Water damage can occur in
your home or business for a variety of reasons. You may have a broken
pipe or your hot water heater breaks. There may be flooding outdoors or
even your own sprinkler system not operating properly.
Whatever the reason, they key is to get that water out as soon as
possible. We know that this can occur at any moment which is why we are
dedicated to providing you with such services any day and any
time.
We are the top provider of water restoration services in the entire
Chicago area. We want to help you recover from the situation as quickly
and as affordably as possible. Immediate action is needed though, so
that you don’t end up with forms of bacteria forming in your
floors and walls. You also don’t want to have to deal with
mold or mildew as they can cause serious health problems for your
family and your pets.
Chances are you will be upset when such water damage occurs, but we are
here to help you get through it. We have the right equipment, the right
training, and access to the right products to help you recover quickly
from water damage. We are going to arrive at the scene as quickly as
possible to make this an issue that you no longer have to deal with. We

Some people assume that they can just take care of it on their own.
They reach for towels and a shop vac. They may even put a few fans in
place to be able to get it all to dry quicker. Yet such efforts
aren’t going to get enough of the water out.
Don’t try to do it yourself to save money as it will cost you
much more in the long run. Your next phone call needs to be to your
insurance company. You can file a claim with them that will help to
offset the cost. For many people the cost of our water restoration
services is even lower than their deductible with the
insurance.
It is important for you to know that they can’t force you to
use their restoration company for the clean up. Many of them will try
because it can save them money but it can result in you getting less
than you deserve. You also don’t have to wait for the
adjuster to come out. We can be at your home immediately while it can
take few days for the insurance company to get there. Never allow the
water to continue sitting there while you wait for their
arrival.
We will get there, and get you on the way to having your home or
business back the way it was. Keep in mind that we may need to set up
industrial fans and dehumidifiers to help dry your carpets completely.
The process may seem too simple and for professionals like us it is.
For the average person with only basic items to work with the same
results won’t be found.
There may be some loss due to water damage; however, quick action is
going to help minimize it. While we can’t guarantee that you
will have everything saved, we can give it our all. If you have had to
turn off the water source then leave it off until you can get a plumber
to look at the problem.
You may want to move items that aren’t replaceable as well,
especially personal belongings that have sentimental value attached to
them. Any paperwork or pictures you have that could be damaged need to
be moved as well. Mold & bacteria can start to set in less than
24 hours after the water damage has occurred. The less wet material you
have around the less likely you will have a problem with it.
Here are some quick reference tips to help you get through such an
event:
* Call us as soon as you notice water damage has occurred. We
want to
prevent the growth of mold & bacteria.
* Never use a vacuum on
wet flooring as you can get shocked.
* Never go into a room with
standing water if your electricity is on. Turn it off first.
* If you can leave the electricity on until we arrive, turn on
all the
fans you have and your air conditioner. This will reduce the risk of
mold, mildew, and bacteria forming. Open doors as well to help with the
drying process.
* If the water isn’t deep, blot it with large towels
and use
mops to get as much of it out as you can.
* Remove rugs that you have
in place and take them outside. They may be heavy this way so get some
help to move them. Do the same with cushions from chairs and couches.
* If your furniture is wet, wipe it down with clean towels.
Try to
place blocks or other forms of protection if you can to get them out of
the water. Even plastic wrap or aluminum foil can help.
* Try to pin up
curtains if they are touching the water on the floor. You can also take
them down and get them outside to dry.
* Gather up as much valuables as you can as they may be ruined
by the
water. Even if your insurance will cover most things there will be
those that simply can’t be replaced such as photos and
personal documents.
