How it works: typical national figures of about $3.75 to $7 per square foot for clean water, $4.50 to $8.50 for gray water and $7 to $13 for black water, multiplied by 1.25 to 1.7 for drywall, ceilings, hardwood or finished basements and by 1.25 when the water sat for more than two days, with a small-job minimum.

Typical Cost of AC Drain Overflow Cleanup
Typical national water damage cleanup costs can run from about $500 for a small, promptly caught wet area to $5,000 or more when ceilings, walls, or floors need extensive drying and material removal. These are typical ranges, not a price for a specific home.
- Small surface cleanup: $500 to $1,500. A limited wet area caught early may need extraction, moisture checks, and focused drying.
- One room with wet materials: $1,500 to $3,500. Wet flooring, baseboards, or a ceiling section can add drying time and material removal.
- Several affected spaces: $3,500 to $7,000. Water moving between rooms or levels can require more equipment and wider moisture mapping.
- Major concealed saturation: $7,000+. Long-running leaks with wet cavities or extensive demolition can cost more, with rebuild quoted separately.
What changes the price
- How much condensate escaped and for how long
- Whether ceiling insulation, drywall, or flooring holds water
- The square footage that needs extraction and drying
- Whether water crossed into adjacent rooms or levels
