Common Problems We Fix In Elizabethtown, PA

Elizabethtown homeowners know how quickly an unexpected event can put a property at risk, from an old pipe giving way to a storm pushing water indoors.

With a mix of heritage homes and newer builds, challenges vary. Below are some of the most common issues we address to help people get back to normal safely.

Water Damage from Leaking Roofs or Burst Pipes

Water issues are common in older properties, and even a small roof leak or hidden pipe burst can leave moisture trapped behind walls or under floors. If it isn’t addressed quickly, it can lead to mold, weakened materials, and damaged belongings.

Our team dries affected areas, identifies the source, and completes professional water damage restoration to help prevent further damage while salvaging what we can and getting the space back to normal.

Fire and Smoke Residue Cleanup

After a fire, even a small one, smoke residue and odors can linger and often require professional smoke damage cleanup to remove them fully. This often happens after kitchen mishaps, electrical problems, or outdoor fires that spread, and the smoke can settle into fabrics, air ducts, and wall surfaces.

We clean affected areas thoroughly, remove odor, and complete fire and smoke damage restoration to help you return to a clean, livable space faster.

Mold Growth in Basements and Crawlspaces

Older basements and crawlspaces can stay damp during humid summers, so we often recommend targeted moisture control solutions to reduce the conditions that allow mold to grow and spread behind walls, under flooring, or around HVAC components.

Mold can damage materials, create persistent odors, and affect indoor air quality if it isn’t handled properly. Our mold remediation team removes the mold and addresses the moisture source to help reduce the chance of repeat growth.

Specialty Restoration of Tubs, Fixtures, and Historic Features

In period homes and bungalows, features like bathtubs, decorative plasterwork, and antique fixtures can be damaged by everyday wear, minor flooding, or older DIY repairs that leave surfaces stained, chipped, or unstable.

Instead of replacing character pieces, we focus on restoration work and, when needed, whole home remodeling so the original look is preserved while surfaces return to safe, usable condition.

Our basement flooded due to a broken sewer pipe. Major did a wonderful job of clean-up. Anthony and Cam did an awesome job of putting our room back together the way it was before the flooding. I would highly recommend Major and Anthony and Cam!

We can’t say enough amazing things about Major Restoration Services! After an incredibly frustrating and disappointing experience with ServPro, Major Restorations came in and completely turned our situation around. From the very first phone call to the final walk-through, they were fair, transparent, and professional every step of the way. Duy was incredible—he came out right away to assess the water damage, had a detailed estimate to us the same day, and got the job started the very next morning. From there, the entire project was completed in less than a month! He even reviewed our outrageous invoice from ServPro and pointed out where they were clearly overcharging us. His honesty and industry knowledge were such a breath of fresh air. Tyler started tear-out and water remediation and was fantastic—thorough and clearly knew exactly what needed to be done. Jay and Cameron took care of the remodel and we couldn’t be happier with the quality of their work. They were friendly, respectful, and clearly cared about doing the job right. We truly hope we never need water damage services again, but if we do—or need any remodel work—Major Restoration Services will be our very first call. This is a company that genuinely cares about their clients and takes pride in doing the job right. They’ve earned our trust and our business for life!

I wanted to make sure I leave a review of the team at Major Restoration. I purchased my first home in May of 2024. Within days of moving in, I had a plumbing issue that needed immediate correction. I contacted my insurance company who has a national contract with another national restoration service. After the initial company came to my house, they remediated the sewage damage and I was told I would be contacted by the restoration team to complete the restoration. MONTHS went by with little to no response from the other company. After getting the run around for months and not having use of my first level and full bathroom, I had my fill of the nonsense. I reached out to Major Restoration, hoping beyond hope that the team there could help me. My initial call was exactly what I needed at the time - I was met with compassion and quick estimate set up. Duoy and Brian came out to see what was left after the other company refused to complete the work. They were extremely kind, compassionate and thorough, ensuring that the estimate they worked up for the insurance company would completely restore my first level and get me whole again. Within weeks, the team at Major Restoration begun the work of putting things back together for me. They worked with a plumbing sub-con, DeRose Plumbing, who were also very kind, respectful and understanding. Major didn't just restore my first level - they made the space BETTER than it was when I bought it. The work they did was NEXT LEVEL. My family room, bathroom and laundry room are the showpiece of my house now, thanks to Major! I can't recommend this team enough. They were thorough, professional, kind and respectful. Every single team member, from the estimate team to the restoration crew to the office staff, treated me with respect and kindness, and the restoration work was completed impeccably. My only regret is that I listened to my insurance company and allowed them to pull in a national company to address the issue. In the future, my first choice will be Major Restoration.

We had an air conditioner leak into the wall. Major came out and corrected the problem and installed a new floor as well. Everything about the job was well done. Would definately use them again. Highly recommend.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Elizabethtown homeowners and businesses often have questions about disaster response and specialty restoration, especially with older homes and frequent moisture concerns. Here are a few of the most common.

Costs vary based on the type and extent of damage. Many water or fire restoration projects fall in the $2,500–$10,000 range, while mold or specialty restoration can be lower for small jobs and higher when advanced containment, drying, or preservation is needed. Pricing is usually similar to nearby areas like Lancaster, Harrisburg, and York. We provide a clear, itemized estimate after an on-site inspection, and we can also give a reasonable ballpark over the phone.

Response time depends on conditions and workload, but we prioritize emergencies and aim to arrive as quickly as possible. The process usually starts with a safety check and a damage assessment, then moves into steps like water extraction, drying, debris removal, and temporary protection if needed. We document damage for insurance and explain the plan before repairs begin.

Yes. We can work directly with your insurer by documenting damage with photos and itemized estimates, and by communicating updates to your adjuster. This often reduces paperwork on your end and helps keep the claim process more organized and transparent.

We handle specialty projects beyond standard water and fire work, including bathtub refinishing, odor removal, document drying, and restoration support for delicate or sentimental items. Costs vary by item and technique, and many small jobs start at a few hundred dollars. We’ll assess what you have, explain options clearly, and provide an itemized estimate before work begins.
