Restoration work in La Grange Park, from the first call to the last coat of paint

Our phone is answered 24/7, so call or text while the water is still on the floor, and a photo of the damage gets you a fast read. We dispatch as fast as we can, extract the water, set air movers and dehumidifiers sized to the room, and take moisture readings every day. Water, sewage, mold, fire and storm losses all run in the same order: stop the damage, dry it, then rebuild it. ONIT Solutions does the mitigation and the rebuild, so one company is accountable from the first reading to the final walkthrough.

La Grange Park is on our regular route, and we come in on I-294 and La Grange Road or across 31st Street and Ogden Avenue. In a two-story house, water from an upstairs bathroom rarely stays where it started, because it follows the joists and runs down inside the walls. Where an older La Grange Park house still has plaster ceilings, the plaster and lath hold water longer than drywall, so we take readings above and below the leak and in the wall cavities beside it. Those readings decide what has to come out and what can be dried in place.

Insurance & Restoration Work by ONIT Solutions

What a La Grange Park restoration job includes

Water extraction

Standing water comes up with extraction equipment before any drying starts, whether it sits on carpet, tile, wood or concrete.

Drying sized to the room

Air movers and dehumidifiers are set by the size of the room and how wet it is, with wall-cavity drying where a ceiling leak ran down inside a wall.

Daily moisture readings

We check the equipment and read the walls, floors and ceilings every day, and the equipment comes out as soon as the readings show dry.

Mold and sewage cleanup

Containment, HEPA air scrubbing, removal of affected materials and antimicrobial treatment are added when the water was contaminated or growth has started.

Estimate for the carrier

The estimate is written line by line in the pricing format insurance carriers use, with photos and readings behind each line.

Rebuild to match

Ceilings, insulation, trim, flooring and paint are put back to match the rooms around them.

How a La Grange Park water or fire job runs

Before the first air mover is plugged in, you get the daily equipment rates in writing. While the house dries, we photograph and measure what was removed and write the rebuild scope, and you get copies of the photos, the readings and the estimate. Anything the carrier adds, or anything we find behind a wall, is priced in writing and waits for your approval. We book the rebuild around the days we said and finish with a walkthrough of every room we touched.

FAQ

Insurance & Restoration Work in La Grange Park: questions

What should I do before you get here?
If it is safe to reach, shut the water off at the main, which is usually where the water line comes into the basement. Stay off wet floors near outlets and cords, and carry what you can to a dry room. Take photos of everything before it moves, then call your insurer to open the claim. Call or text (815) 585-1750 at any hour while you do it.
Can I pick my own contractor, or does the insurance company choose?
In most cases you can choose who does the work, and the carrier can still send its own adjuster to look at the damage. We meet the adjuster at the house if they want, and we send them our estimate, photos and readings. Coverage and payment are decided by your carrier, so check your policy for the details.
Does a La Grange Park rebuild need a permit?
Drying out a house does not usually need one, but the rebuild can. Replacing framing, moving electrical or redoing plumbing generally does, and repainting does not. We check with the Village of La Grange Park and pull the permit where the village requires it.
How long until my house is back to normal?
Drying depends on how much water there was and what it soaked into, and we read the moisture every day until it shows dry. The rebuild starts once the house is dry and you and your carrier have agreed on the scope. Then we order materials, set dates and book around the days we said.
Do you take restoration calls outside La Grange Park?
Yes. We also handle water, mold, fire and storm damage in La Grange, Western Springs and Hinsdale.
