Insurance and restoration work in Lemont

Our phone is answered 24/7, so call or text (815) 585-1750 whenever the damage shows up and we will send help as soon as we can. We extract the water, cut out wet drywall and baseboard where the wall needs to dry, and run air movers, dehumidifiers and air scrubbers sized to the space. Sewage, mold and fire damage each get the cleanup they call for before any rebuild starts. When the readings say dry, we put the rooms back.

We work in Lemont every week, coming in on I-355 and Lemont Road, with jobs off Route 171 and State Street and down toward the Des Plaines River and the I&M Canal. Lemont is a town of hills and bluffs, and if your house sits on a slope, heavy rain runs toward whichever wall faces uphill. If that wall is part of a walkout or a lower level, water can come in at the base of the drywall long before anyone sees it upstairs. We check that side with a moisture meter, open what is wet, and dry the cavity before it turns into a mold job.

Insurance & Restoration Work by ONIT Solutions

What a Lemont restoration job includes

Wall-cavity drying

When water gets behind finished walls, we dry inside the cavity instead of just the surface, and confirm it with readings.

Flood cuts and baseboard removal

Wet drywall is cut out above the water line and the baseboard pulled, which opens the wall to air and lets us see the framing.

Air scrubbing and antimicrobial

HEPA air scrubbers clean the air during the work, and affected surfaces get an antimicrobial treatment.

Backup and mold cleanup

Sewage-soaked materials are removed and hard surfaces cleaned and treated, and mold is removed inside containment with independent testing recommended after.

Fire and smoke damage

We remove charred and smoke-soaked materials, clean soot from what can stay, and dry the water left from firefighting.

Rebuild of every damaged room

Framing, drywall, insulation, flooring, cabinets, trim and paint, put back to match.

How we run a Lemont restoration job

You get the daily rate for each piece of drying equipment in writing before we set it up, and we check the equipment every day. The machines come out as soon as the moisture readings show dry, and you keep copies of those readings, our photos and the estimate. We write the estimate line by line in the pricing format carriers use, meet the adjuster on site if asked, and explain any supplement we send. Rebuild changes are priced on paper and wait until you approve them, and the job closes with a walkthrough.

FAQ

Insurance & Restoration Work in Lemont: questions

What should I do before you get here?
Turn off the water at the main if you can do it safely. Stay off wet floors near outlets, and do not touch anything electrical while you are standing in water. Move what you can to a dry room upstairs, photograph the damage room by room, then call your insurance company.
Do you work in towns around Lemont?
Yes. Homer Glen, Lockport, Woodridge and Darien are on our regular route for the same restoration and rebuild work.
Will you meet my insurance adjuster?
Yes, if they want to see the house with us there. We walk the damage together, go over our photos and readings, and if their scope misses something, we explain it and send a supplement. We do not promise what the carrier will approve or pay.
Does Lemont require permits for the rebuild?
Drying and removing wet materials usually do not need one. Rebuilding framing, or replacing wiring or plumbing that got damaged, often does, and we pull the permit with the village before that work starts.
How soon can you get started?
Call or text (815) 585-1750 any time, day or night. We dispatch as soon as we can and start with extraction, and the rebuild is scheduled once the readings show dry.
