Our 7-Step Restoration Process for Lincoln Park Residents
We understand that water damage can be overwhelming, but our expert team is here to guide you through every step of the restoration process. Here is how we do it:
IMMEDIATE DAMAGE ASSESSMENT
Our technicians arrive promptly, equipped and ready to assess the extent of water damage to your property, furnishings, and belongings. We also identify any structural issues to ensure safety during the process.
CONSULTATION AND ACTION PLAN
Next, we develop a detailed action plan for water damage mitigation and remediation. Our team explains the steps involved, so you know exactly what to expect, including a timeline for completion.
WATER DAMAGE MITIGATION
We begin by removing standing water with advanced extraction systems to prevent further damage. Our technicians also handle Category 3 water remediation (sewage and black water) to ensure safe removal of hazardous waste. We remove damaged materials like soaked drywall and flooring, preparing the site for restoration.
DEBRIS HAUL OFF AND DISPOSAL
Throughout the mitigation process, we continually remove and haul away debris, including ruined carpets, drywall, and ceiling materials, following local disposal regulations.
ADVANCED DRYING TECHNIQUES
Using industrial-grade equipment, such as air movers, dehumidifiers, and specialized floor drying systems, we thoroughly dry your property to prevent mold and structural damage.
WATER DAMAGE REMEDIATION AND SANITIZATION
We sanitize and deodorize all affected areas, ensuring safe and clean surfaces. Our team focuses on restoring any necessary structural elements and addressing any contamination from black water with industry-approved techniques.
COMPLETE PROPERTY RESTORATION
In the final step, we rebuild walls, replace floors, and repair ceilings. Salvageable contents like furniture are cleaned and restored. Once you give your final approval, your home or business is fully restored, and we consider the job done.

I needed the walls and ceiling in my kitchen to be removed due to a water leak from the unit above me. They were super cautious of my furniture and covered everything with plastic. I hired them to do my reconstruction as well and am extremely happy with my new cabinets! Barney Cruz2024-03-21 I had 4 inches of standing water in my basement. ServiceMaster was able to pump all the water out of the basement and cleaned and sanitized my floors and walls. I’m extremely impressed by how quick they worked and how clean they left my basement! madeline kim2024-03-12 I used ServiceMaster for a recent water damage issue.

The crew is professional and thorough cleaners. I highly Service Master. Andres Ortiz2023-12-17 While we were out of town our vanity mirror fell and turned on our sink faucet. Water was running for days, we're not sure when it happened, the fire department was alerted when the house sensors got wet and set off the alarms. our neighbor came over when she saw the fire department. We were called immediately. Our agent highly recommended neil at service master. He came out with a huge team and a general manager. I felt very comfortable with him and all office staff to get the job done while we were still out of town. My neighbor checked in on them until we returned. 80% of my entire house was gutted. I have a lot of custom wall paneling, crown molding and trim. They were able to save it all. They also did my packout and duct work cleaning. Everyone at service master was extremely knowledgeable and professionaland very helpful. Maurice Williams2023-12-09 I had a burst pipe in the middle of the night and one of my guest rooms was damaged. Service Master was able to get a crew to me first thing in the morning. Everyone was super helpful and treated my home as if it was their own while doing the necessary work. Aden Zrod2023-12-09 A week after I purchased this property it flooded with 12 inches of water. The previous owner left the basement full of stuff that was ruined by the flood. It was all getting thrown away but now the process was even harder. My State Farm insurance agent had a Servicemaster rep give me a call because I wanted to opt out of flood insurance. It was only a courtesy call to explain the process of mitigating and repairing a flooded basement. I reluctantly signed up for flood insurance just in case....Oh man I am glad I did; this flood situation was a nightmare, and the additional expenses would have been devastating if I didn't have insurance. I immediately called them after all my failed attempts of trying to get the water out. That 15 minute-call saved me thousands of dollars. Servicemaster by zaba rocks! the team was great and they saved me a huge headache. I highly recommend them and I am so grateful for my State Farm agent.
