Water and storm damage restoration in Palos Park

You can call or text 24/7, and we dispatch as fast as we can. We extract the water, take out the wet carpet, pad and drywall that cannot be saved, and run dehumidifiers and air movers with readings every day. If the water sat long enough for mold to start, we contain the area and clean it before anything is rebuilt. The rebuild follows, written up line by line for your insurance carrier.

Palos Park is on our regular route by Route 45, 123rd Street and McCarthy Road. If your Palos Park house is on a wooded lot near the Palos and Sag Valley forest preserves, leaves pile into the gutters and window wells every fall. A packed window well holds rainwater against the basement window until it leaks or the glass gives way, and a clogged gutter dumps water right at the foundation. We dry the basement, and before we rebuild, we point out the well or gutter that let the water in so it gets cleared.

What a Palos Park restoration job includes

Window well flooding cleanup

Water that came in through a basement window is extracted, and the wall and floor below it are dried and read.

Wet materials out

Carpet, pad, baseboard and the wet lower drywall are removed and hauled away when they cannot be dried.

Mold containment

If growth has started, the area is contained under negative air, cleaned and treated before the rebuild.

Daily checks

Equipment is checked and moisture is read every day, and the machines are removed once the readings show dry.

Documentation you keep

You get copies of the photos, moisture readings and estimate, the same set your carrier gets.

Rebuild and exterior trim

Basement walls, floors and trim are rebuilt, and storm damage to the siding and trim outside is repaired.

How a Palos Park restoration job runs

Before the drying starts, you have the daily rate for each machine in writing. We photograph and measure the damage as we go and write the rebuild estimate in the format carriers use. If we open a wall and find more, or the carrier's scope comes back short, the change is priced in writing and waits for your approval. We book the rebuild around the days we said and walk every room with you when it is done.

FAQ

Insurance & Restoration Work in Palos Park: questions

What should I do before you get here?

If a pipe or appliance is leaking, turn off the water at the main when you can reach it safely. Stay off wet basement floors near outlets, cords and appliances. Carry boxes and furniture up out of the water if you can, take photos of everything, and call your insurer to report the claim.

Do you give me copies of what you send my insurance company?

Yes. You get the photos, the moisture readings and the estimate, not just the carrier. That way you can see what was written and ask about any line. Call or text (815) 585-1750 if something on it does not make sense.

Do I need a permit for a basement rebuild in Palos Park?

Putting back drywall and flooring often does not need one, but framing, electrical or plumbing changes generally do. We check with the Village of Palos Park and pull the permit where it is required.

When can the basement be put back together?

After the readings show dry and you and your carrier agree on the scope. We then order materials and set rebuild dates, and we book around the days we said.

Which towns near Palos Park do you work in?

Yes, we also work in Palos Heights, Orland Park, Lemont and Homer Glen.
