When water hits your Harambee home, every hour counts. The longer you wait, the deeper it soaks into your floors, walls, and foundation—turning a manageable problem into expensive structural damage.
We extract every drop of standing water, dry out hidden moisture in your walls and subflooring, and prevent the mold growth that starts within 24-48 hours. Your furniture gets protected, your belongings get salvaged, and your home gets restored to exactly how it was before the damage happened.
No lingering odors. No warped floors. No mold surprises six months later. Just your home, back to normal, so you can get back to your life.
We understand what Harambee homeowners face when water damage strikes. We’ve seen how Milwaukee’s unpredictable weather—from sudden downpours to spring flooding—can overwhelm even the best-maintained homes in this tight-knit community.
Our certified technicians know the unique challenges of Harambee’s older housing stock, from Queen Anne-style homes to century-old duplexes. We work directly with your insurance company to minimize your out-of-pocket costs, because we know every dollar matters to families in this neighborhood.
When your neighbor’s tree falls and rain pours into your basement, or when those summer storms hit harder than expected, you need someone who gets it. Someone local, reliable, and ready to help.
First, we’re on-site within 60 minutes of your call—day or night, weekend or holiday. Our team immediately assesses the damage, stops the water source, and starts extracting standing water before it spreads further through your home.
Next, we use industrial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers to pull moisture from inside your walls, under your floors, and from any hidden spaces where water likes to hide. We monitor moisture levels with professional-grade meters until everything reads completely dry.
Finally, we handle the repairs—from replacing damaged drywall to refinishing floors. We coordinate with your insurance company throughout the entire process, so you’re not stuck dealing with paperwork while your home needs attention. You get one point of contact, clear communication, and your home restored properly.

Our water damage repair services cover everything from burst pipes in your basement to storm damage flooding your entire first floor. We extract water, dry out your structure, remove damaged materials, and rebuild everything back to its original condition.
Harambee’s housing presents unique challenges—many homes here were built over a century ago, with original plumbing and foundations that need special attention during water damage restoration. We understand how water moves through these older structures and know exactly how to dry them out completely without causing additional damage.
We also handle the insurance side of things. With many Harambee residents facing tight budgets, we work directly with your insurance company to maximize your coverage and minimize what you pay out of pocket. No surprises, no hidden costs—just honest work at fair prices.
We guarantee arrival within 60 minutes of your call, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Water damage gets worse by the hour—what starts as a manageable cleanup can become major structural damage if you wait until morning or Monday.
Our emergency response truck stays fully stocked with water extraction equipment, industrial dehumidifiers, and moisture detection tools. The moment you call, we dispatch immediately to your Harambee location, whether you’re on MLK Drive or tucked back in the residential blocks near Rose Park.
Time matters in water damage situations. The faster we start extracting water and drying your home, the more of your belongings we can save and the less expensive your overall restoration becomes.
Most homeowner’s insurance policies cover sudden water damage from burst pipes, appliance failures, or storm damage—but flood damage requires separate flood insurance. We help you understand exactly what your policy covers before we start any work.
We work directly with your insurance company throughout the entire process. That means we handle the paperwork, document everything with photos, and make sure your claim gets processed quickly and fairly. You shouldn’t have to become an insurance expert just because water damaged your home.
Our team knows which repairs insurance typically covers and which might come out of pocket. We’ll walk you through everything upfront, so there are no surprises when the bills come due.
Mold prevention starts with complete moisture removal within 24-48 hours of the initial water damage. We use professional-grade moisture meters to check inside your walls, under your floors, and in other hidden areas where water loves to hide.
Our industrial dehumidifiers and air movers don’t just dry what you can see—they pull moisture from inside wall cavities and subfloor areas. We keep this equipment running until moisture readings match completely dry conditions, not just “dry enough.”
If we find any signs of mold growth during the restoration process, we contain the affected area immediately and handle the remediation using IICRC-approved methods. The goal is preventing mold problems before they start, not dealing with them later.
We handle all categories of water damage, from clean water (burst pipes, appliance leaks) to contaminated water (sewer backups, flood water). Each type requires different safety protocols and cleanup methods.
Clean water damage from a broken water heater or washing machine overflow is the most straightforward to clean up. Gray water from dishwashers or washing machines needs more careful handling. Black water from sewer backups or flood water requires full protective equipment and specialized disinfection.
Many Harambee homes have older plumbing systems that can fail unexpectedly, and the neighborhood’s location makes it vulnerable to storm flooding. We’re equipped to handle whatever type of water damage hits your home, with the right equipment and safety protocols for each situation.
Most water damage restoration projects take 3-7 days from start to finish, but the timeline depends on how much water entered your home and how long it sat before we started the drying process. Basement flooding typically takes longer than a single-room leak.
The drying phase usually takes 2-4 days with our industrial equipment running continuously. Once everything tests completely dry, we can start repairs—replacing damaged drywall, refinishing floors, or rebuilding whatever the water destroyed.
We keep you updated throughout the entire process. You’ll know exactly what we’re doing each day, when we expect to finish each phase, and when you can move back into the affected areas of your home.
Yes, we work with homeowners regardless of their insurance situation. We understand that many Harambee residents don’t carry flood insurance, especially since it’s not required unless you have a federally-backed mortgage in a high-risk flood zone.
For uninsured water damage, we offer flexible payment options and work with you to prioritize the most critical repairs first. Sometimes that means focusing on structural drying and mold prevention immediately, then handling cosmetic repairs as budget allows.
We also help you explore other assistance options, like FEMA disaster relief if your area qualifies, or local community resources that might help with emergency home repairs. Our goal is getting your home safe and livable, regardless of your insurance situation.
