What to do while the water is still moving

2

Protect what you can

Lift furniture legs onto blocks, move rugs and electronics to dry rooms, and leave soaked carpet where it lies.

3

Photograph the damage

Take wide and close photos of every wet surface and damaged item before anything is moved or thrown out.

4

Call before cleaning up

Call a restoration crew before pulling out drywall or flooring, so moisture readings can be taken first.

Why Kenner calls Marrero Water Damage Restoration

A dry-out crew that works to a measured standard

Kenner buildings sit on low ground that drains by pump, so wet structures need fast extraction and drying that is measured, not guessed.

Rapid local response

Crews take Kenner calls around the clock, 24/7, and start extraction and moisture mapping as soon as they reach the property.

IICRC S500 drying standard

Equipment is placed from measured readings, and the readings are logged daily until drywall, framing and flooring reach dry standards.

Claim-ready documentation

Photos, moisture logs and equipment records are kept together, so an adjuster can see what was wet and why each step happened.

Local water know-how

Crews know that rain here is pumped out rather than drained away, and that heavy storms can load drains and push water back in.

How the dry-out works

Water damage dried to the IICRC S500 standard

The IICRC S500 sets how wet buildings are dried. Crews map moisture, extract standing water, place air movers and dehumidifiers by the readings, and retest daily. Equipment comes out only when materials reach their dry targets, and each reading goes into the claim file.

Three water categories

All water damage categories covered in Kenner, LA

Category 1

Clean water

Water from a supply pipe, a tank or rain through a roof starts clean, and fast drying keeps it from turning into something worse.

Burst pipe water damage
Category 2

Gray water

Dishwasher, washer and tub overflow water carries soap and soil, so it is removed and the wet materials are treated promptly.

Appliance leak water damage
Category 3

Black water

Sewage, rising flood water and long-standing wet material need containment and protective gear, never a mop and bucket.

Typical cost ranges

What does water damage restoration cost in Kenner, LA?

Cost depends on how many rooms are wet, how long the water sat and whether it was clean, gray or black. Most jobs fall into one of the three ranges below.

Contained clean-water loss

$1,300 to $6,500
  • Extraction and moisture map
  • Baseboards pulled and dried
  • Daily moisture readings

Several rooms and wet wall bottoms

$6,500 to $15,000
  • Flooring lifted
  • Drywall cut where wet
  • Containment set up

Large or contaminated loss

$15,000 to $35,000+
  • Category 3 removal
  • Material removal and disposal
  • Extended drying and monitoring

Prices vary with each building, so use the cost calculator for a rough figure and expect a firm scope after moisture readings.

Insurance paperwork

Documentation for your insurance claim

A claim goes smoother when the loss is recorded before cleanup changes it. Crews keep the evidence an adjuster usually asks for.

  • Dated photos and video of every wet room and item
  • Moisture readings with the location of each reading
  • Equipment placement and daily run records
  • Itemized list of materials removed and why
  • Notes on the water source and when it was found

Steps you can take yourself

Keep damaged items until the adjuster has seen them, save receipts for emergency repairs, and write down dates and times as the situation changes.

Homeowner and business policies do not cover flood, which needs its own policy with a 30-day waiting period, so ask your own insurer what applies to your loss.

Local risk profile

What drives water damage in Kenner

The city says most of Kenner lies at or below sea level and relies on pumps to move rain out, so heavy storms, tidal surge and failing pipes all put water indoors.

Pumped drainage

Low, flat ground has little gravity drainage, so downpours depend on pumps and can pool in streets.

Hurricane season

Late summer brings hurricanes and tidal surge, and the city notes flooding can happen inside and outside the levee system.

Subsiding ground

The city calls the land prone to subsidence, so a hidden pipe leak is worth checking early when floors turn damp.

Water main breaks

Jefferson Parish crews repaired main breaks on Vintage Drive and Williams Boulevard, and the Vintage break left standing water near Chateau Boulevard.

Humid air

Humid Louisiana air slows evaporation, so wet drywall and framing stay damp longer unless equipment pulls the moisture out.

June 2026

Tropical Storm Arthur dropped nearly 7 inches of rain in under two hours, flooded streets across Kenner and left the mayor saying the drainage system was overwhelmed.

Questions

Kenner water damage questions answered

Water in your home right now?

Call Marrero Water Damage Restoration and describe what is wet, and a crew will start planning the extraction and drying.

(888) 417-5665 Talk to a Kenner crew
How soon should water damage be dealt with in Kenner?

Quickly. Water wicks into drywall, insulation and subfloor, and mold can start to grow in a 24 to 48 hour window, so extraction and drying should begin as early as possible.

What should a homeowner do first when a pipe bursts?

Shut the main valve, switch off power to wet areas if it is safe, and photograph the damage. Then call a restoration crew so extraction can start while the plumber repairs the pipe.

Does homeowner insurance cover flooding in Kenner?

Not usually. Homeowner and business policies do not cover flood, which needs a separate policy. FEMA data ranks Kenner in the top 10 in Louisiana for flood policy count, so flood coverage is common here.

Do crews clean up sewage backups?

Yes. Sewage counts as Category 3 water, so crews seal off the area, remove soaked carpet, pad and drywall, and disinfect what remains while wearing protective gear. See sewage backup cleanup.

What does flash flood cleanup involve after a storm like Arthur?

Street water is treated as contaminated. Crews pump out the water, remove wet flooring and the lower part of the drywall, treat the surfaces, and dry the structure to the IICRC S500 standard.

Can wet carpet be saved?

Carpet that got clean water and is extracted promptly can often be dried in place. Carpet and pad that sat in gray or black water are removed and replaced.

Does Marrero Water Damage Restoration handle commercial losses?

Yes. Shops, offices and warehouses near Williams Boulevard, the airport and other commercial areas get phased drying that keeps part of the building open, plus moisture logs for the owner and the insurer.

How long does structural drying take?

Timing is set by readings, not the calendar. Thick framing, hardwood and concrete take longer, and humid Louisiana air slows evaporation, so structural drying equipment stays until each material reaches its dry target.

Who repairs a leaking pipe or water heater?

A plumber does. Kenner says plumbing work must be done by someone holding a current State Plumbing License, while the restoration crew extracts the water and dries the structure.

Which Kenner areas does the crew serve?

Calls come from Rivertown, Laketown, the Chateau Estates areas, Woodlake, Seton Park and the rest of ZIP codes 70062 and 70065, along Williams Boulevard and Airline Drive.
