Property damage is the worst kind of curveball: urgent, complicated, and time-consuming.

Your mind is immediately racing. How bad is this going to be?

You’re already wearing a lot of hats.

Day-to-day operations. Staff stuff. Financial stuff. Last-minute putting-out-fires stuff.

And that’s all before lunchtime.

So when a pipe bursts or hidden mold damage reveals itself in your organization’s property, finding the right partner to fix it isn’t just one more thing to manage – it’s also a tightrope walk of careful planning, strategic spending, and intentional consideration for the people you serve.

When you’re trying to thread that needle, you shouldn’t have to:

Sit on hold forever,

Get passed around to different technicians every time you need support,

Or wonder whether the recommended scope of work makes sense for the situation.

You deserve a cleanup and restoration partner you can actually rely on.

One local expert who knows you by name, understands your organization’s work, and puts the people you serve first.

Someone who answers the phone when you call and doesn’t leave you wondering what the next steps are.

A trusted provider who offers appropriate recommendations that actually make sense for your organization’s reality: the day-to-day logistics, the budget constraints, and the needs of your staff and beneficiaries.

Umpire provides cleanup and restoration services built for nonprofit realities.

We’re someone you can call 24/7 who will remember you by name – and offer the right level of care for your situation, your organization, and the people you serve. 

That means a practical game plan. Responsive support. And caring professionals you can depend on. Every time you call.

“Stephen was extremely reliable and communicative.”
"He approached things with a really down-to-earth mentality that was respectful of not only us, but the person residing in one of our homes. His calm, informative approach put not only me, but the person we were assisting at ease right out of the gate."

Stephen Simmons, Umpire Mitigation founder

Hi, I’m Stephen.

My father started a water damage restoration business in 1962.

That means when I was a kid, my weekends and summers were spent helping him on job sites.

I didn’t just learn about water damage restoration. I learned what it meant to truly help people.

That’s why at Umpire, we do things differently. From the first phone call until the project is complete, our top priority is you.

"He gave us frank and objective expert advice not only on the things he and his company could help with, but also with respect to the things for which a more specialized company in his mind would be a better choice. He really cares about his customers."
