Water Removal Services After Chicago Basement Flooding 

From millions of homes in Cook County to large campuses like the University of Chicago, standing water is a universal threat to structures. Saturation into high porosity materials can lead to the deterioration of structural elements and contents, making restoration more costly for those affected. Water removal services during flood restoration and after basement flooding events can be a critical first step to better protecting the property from these potentially debilitating conditions.

Cleaning and Water Damage Remediation for Chicago Properties

There are multiple tools and practices that are involved in the fundamental drying process. Basement flooding and burst pipes can allow for a considerable spread of moisture damage. Air movers and dehumidifiers sit at the base of this operation, allowing for efficient evaporation to make water damage "Like it never even happened."

Our Restoration Process

Every water damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” water damage emergency.

1.  Emergency Contact

When you call us, our consultant will guide you through several questions that will help us respond to your water emergency more quickly and efficiently. This initial contact is an important part of a fast, effective restoration.

2. Inspection and Damage Assessment

We carefully inspect your property’s water damage, determining the type of water damage and the areas affected. This is a crucial step to creating an effective plan of action that will result in a successful restoration.

3. Water Removal / Water Extraction

Typically, hundreds or thousands of gallons of water are removed using our powerful pumps and vacuums during the water removal process. We start this process as soon as possible to minimize further damage and to help prevent mold growth.

4. Drying and Dehumidification

After the bulk of the water has been removed, we use specialized equipment to target the water that’s harder to access. Our Professionals use less intrusive, scientific drying methods to draw the remaining water and moisture from your property with air movers and dehumidifiers.

5. Cleaning and Sanitizing

Water damage also affects your belongings, like furniture, clothing, and personal items. We can clean restorable items using a number of specialized cleaning techniques. We also disinfect with antimicrobial treatments and remove odors using industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.

6. Restoration

The last step is restoring your home or business back to its pre-water damage condition. The restoration step can be relatively minor, such as replacing a few drywall panels, or could include major reconstruction, such as rebuilding entire rooms of a home or business.
