Restoration Rebuild in Oakbrook Terrace

Once a sewage backup is cleaned up, we rebuild your Oakbrook Terrace lower level with new drywall, insulation, flooring and trim. The on-site estimate is free and written line by line.

Rebuilding after a backup in Oakbrook Terrace

Sewage is the dirtiest water a house can take, so the carpet, pad, drywall bottoms and insulation it touched come out during cleanup. That leaves a long rebuild list. ONIT Solutions does the cleanup and the rebuild, and we write the rebuild scope while the space is still drying. New insulation, drywall, base, doors, flooring and paint go back once the readings show dry and the hard surfaces have been treated.

We work in Oakbrook Terrace every week, along Route 83, Roosevelt Road and 22nd Street, with I-88 running past in DuPage County. If you live in a townhome or condo, talk to your association before the rebuild starts, since shared walls and some finishes may fall under its rules. A floor drain backup in a lower unit can also reach a wall the neighbor shares, and we write that wall as its own line so it is clear on paper. Sewer or water backup coverage is often a separate endorsement on a homeowners policy, so check yours when you open the claim.

Restoration Rebuild by ONIT Solutions

Oakbrook Terrace rebuild scope after a backup

Treated surfaces first

Concrete, framing and other hard surfaces are cleaned and treated with antimicrobial before any rebuild material goes in.

Insulation

Insulation that sewage reached is replaced, never dried and left in the wall.

Drywall and texture

New drywall goes up above the slab, gets taped and finished, and the texture is matched to the room.

Base and door jambs

Base trim and the bottoms of door jambs that wicked water are replaced and painted.

Flooring

We put back carpet, vinyl plank or tile, and if you want a hard surface instead, it is priced as its own line.

Lower level paint

Walls and ceilings in the affected rooms are painted so new and old work read as one.

FAQ

Restoration Rebuild in Oakbrook Terrace: questions

Is a sewage backup covered by my homeowners policy?
Sometimes. Sewer or water backup is often a separate endorsement, so check your policy or ask your agent. We cannot promise coverage, but we document the damage and write the estimate in the format carriers use.
Does Oakbrook Terrace require a permit for this kind of rebuild?
Drywall and paint usually do not. Electrical, plumbing or framing work may, and if the city requires a permit for it, we pull it and schedule the inspections.
How long does the rebuild take after a backup?
Cleanup and drying come first, and the timing there depends on what got wet. The rebuild is scheduled once readings show dry and the scope is approved. Call or text (815) 585-1750 and we can walk you through the timeline for your space.
Do you rebuild in towns around Oakbrook Terrace?
Yes. We cover Villa Park, Lombard and Elmhurst for rebuild work too.
What should I do while I wait for you?
Stay off the wet area, keep kids and pets away, and do not run water down the drains. Call or text (815) 585-1750 any time, since we answer 24/7.
