Our 7-Step Emergency Flood Cleanup Process for Vernon Hills, IL Residents
1. Inspection and Assessment
We arrive as scheduled at your Vernon Hills home or business and perform an immediate inspection.
Our teams secure the property and address any hazards, such as structural instability or black water contamination.
2. Restoration Plan and Consultation
Based on our damage assessment, we outline a restoration plan that includes a proposed timeline for job completion.
We discuss the details with you and encourage your input. Your questions are welcomed and answered.
3. Advanced Water Removal
With your approval, we get to work immediately. We pump water out of basements and crawlspaces with advanced truck-mounted extraction systems.
Our technicians use powerful vacuuming equipment to take care of residual water in flooring and carpets.
4. Water Damage Mitigation
Next, we mitigate the damage with a series of steps, including: clearing out general debris; tearing out ruined structural materials; removing water-damaged contents; and addressing salvageable belongings.
5. Controlled Structural Drying
Our mitigation process continues with carefully controlled structural drying.
We set up industrial-grade equipment that operates 24/7. Our technicians closely monitor the progress of heavy-duty axial fans, centrifugal air movers and desiccant dehumidifiers.
6. Property-Wide Remediation
Pre-restoration prep begins by deep cleaning all areas affected by the flooding.
We hand-scrub surfaces with specialized cleaning agents, and then go over everything a second time with sanitizing and disinfecting products. This step also includes mold removal and remediation.
7. Complete Interior Restoration
We finish our process by replacing walls, repairing ceilings and rebuilding floors. All flood-damaged interiors are restored to their pre-loss condition with professional attention to every detail.
After a post-restoration cleanup, we accompany you on a walk-through tour of the final results.
We’re proud of our work, but we don’t consider the job done until we have your complete approval. Only then do we consider the project a success.
