For 30 years, we've been helping homes and businesses clean up after a disaster in Virginia, Maryland, and DC.
I had a great experience with Umpire. Of the 2 "BIG Brand Names" one showed up with strange prices and the other did not show. Umpire was suggested by the insurance company. They gave us a great estimate, ...quickly...and were ready to work right away. The quality was excellent, on time and on budget.
Umpire Mitigation was there for us when our basement flooded. They came out the same day, were professional, compassionate, and knowledgeable. They made things very easy for us and they did great work. We highly recommend!
Umpire came highly recommended and we’ve worked with Stephen Simmons and his team three times this year. On each occasion, it was an absolute pleasure working with this company and we would happily recommend them to anyone looking for flooding remediation support!
Fantastic experience. Umpire Mitigation answered my call after business hours, spent significant time on the phone with me to assess my issue and define a path forward. Umpire then came out promptly to assess what was going on and provide a detailed opinion on next steps. Supremely customer focused. I highly, highly recommend Umpire Mitigation.

We care about your home just as much as you do. To keep service standards high, all our teams are:
Homeowner's insurance normally covers damage that is sudden and accidental. Examples are water heater ruptures, washer hose leak, pipe bursts, toilet overflows. Flooding from heavy rains, rivers, sewer backups is normally not covered by standard homeowners policies. To confirm coverage, always ask your insurance agent. Whether insurance is paying or not, our flat pricing is 44% less than competitors.
No, we normally come out sooner than later to get everything dry and prevent more damage like mold growth. If it ends up being a covered loss we can send everything to your insurance for you. Covered loss or not, we are happy to quote pricing anytime you ask.
Our flat pricing covers the following services needed to properly dry the average water damage: photo document before & after, moisture readings before & after, move contents as needed, extract water, save carpet or remove carpet, remove padding, remove tackless, remove baseboard, remove drywall & insulation under 100 square feet, haul debris outside and take away, clean floor, apply anti-microbial, place & pickup fans and dehumidifiers, and customer satisfaction.
Our teams use experience, thermal cameras, and moisture meters to find all hidden moisture.
If the team is allowed to do everything they recommend, 1-3 days is the dry time.
We can do as much as you want or as little. If you have a contractor you love and just want us to dry the water damage, that's what we will do. If you would like us to do the rebuild, we can help coordinate everything. It's your choice.
Yes. We do residential homes, commercial offices, and retail stores. If it's wet we dry it.
