Our 7-Step Water & Flood Damage Restoration Process For Highland Park Residents
- Initial Evaluation of Water Damage
The first step involves a detailed inspection of your Highland Park property to understand the extent of water damage, assessing both the building and its contents for salvageability and necessary actions.
- Strategy for Cleanup
Based on the initial evaluation, we devise a comprehensive cleanup plan, outlining the steps to keep the restoration process efficient and within timeline expectations.
Your questions and concerns are always welcome, and we are here to offer detailed explanations.
- Water Extraction and Mitigation
Utilizing advanced extraction equipment, we promptly remove standing water. High-efficiency vacuums are then used to eliminate remaining moisture.
We also address secondary damages such as structural issues and potential mold development.
- Removal and Cleanup of Unsalvageable Materials
Materials that cannot be saved are removed during this phase. This includes water-soaked carpets, damaged drywall, and compromised ceiling materials.
All debris is cleaned up and disposed of according to the City of Chicago’s demolition guidelines.
- Advanced Techniques in Structural Drying
We employ sophisticated drying techniques to prevent moisture damage to structural wood elements. Our arsenal includes desiccant dehumidifiers, fans, air movers, and specialized floor drying systems.
- Property-Wide Cleaning and Remediation
This phase involves a deep cleaning of affected surfaces. We thoroughly scrub, sanitize, and deodorize every area, conduct necessary structural repairs, and apply certified mold removal practices.
- Final Restoration
We reconstruct removed areas, including drywall, flooring, and ceilings. Replacements are made for door frames, window casings, baseboards, and trim. Water-damaged contents are restored to pre-damage condition.
We encourage a detailed review of our work to ensure your complete satisfaction.
