Major Restoration provides Water Damage Restoration for homeowners across Dauphin, PA, a small borough in Dauphin County situated along the Susquehanna River just north of Harrisburg. Its riverside location and rolling terrain make flooding and water intrusion a real and recurring concern for local property owners.
We work throughout Dauphin Borough, along Peters Mountain Road, and near the Stony Creek area. Homes close to the river corridor and low-lying lots near Route 322 are particularly prone to water infiltration during heavy rain events, and we tailor our response to the conditions these properties face.
Our process begins with a thorough moisture assessment using thermal imaging and moisture meters. We then extract standing water, deploy industrial drying equipment, and monitor daily until the structure reaches safe humidity levels. Clear communication and detailed documentation keep you informed at every stage.
Beyond water damage, our team also handles Fire and Smoke Restoration, Mold Remediation, Sewage Cleanup, Flood Damage Restoration, and Storm Damage Repair. Having one trusted contractor for multiple damage types means faster coordination and less stress for you.

Dauphin properties face a range of damage risks tied to local weather, aging infrastructure, and the proximity to the Susquehanna River. Knowing the warning signs can help you act before damage worsens.
Burst pipes, failed supply lines, and storm-driven rain are among the most common causes of water damage in Dauphin homes. Older housing stock in the borough often has aging plumbing that becomes brittle during winter temperature swings. Warning signs include water stains on ceilings, warped flooring, and musty odors in lower levels. Our team extracts standing water, dries affected materials, and repairs or replaces compromised structural components.
House fires in Dauphin often leave behind more than charred materials. Smoke infiltrates wall cavities, HVAC systems, and soft materials throughout the home, creating persistent odors and air quality concerns long after the flames are out. Soot residue is chemically active and can continue to damage surfaces if not treated quickly. Our technicians use specialized equipment to neutralize odors, clean soot deposits, and restore affected areas fully.
The humid summers and wet springs common to the Susquehanna Valley create ideal conditions for mold growth in Dauphin basements and crawl spaces. Mold can develop within 48 hours of a moisture event and often grows behind walls and under flooring before it becomes visible. Musty odors, allergy symptoms, and discolored drywall are key warning signs. We locate the moisture source, contain the affected zone, and perform complete mold remediation with antimicrobial treatment.
Dauphin sits in a region that sees significant storm activity, with nor’easters and summer thunderstorms capable of driving wind-borne debris into roofing and siding. Damaged roofing materials allow water to penetrate attic spaces and wall assemblies, often going undetected until staining or rot becomes visible inside. Storm-damaged windows create immediate water intrusion points that can soak insulation and framing fast. Our team provides emergency board-up and tarping, followed by complete structural repairs to restore your home’s envelope.
Our reputation is built on the trust and satisfaction of the families and businesses we’ve served throughout the region. Read what our clients have to say about their experience working with our certified restoration team.

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!Posted on GoogleBrittany KohlerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
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!Posted on GoogleChrissy SpottsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
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.Posted on GoogleJack SchatzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
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.

Get straightforward answers to the questions Dauphin homeowners ask most about water damage restoration, costs, timelines, and permits.
Water damage restoration in Dauphin typically ranges from $1,500 to $8,000 or more depending on the extent of the damage, the materials affected, and how long the water was present. Larger losses involving finished basements or multiple rooms will fall toward the higher end of that range. Most homeowners insurance policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, and Major Restoration works directly with your insurer to maximize your claim.
The drying phase alone typically takes three to five days for a standard water loss in a Dauphin home, assuming the moisture source has been stopped. Full restoration including repairs, drywall replacement, and flooring can take one to three weeks depending on the scope of damage. Major Restoration provides a detailed timeline after the initial assessment so you know what to expect at every stage.
Minor remediation and drying work generally do not require permits in Dauphin Borough. However, if restoration involves structural repairs, electrical work, or significant reconstruction, permits from Dauphin Borough or Dauphin County may be required. Major Restoration handles permit coordination as needed and ensures all repair work meets local building codes before the project is closed out.
Most standard homeowner’s insurance policies in Dauphin cover sudden and accidental water damage such as burst pipes or appliance failures, but typically exclude damage from flooding or gradual leaks. Major Restoration documents all damage thoroughly and communicates directly with your adjuster to support your claim. We recommend calling your insurer as soon as the damage is discovered to start the process quickly.
