Restoration Rebuild in Elmhurst

If you are living in your Elmhurst house during the rebuild, we contain the dust, protect the rooms you still use, and put the damaged ones back in order. The on-site estimate is free and in writing.

Rebuilding in Elmhurst while you live there

A rebuild often happens with the family still in the house. ONIT Solutions plans the work around that: the damaged rooms are sealed off with dust containment, the floors you walk on are covered, and the work goes in a set order. Inside the containment we rebuild framing, insulation, drywall, flooring, trim, doors, cabinets and paint, matched to what was there. The scope is written while drying is underway, so the rebuild is ready when the readings are.

Elmhurst is on our regular route, off I-290 and I-294 and along York Road, North Avenue and St. Charles Road in DuPage County, from downtown and the Metra station to Elmhurst University. If your hardwood runs from a damaged room into a hallway or living room that stayed dry, the floor decides how much of the house gets disrupted. Weaving in new boards can work when the wood is still available, and when it is not, the floor may need replacing through the connected area. We put both options on the estimate so you and the carrier can see them.

Restoration Rebuild by ONIT Solutions

What the Elmhurst rebuild covers

Dust containment

Plastic walls and zipper doors seal the work area off from the rooms you are using.

Floor protection

Hallways, stairs and the path in and out are covered for the length of the job.

Hardwood repair or replacement

Boards are woven in where the wood is available, or the floor is replaced through the connected area.

Drywall and insulation

Opened walls and ceilings get insulation and drywall finished to match the rest of the room.

Cabinets, trim and doors

Damaged cabinets, base, casing and doors are replaced to match what stayed.

Paint and cleanup

Repaired rooms are painted wall to wall, and the work area is cleaned when we finish.

How a rebuild runs in an occupied Elmhurst house

We start with a free on-site estimate and talk through which rooms you need to keep using. The written scope lays out the order of the work, line by line, and you get a copy. If more damage turns up once a wall is open, we price it in writing and wait for your approval. Containment stays up until the dusty work is done, and at the end we clean up and walk the rooms with you.

FAQ

Restoration Rebuild in Elmhurst: questions

Can we stay in the house during the rebuild?
Usually, yes. We seal off the work area and protect the rest of the house. If the kitchen or the only bathroom is part of the rebuild, we talk through how to work around it before we start.
Is a permit required in Elmhurst?
Drywall, flooring and paint generally are not permit work. If framing, electrical or plumbing is involved, the city may require one, and we pull the permit and schedule the inspections.
How long will the rebuild take?
It depends on how many rooms are involved and what has to be ordered. We give you a schedule with the approved estimate and book around the days we said.
Do you work in towns next to Elmhurst?
Yes. We rebuild homes in Villa Park, Oak Brook and Addison too.
Who do I call if the damage just happened?
