After years in the real estate industry, our founder Ben Schoenfeld experienced firsthand the frustration of being let down by unreliable contractors. He saw the same story repeat itself: homeowners in crisis, left waiting, overcharged, or left with incomplete work.
That experience became a mission. Jefferson Water Damage & Restoration was built to give Greater Philadelphia homeowners something that shouldn’t be rare: a restoration company that shows up, communicates clearly, works with your insurance, and doesn’t leave until the job is fully done.
From water damage emergencies to full home remodeling, Jefferson handles every phase of your property restoration. IICRC-certified, locally owned, always transparent.
We don’t just restore properties. We restore peace of mind.

Ben and team did great work with some water damage and a bathroom rebuild. They are very responsive, very professional, and I have an amount of trust in the business that is completely refreshing. They will be my first call if I need more work done in the future.

Ben and Dan arrived at my home about 30 minutes after I messaged Jefferson Restoration. My neighbor had a sewage flood in their basement which leaked into my basement ruining my floor. Ben and Dan were professional at all times and got my basement clean and dry and motivated the neighbor’s landlord to take care of the flood next door. They went above and beyond and their efforts are much appreciated. I will have them put down my new floor next week. Thank you Ben and Dan!

I had concerns over potential mold in my apartment so I contacted Jefferson Water Damage and Ben came out the very next day to check it out. He provided a free consultation and was thorough in his inspection. I appreciated his honesty regarding the mold as he confirmed that there was some but not something that urgently needed to be handled. Looking at the prior projects Ben and his team have done, I’m confident when I do remodel my bathrooms next year I’ll use Jefferson Water Damage as they’re a company that prides themselves on integrity and incredible work.
