24/7 EMERGENCY SERVICE
24/7 EMERGENCY SERVICE
By Ben Raabe, CEO — Licensed Contractor | 25+ Years Experience
Bella Contracting Services restores water damage for commercial and industrial properties across Connecticut, handling everything from burst pipes and sewage backups to storm flooding and roof leaks. Crews extract standing water, dry and dehumidify the structure, sanitize the affected areas, and rebuild what the damage destroyed.
Left standing, water spreads quickly, soaking further into flooring, drywall, and structural framing with every hour that passes, and it turns dangerous fast in any room with live electrical systems. A fast, qualified response limits both how far the damage spreads and how much of the property has to be rebuilt.
Bella is fully insured, and CEO Ben Raabe brings more than 25 years of experience in commercial and industrial demolition, construction, and contracting. Bella’s Connecticut office is based in Stamford, serving Fairfield County and the greater New Haven area.

Few things cause as much destruction in a building as water damage. When your furniture, rugs, and clothes are soaked with water, it’s a race against the clock to remove excess moisture and minimize any damage.
That’s why Bella Contracting offers water damage restoration services. We understand the time-sensitive nature of this issue, and we work hard to deliver fast and comprehensive solutions. Our team uses a thorough restoration process to repair the leak, remove the liquid, and repair the water damage.
To remove the water and prevent further damage, you need water damage restoration services.
Bella Contracting Services is based in Stamford, Connecticut, and restores water damage for commercial and industrial properties throughout Fairfield County (including Norwalk, Bridgeport, Danbury, Fairfield, Greenwich, Darien, Milford, Weston, and Westport) and the greater New Haven area. Because Bella also performs demolition and general contracting work, it can repair structural damage the water leaves behind, not just remove the water itself.
Standing water spreads fast regardless of which town it happens in, and response speed determines how much of a building can be saved. Bella’s Connecticut crews respond to burst pipes, sewage backups, roof leaks, and storm flooding throughout the state, with the fastest response times closest to the Stamford office.
We start by thoroughly assessing your property. For safety reasons, we will disconnect the water main and any electrical breakers in the area. And once we’ve assessed the extent of the water damage, we can create a plan for how to remove and repair it.
At this stage, we can also provide you with an estimate for our restoration services. We work with insurance companies to ensure you’ll receive the coverage you’re entitled to.
Next, we create a plan of action. We’ll relocate your belongings to protect them from further damage. Then, we strategize about exactly how we’ll remove the standing water from your property, and we get to work.
We use equipment like pumps and heavy-duty vacuums to remove water. And we don’t just remove water from the floors—we also check the walls, insulation, and ceilings for damage, too. Our emergency restoration services are comprehensive; you can trust that we’ll do a thorough job.
Even once the standing water is removed, you’ll still notice high humidity and moisture levels. We begin the dry-out process as soon as possible to preserve the structure of your home.
We use commercial-grade equipment and dehumidifiers to lower moisture levels. In addition, we use air movers and fans to promote airflow.
How long will the dry out take? It depends on the size of your property and the extent of the damage. We’ll continuously monitor moisture levels until they’ve returned to a healthy level.
Water leaks may contain all kinds of toxins, from hazardous waste to contaminants that cause illnesses. Once all standing water is removed, and we’ve dried out the affected areas, we will thoroughly clean and sanitize your property.
Disinfection services are especially important when you’re dealing with sewage backup. Our cleanup services aren’t complete until your property in Connecticut is safe to inhabit again.
Mold spores can spread quickly through the air. We caution you against cleaning mold growth damage yourself; without protective equipment, you could expose yourself to harmful bacteria. That’s why we offer mold remediation services, as well.
After all the water is removed from your property, the next step is repairing it. We aim to restore your building to how it looked before the damage—or, to make it look even better!
In many cases, we will need to completely replace any wood, laminate, or carpet. We’ll examine each part of your home to determine what’s salvageable, and what’s better off being replaced.
Losing your home in Connecticut can be devastating. After a disaster, our restoration process will make your house feel like a home again.
With this service, we aim to minimize any damage from a water leak emergency. We identify the leak, stop the flow of water, and move your belongings to a safe area. Essentially, we aim to diminish any damage from the water.
After this is complete, you can schedule our water restoration services. We’ll remove damaged materials and renovate your home to restore it to its initial condition.
At Bella Contracting, we’ve been in business for over 20 years; in that time, we’ve seen all kinds of water damage. Depending on the location of your property, your property may be more susceptible to flood damage or sewage backups. Here is some of the most common water damage that we see in Connecticut:
01.
You can’t miss the smell of a sewer. The foul odor of a sewage backup is both unpleasant, harmful, and hazardous to your health. Sewage backups happen when sump pumps fail, or septic tanks overflow. Exposure to sewage gases should be avoided at all costs. Sewer gas contains harmful bacteria that can make you sick.
02.
Extreme weather events pose dangers to the community and the buildings within it. Flood damage can be extensive and may affect the entire home or business.
Have you been affected by extreme weather events like Hurricane Ida? After disaster strikes, you might be left with a flooded home or business. With our 24/7 emergency services, you can trust that we’ll be there when you need our help. After you’ve dealt with a water removal emergency, you’ll want to prevent future issues. We also offer storm drain installations; these systems will divert water away from your property in Connecticut. This prevents a water emergency after a heavy rainfall or flood.
03.
Why do pipes burst? In the dead of winter, your pipes may freeze. This causes the water inside them to expand, which can break the material or create a leak. Your pipes can also backup from oil, soap, or hair buildup. It’s best to address these plumbing issues immediately to avoid an emergency cleanup.
04.
As roofs age, they develop cracks and gaps that may cause a leak during heavy rainfall or when the snow melts. It can be difficult to trace the source of a leak, particularly with tar and gravel roofs, but our contractors have the experience to identify and repair roof leaks.
05.
You’ve noticed a steady increase in your water bill—could it be from a leaking appliance? Over time, even a small water leak can lead to extensive damage. Whether it’s your dishwasher, washing machine, or kitchen sink, we can repair your leaking appliance.
06.
Did you forget to turn the faucet off? If your faucets are leaking, or your drain is clogged, you could end up with a waterlogged bathroom. Common signs of water damage include cracked paint, warped floorboards, mold growth, soft wooden materials, and discoloration or staining.
Bella Contracting Services has been restoring water damage across Connecticut for years, with a Stamford office positioned to respond quickly across Fairfield County and beyond. Because Bella is also a licensed general contractor and demolition company, not only a restoration company, water damage that has reached framing, subflooring, or drywall can be repaired by the same team that handled the extraction and drying, without a separate contractor for reconstruction. Bella serves commercial and industrial properties across its Connecticut service area, with residential work handled on a case-by-case basis.
Bella Contracting Services provides water damage restoration for commercial and industrial properties throughout Connecticut, including office buildings, retail spaces, warehouses, and multi-family developments. Residential properties are also handled on a case-by-case basis. Crews respond to burst pipes, sewage backups, roof leaks, and storm flooding, then extract standing water, dry and dehumidify the structure, and sanitize affected areas. For a property that needs an immediate response, Bella offers a free estimate to start the restoration process.
Yes. Bella Contracting Services is based in Stamford, Connecticut, and restores water damage throughout Fairfield County, including Stamford, Norwalk, Bridgeport, and surrounding towns, as well as the greater New Haven area.

Yes. Bella Contracting Services is a licensed general contractor that also performs demolition work, in addition to water damage restoration. For water damage that requires removing and rebuilding subflooring, drywall, framing, or finishes, Bella’s team can complete both the demolition and the reconstruction, so a Connecticut property owner does not need to separately source a demolition contractor and a construction contractor. Contact Bella for a free estimate covering the full scope of repairs.
Water damage worsens quickly, so Bella Contracting Services prioritizes fast response for Connecticut commercial and industrial properties experiencing active flooding, sewage backups, or burst pipes. The sooner standing water is removed, the less damage spreads to floors, walls, and structural framing, and the lower the risk of mold growth. Property owners dealing with an active water emergency should call Bella right away at (855) 368-3366 to schedule an inspection and get a free estimate.
The timeline for water damage restoration depends on the size of the affected area, how long water was present before removal began, and whether the damage reached structural elements like framing or subflooring. A single-room leak typically dries faster than a flooded basement or a multi-floor sewage backup. Bella Contracting Services inspects the property first to scope the work accurately, then provides a free estimate with a realistic timeline before restoration begins.
