2026 published national averages, and they depend on the water type — clean water is cheapest to dry, black water costs the most because it needs disinfection.
Clean water — Category 1
Clean supply-line water
Grey water — Category 2
Slightly contaminated water from appliances and sinks
Black water — Category 3
Sewage or flood water — needs disinfection and material removal
What that means for a typical basement
A typical basement is about 1,000 square feet. Most basements run 500 to 1,500 square feet. Multiply the rate by the wet area — and most basement flooding cleanup jobs in Yonkers land in this range:
Clean water
$3,500
1,000 sq ft × $3.50
Grey water
$5,250
1,000 sq ft × $5.25
Black water
$7,500
1,000 sq ft × $7.50
These are typical starting rates based on published national averages — not a quote. The confirmed price comes only on the call or at inspection time.
What else can add to the bill
The per-square-foot rate covers extraction and drying. These are the extras that can apply on top of it. The "from $1,385" starting price does not include them — the final number depends on which ones your job needs.
Mold removal — from $1,200
Mold can start on wet drywall in 24 to 48 hours. If it has started, removal is a separate job with its own containment and disposal.
Pipe repair — from $150 per linear foot
Fixing the burst line itself. A short copper splice costs less than a long reroute.
Plumber — from $45 per hour
The pipe work is billed by the hour. Complex reroutes and code upgrades take longer.
Emergency call-out — from $100 extra
Night, weekend, or holiday dispatch. Emergency calls still get the same crew and the same equipment as daytime jobs.
Pipe thawing — from $50
For a frozen line that has not split yet. Thawing early can prevent the burst — and the bigger bill.
Rebuild — runs into the thousands
Drywall, flooring, and paint that cannot be dried have to be replaced. This is usually the biggest extra on a job, and it depends on how much material was soaked.
Disinfection
Black water and sewage jobs need disinfection and contaminated-material removal before drying can start. Clean-water jobs do not.
Pack-out and contents cleaning
Furniture and belongings are moved out, cleaned, and stored while the space dries. Priced by the amount of contents, not the room.

What affects the cost
Two jobs with the same burst pipe can cost very different amounts. These six factors decide where your job lands.
Area size
More wet square feet means more extraction, more equipment, and a longer dry-out. A flooded basement costs more than one wet room — that is the whole reason the price is per square foot.
Water type
Clean water dries fastest. Grey water needs more cleaning. Black water needs disinfection and material removal, which is why it carries the highest per-square-foot rate.
How long the water sat
Water that sat for hours soaks deeper into drywall and framing, and mold risk climbs after 24 to 48 hours. An attic pipe burst found late can soak two floors before anyone notices.
Sewage or black water
Contaminated water changes the whole job: protective gear, disinfection, and disposal of soaked materials. It is the most expensive category for a reason.
Structural damage
Drywall, flooring, insulation, and framing that cannot be dried must be replaced. That is where rebuild costs come in, and they grow with every room the water reached.
Emergency timing
A 2 a.m. call costs more than a weekday appointment. But waiting until morning usually costs more in damage — water does not stop spreading while you sleep. A commercial cleanup after hours follows the same logic: every hour closed costs more than the call-out.

Burst pipe restoration cost questions
The questions we hear most about price, answered straight.
Why is the price per square foot instead of per job?

What does the "from $1,385" price cover?
Water extraction and structural drying for a typical residential burst pipe job, plus the pipe repair scope. It does not include rebuild — drywall, flooring, and paint — or mold removal. Those are priced once we see the damage.
