Wade’s Restoration in Pennsylvania
Wade’s Restoration brings honest damage restoration to homeowners across Pennsylvania, from the Allegheny ridges to the Susquehanna Valley and every small town in between.

As part of the Locally family, Wade S Restoration sales & service means every Pennsylvania job carries our founding guarantee: the price Wade says on the phone is the price on the invoice, the person you speak with is the person who shows up, and the address published on this page is one you could drive to this afternoon.
Why Pennsylvania Homeowners Choose Wade’s Restoration
Pennsylvania weather has a way of finding the weak spot. A February ice dam backs water into your Lancaster County kitchen. A summer thunderstorm drops a maple through the roof in Bucks County. The basement in that stone farmhouse outside State College has been damp since the Eisenhower administration, and now there’s a smell you can’t ignore. When that happens, the first thing most people do is call a number they found online. The second thing they do, if they’ve been through it before, is brace for the bait-and-switch.
Wade Ferris started Wade’s Restoration in 2007 because he’d watched that same story repeat in Pennsylvania communities. A national chain quotes $800 over the phone, sends a subcontractor in an unmarked van, and the invoice says $2,400 with a dozen line items nobody mentioned. Wade’s answer was to put his own name on the truck and his own cell number in every ad. He’ll tell you “here is my cell” and mean it. He lives twenty minutes from the communities he serves, and he knows he’ll run into you again at the hardware store or the grocery. That’s the oldest accountability mechanism there is.
The 90-Day Done Right Promise isn’t a slogan. It’s stamped in writing on every restoration contract, water or fire or mold. If it’s not done right, Wade makes it right. No charge for that. He takes moisture readings every single day, logs them by hand, and hands the homeowner the full record when the job is finished. Almost nobody in this trade does that. When insurance is involved, and it usually is, Wade deals with the adjuster directly. You’re not stuck relaying information between two sides while your kitchen sits under plastic.
Calls come to a live person, 24 hours a day. No voicemail tree, no answering service in another time zone. Wade himself answers his own phone, and when a pipe bursts at midnight, he can have extraction equipment running inside the hour. His technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and trained to IICRC standards with professional-grade equipment: Dri-Eaz, Phoenix, Injectidry, XPOWER, B-Air. RIA-affiliated and IFA-recognized. The industry’s highest credentials, applied to your Pennsylvania home by people who actually live here.
Ask anyone on your street. Wade’s been at this since 2007, and in Pennsylvania’s small towns and rural counties, reputation is the only advertising that lasts.
Backed by the Locally Family
Locally began in 1997 when a retired county extension agent named Ward Selby got tired of hearing the same story: out-of-state plates, a quote that tripled at the door, a phone number that stopped working. He wrote down what a homeowner could verify in five minutes. A local area code that a person answers. An address you can drive to. The owner’s name and face. A license number you can look up. Any company that publishes all four can carry our name.
That list is still the entire standard. Wade’s Restoration meets it. The L.O.C.A.L. values code we share means local roots in Pennsylvania counties, not a call center three states away. On-time windows that hold. Community-first hiring and buying. Accountability that starts with Wade answering his phone and ends with his name on your invoice. Loyalty measured in decades, not single transactions. When you call Wade’s Restoration anywhere in Pennsylvania, you’re calling a Locally-backed company where “are you actually local?” is a question you can answer before you pick up the phone.
