Call or text (815) 585-1750 any hour, and we get your New Lenox basement dry while saving as much of the finished wall as the readings allow. New Lenox is on our regular route.
We clean up flooded basements in New Lenox from extraction through rebuild. The water comes out first, then wet pad and carpet, then whatever drywall and insulation the readings show is wet. Drying equipment is set for the space and checked every day. When it reads dry, we replace a failed sump pump, add a battery backup and build the room back.
New Lenox is in Will County off I-80 and Route 30, and we cover it by Cedar Road and Laraway Road, near the Old Plank Road Trail. In a finished New Lenox basement, drywall wicks water up above the line you can see. We use a moisture meter to find how high it went, then make a flood cut a little above that line, straight and level, so the patch is clean when we rebuild. Below the cut, wet insulation comes out and the cavity gets air, and above it, the wall stays.
We meter the drywall to find how high the water wicked before deciding where to cut.
The cut runs straight and level around the room so new drywall can be finished in cleanly.
Wet insulation below the cut is removed and the open cavity is dried with air movers.
We extract the water, then take up the pad and any carpet that soaked through.
A pump that burned out or stuck gets replaced and run with water before we leave the pit.
We install a backup pump on its own battery to keep the pit draining if the power drops.
You call or text, we answer at any hour, and a crew heads out as fast as we can. The daily rates for the equipment are shown to you in writing first. After the basement reads dry, we measure the cut line and write the rebuild estimate. Extra work found behind the walls is priced in writing and only done once you approve, and the job ends with a walkthrough.
Call or text (815) 585-1750 any hour. We find how high the water went and take out only what has to go.
