Putting a Shorewood house back after a backup

Sewage is the most contaminated water a house can take, so everything porous it touched comes out: carpet, pad, the bottom of the drywall and the insulation behind it. That leaves more to rebuild than a clean water leak does, and we plan it while the cleaning and drying are still underway. The rebuild covers insulation, drywall, framing repairs, flooring, trim, doors and paint, priced line by line. You get copies of the estimate, the photos and the moisture readings.

We cover Shorewood in Will County on I-55, Route 59, Route 52 and Black Road. If your Shorewood basement is finished and a floor drain backed up, the doors and casing at floor level likely took it too, along with the bottoms of the jambs. Hollow doors and MDF casing soak up water and cannot be cleaned and kept after sewage, so they go on the scope as replacements. Hard surfaces like the slab and the framing get cleaned and treated with antimicrobial before anything new goes over them.

Restoration Rebuild by ONIT Solutions

Rebuilding a Shorewood basement after a backup

Porous materials replaced

Carpet, pad, drywall bottoms and insulation the water touched are replaced with new.

Antimicrobial before rebuild

The slab and framing are cleaned and treated before insulation and board go back.

Doors and jambs

Swollen doors, jambs and casing are replaced and hung so they close and latch.

Basement drywall

New board goes up from the slab to the cut line, taped and finished so the wall reads as one surface.

Flooring for a slab

We help you choose a floor that suits a slab and moisture-test the slab before it goes down.

Base and paint

Baseboard goes back on, and the rooms are painted wall to wall.

How a Shorewood backup rebuild is handled

We look at the damage, write a free estimate on site, and send it to you in writing before work begins. The scope lists every room in the format the carrier uses, and a supplement goes in if their scope misses something. Anything new we find gets priced in writing, and it waits for your approval. We book the work around the days we give you and do a final walkthrough with you.

FAQ

Restoration Rebuild in Shorewood: questions

What should I do before you get there?
Stay off the wet area and keep kids and pets away from it. Do not run water down any drain in the house until the line is cleared. Then call or text (815) 585-1750 and send a photo if you can.
Does homeowners insurance cover a sewage backup?
Sewer or water backup is often a separate endorsement on a homeowners policy, so check yours for it. We cannot promise coverage, and the deductible is yours either way, but we write the estimate in the format carriers use.
Will my Shorewood rebuild need a permit?
If walls get reframed or electrical work is part of the rebuild, it can. We check with the Village of Shorewood and pull permits where the job needs them.
Do you handle backups near Shorewood?
Yes. Joliet, Minooka, Channahon and Crest Hill are all on our list.
How long before the basement is usable again?
The rebuild starts once the cleaning is done, the readings show dry and you approve the scope. How long it runs depends on how much was removed and what flooring you pick, and we give you the days before we start.
