You walk back into a completely dry, safe space that smells fresh and feels normal again. No lingering moisture hiding in walls. No mold concerns keeping you awake at night. No insurance headaches because we documented everything properly from day one.
Your hardwood floors are level and secure. Your drywall is solid to the touch. Your basement doesn’t have that musty smell that screams “water damage” to future buyers. Most importantly, your family can move back in knowing the job was done right—not just dried out and painted over.
This is what happens when water damage restoration is handled by professionals who understand that your home’s value and your family’s health depend on getting every detail right.
We’ve been serving Shorewood and Milwaukee County for years, and we understand exactly what homeowners here face. From basement flooding during heavy rains to burst pipes in those beautiful older homes near the lake, we’ve seen how quickly water can disrupt life in this community.
We know Shorewood residents value quality work and straight answers. That’s why we explain exactly what we’re doing and why, document everything for your insurance company, and never leave a job until it’s completely finished.
Our team lives and works in this area. We understand that your home isn’t just an investment—it’s where your family builds memories. That’s why we treat every water damage call like it’s happening to our own family.
First, we stop the water source and assess the full scope of damage—including areas you can’t see. We use moisture meters and thermal imaging to find every drop of water hiding in walls, under floors, and in ceiling spaces.
Next comes rapid water extraction using industrial-grade equipment that pulls thousands of gallons per hour. We set up powerful dehumidifiers and air movers strategically throughout your home to create the optimal drying environment. This isn’t just about removing standing water—it’s about pulling moisture from materials before they warp, rot, or grow mold.
Throughout the process, we monitor moisture levels daily and document everything for your insurance claim. We don’t pack up and leave until moisture readings show your home is completely dry and safe. Then we handle any necessary repairs to get your space back to exactly how it was before the water damage occurred.

Every water damage call includes 24/7 emergency response, complete water extraction, structural drying, antimicrobial treatment, and full documentation for insurance claims. We handle everything from initial damage assessment to final repairs.
In Shorewood, we see a lot of basement flooding from storm water and sewer backups, especially in the older neighborhoods near Oakland Avenue. We also respond frequently to pipe bursts in those beautiful historic homes where plumbing runs through exterior walls. Our equipment is specifically chosen to handle these common local scenarios quickly and effectively.
We work directly with your insurance company and know exactly what documentation they need to process your claim smoothly. Most Shorewood homeowners are surprised to learn that proper professional restoration often costs less out-of-pocket than DIY attempts that lead to mold problems or structural issues down the road.
We provide 24/7 emergency response throughout Shorewood and can typically be on-site within 60 minutes of your call. Time is critical with water damage—every hour of delay increases the risk of mold growth and structural damage.
Our rapid response includes immediate water source identification, emergency water extraction, and placement of drying equipment to start the restoration process immediately. We understand that water damage doesn’t wait for business hours, which is why we maintain full crews available around the clock.
The faster we can begin extraction and drying, the more of your property we can save and the lower your overall restoration costs will be.
Most homeowners insurance policies cover sudden, accidental water damage like burst pipes, appliance failures, and roof leaks. However, coverage varies significantly between policies and depends on the water source and circumstances.
We work directly with insurance companies throughout Shorewood and understand exactly what documentation they require for smooth claim processing. We photograph all damage, provide detailed moisture readings, and create comprehensive reports that insurance adjusters expect to see.
Flood damage from external sources typically requires separate flood insurance, but most other water damage scenarios are covered under standard homeowners policies. We’ll help you understand your coverage and handle all communication with your insurance company to maximize your claim.
Most residential water damage restoration in Shorewood takes 3-5 days for the drying process, followed by 1-2 weeks for any necessary repairs. However, timeline depends heavily on the extent of damage, type of water, and materials affected.
Hardwood floors and drywall typically dry within 72-96 hours with proper equipment placement. Concrete and masonry can take longer. We monitor moisture levels daily and won’t consider the job complete until readings show your home is completely dry.
Extensive damage involving multiple rooms or contaminated water can extend the timeline, but we’ll give you a realistic timeframe upfront and keep you updated throughout the process. Our goal is always to get you back in your home as quickly as possible while ensuring the job is done right.
First, ensure your safety—avoid electrical hazards and contaminated water. If possible, stop the water source by shutting off the main water valve or fixing the immediate problem. Then call us immediately for emergency response.
Don’t wait to see if things will dry on their own. Remove valuable items from affected areas if you can do so safely, but don’t attempt major cleanup yourself. Professional water extraction and drying prevent secondary damage that can cost thousands more to repair later.
Take photos for insurance purposes, but don’t delay calling professionals. The first 24-48 hours are critical for preventing mold growth and minimizing structural damage. We’ll guide you through immediate steps while our crew is en route to your Shorewood home.
Mold prevention starts with rapid water extraction and proper drying within the first 24-48 hours. We use industrial dehumidifiers and air movers to create optimal drying conditions that make mold growth nearly impossible.
Our process includes antimicrobial treatments on all affected surfaces and materials. We monitor humidity levels throughout your home and don’t consider the job complete until moisture readings are within normal ranges. This comprehensive approach prevents both visible mold and hidden growth inside walls and under floors.
If we discover existing mold during the restoration process, we handle complete remediation using containment barriers and HEPA filtration. Our goal is not just to dry your home, but to ensure it’s completely safe and healthy for your family’s return.
In many cases, yes—but success depends on how quickly we can begin restoration and the type of water involved. Hardwood floors can often be saved if we can extract water and begin drying within the first 24 hours.
We use specialized hardwood floor drying systems that gradually remove moisture while preventing cupping and warping. For furniture, we evaluate each piece individually and use targeted drying techniques for different materials. Solid wood furniture typically responds well to professional drying, while particle board and some upholstered items may need replacement.
Clean water damage gives us the best chance of saving your belongings. Contaminated water from sewage or flooding often requires disposal of porous materials for health and safety reasons. We’ll give you honest assessments and work with your insurance company to ensure fair replacement values for items that can’t be restored.
