On-site fast, day or night. We extract, dry, and rebuild, and we handle your insurance claim from first call to final invoice. IICRC-certified crews, twenty-five years on Utah homes across the Salt Lake Valley.
Holladay incorporated as a city in 1999 after years as unincorporated Salt Lake County, but the neighborhoods here are older than the city itself. The dominant housing stock runs from the 1950s through the 1980s, built when large lots, mature trees, and extensive landscaping were standard for east bench living. That history is part of what makes Holladay a place people want to live. It's also part of what drives the water damage patterns we see here: aging plumbing in homes that have never had a full system update, irrigation infrastructure that's decades old, and basement spaces finished by owners who are long gone.
Quality Restoration has been serving the Holladay area since 2001. We can reach most Holladay addresses in approximately 35 minutes from our Springville headquarters. We run emergency response 24 hours a day, every day of the year. When an aging supply line gives out or an irrigation valve fails against a foundation, you need a crew that arrives fast and knows what they're doing.
We are locally owned and operated by Shelton Bischof and Nate Brinkerhoff, IICRC certified, and experienced with the specific construction characteristics of Holladay's housing stock. Call us at (801) 922-9130 any time.
The salt lake valley geography and Holladay's housing mix create a specific set of water damage risks. Here is what we respond to most.
Holladay's oldest homes, those built in the 1950s and early 1960s, were often constructed with galvanized steel supply pipe. That material corrodes from the inside out over 50 or 60 years, eventually leading to restricted flow, pinhole leaks, and eventual failure. Even in homes where galvanized has been partially replaced, the remaining original sections can be the weak point. Supply lines at toilets, sinks, and appliances in 1960s and 1970s homes throughout Holladay are common failure points. A single failed braided supply line can release 40 or more gallons per hour before it's noticed. These are among the most frequent water damage calls we receive from Holladay.
Large lots with mature trees are a hallmark of Holladay neighborhoods, and maintaining them requires irrigation systems. Most of those systems were installed in the 1980s or 1990s, and many have never been fully replaced. Lateral lines running along foundations, valve manifolds buried near the house, and aging heads that freeze and crack over winter are all failure points. A lateral line that splits along a foundation can push water into a crawl space or basement steadily over days, especially if the system runs on a timer and no one is watching the yard closely. The damage this kind of slow intrusion causes is often worse than a sudden failure because it goes undetected longer.
Many Holladay homes had basements finished over the decades by successive owners, often without permits and without the waterproofing measures that would have been required under code. Wood framing set directly on a concrete slab with no vapor barrier, drywall without moisture-resistant facing, and carpet over concrete are all common in mid-century finished basements. When moisture enters from any source, whether an irrigation failure, a plumbing event above, or natural seasonal seepage, these materials absorb it quickly and are slow to dry. Mold risk in these spaces is elevated compared to newer construction.
The lower east bench of Holladay includes areas near Big Cottonwood Creek. Homes in these neighborhoods can see elevated soil moisture and some seepage risk during spring runoff periods and after significant summer storms. Creek proximity is not a constant risk, but in high-precipitation years the water table in lower-lying Holladay areas rises enough to affect below-grade spaces. If your home is in the Murray Holladay corridor or in neighborhoods close to the creek, this is a seasonal factor to monitor.
Dishwasher supply lines, refrigerator ice maker connections, and washing machine hoses in Holladay's older homes are frequently original or close to it. Rubber hoses degrade over time, and plastic supply fittings from 1980s dishwasher installations can crack or pull loose at the valve. A washing machine hose failure during a full cycle can push water across a laundry room floor, under the wall, and into adjacent rooms or the space below before the cycle finishes. We handle multiple appliance-related water damage calls from Holladay each year.
Holladay homes with basement utility rooms often have tank water heaters that have not been replaced since the last major renovation, which in some cases was decades ago. Tank water heaters have a rated life of roughly 8 to 12 years. When they rust through at the tank seam or fail at the inlet connection, the result is standing water in a utility room and, often, water spreading to adjacent finished basement space. Catching this type of failure fast is important. A water heater failure in the morning before anyone leaves for work can sit for eight or nine hours before it's discovered.
Holladay is a community that takes care of its properties. Homeowners here have invested in their homes, and when water damage happens they want it handled right. Quality Restoration has been doing this work in Utah since 2001, and we've worked in enough mid-century Holladay homes to know their particular characteristics: original plumbing, basement finishing from the 1970s and 1980s, mature landscaping that includes irrigation infrastructure running close to foundations. Our IICRC-certified technicians use thermal imaging and moisture meters to find water that has moved beyond the visible surface, which in an older home can be significant.
We work with homeowners through every part of the insurance claim: documentation, adjuster communication, and keeping you informed as the work progresses. Shelton and Nate run Quality Restoration on the principle that restoration means returning your home to the condition it was in before the loss, not just making it look dry on the surface. That means we don't close a job until the moisture data supports it. Call (801) 922-9130 any time you need us.
You call (801) 922-9130 and reach a real person. No voicemail, no call centers. We dispatch immediately with an under-60-minute target for Holladay.
We are available 24/7 and typically on-site in Holladay within the hour. Our technicians inspect the affected areas, identify the source, and use thermal imaging and moisture meters to map how far the water has spread before any work begins.
Commercial-grade pumps and truck-mounted extractors remove standing water from floors, carpets, and walls immediately. The faster water is removed, the less structural damage your home sustains.
Industrial air movers and LGR dehumidifiers run continuously for 3-5 days. We monitor moisture readings daily until every surface hits IICRC S500 drying standard. Not "looks dry," dry to spec.
EPA-registered antimicrobials are applied to all affected surfaces. Unsalvageable drywall, flooring, and insulation are removed safely. Everything is documented for your insurance claim from day one.
We rebuild, drywall, flooring, baseboards, cabinetry, trim, and paint, back to pre-loss condition. The same crew that started the job finishes it. One point of contact, no handoffs.
We provide detailed records, photos, and damage reports, and work directly with your adjuster. We handle the paperwork and the calls. Most Holladay homeowners pay only their deductible.
Whether you're dealing with a burst supply line, a water heater failure, or water entering through your basement, the first steps matter. Here's what to do while our crew is en route.
Find the water source and stop it. The main shutoff valve is typically near the water meter or where the main supply enters the house. For an irrigation failure, shut off the irrigation controller and close the valve to the affected zone.
Turn off power to affected areas at the breaker panel before walking into water near electrical outlets, appliances, or panels.
Remove furniture and items from the wet area if it's safe to do so. Every minute furniture sits in water, it absorbs more and becomes a secondary source of moisture during drying.
Do not run household fans. Moving air over wet materials before a professional assessment can push moisture into wall cavities and extend the affected area.
Document everything with photos or video. Capture standing water, waterlines on walls and baseboards, and any wet materials. Do this before moving anything if possible.
Call Quality Restoration at (801) 922-9130. We're available 24 hours a day, every day.
Report the claim to your insurance company after contacting us.
A restoration claim is half cleanup, half paperwork. We have handled both for twenty-five years, so you can focus on your family while we handle the process for your Holladay home.
Water damage from a sudden and accidental event, a burst supply line, a water heater failure, an appliance malfunction, is generally covered under standard homeowner's policies. The documentation we provide, thermal imaging reports, moisture logs, complete photo records, and a written scope, is exactly what Holladay adjusters and carriers need to process a claim efficiently.
We work directly with your adjuster from the first call, document the cause and full extent of the damage, and bill your carrier directly. Most Holladay homeowners pay only their deductible. Call (801) 922-9130 for 24/7 emergency response in Holladay.
Full-service restoration for Holladay homeowners: mold, fire and smoke, and sewage cleanup.
Holladay's older finished basements create conditions where mold can develop without obvious signs on the surface. If a water event in a basement space was not dried professionally, or if an irrigation failure introduced moisture slowly over days, mold may be present behind finished wall materials well before it's visible. Quality Restoration provides professional mold assessment and remediation for Holladay homes, including containment, removal, air treatment, and post-remediation testing. If you're seeing musty odors in a below-grade space or buying a home in Holladay and want a mold inspection, call (801) 922-9130.
Older Holladay homes often have construction features that complicate fire and smoke restoration: plaster walls, hardwood floors, and HVAC systems that have distributed smoke through multiple zones. Quality Restoration handles fire and smoke damage restoration in Holladay from initial securing and emergency response through full structural and content cleaning, odor neutralization, and coordination of reconstruction. We document the full scope for your insurance company and work through the claim process with you from start to finish.
Sewage backups require a completely different response than clean water events. Contaminated water is a health hazard that demands professional extraction, decontamination, and restoration with proper containment and EPA-registered disinfectants. Do not attempt to clean a sewage event yourself. Call us immediately at (801) 922-9130 and we will handle it safely, start to finish.

A pipe let go while we were out and flooded into the main floor. Quality Restoration was at the house fast, found moisture we could not see, and dried it to spec. They handled the entire insurance claim, we just paid our deductible.
Real person answered when I called, a crew showed up quickly, and a few days later you could not tell anything had happened. Best money our insurance ever spent.
