When you call us, you’re working with neighbors who understand both the technical demands of water restoration and the stress you’re facing right now.
Our proven five-step process ensures nothing gets missed and your property returns to pre-damage condition safely and efficiently.
First, we conduct a comprehensive damage assessment, identifying affected areas and potential hazards while developing your tailored restoration plan. Our trained technicians use moisture detection equipment to locate hidden water damage that could cause problems later.
Next, we extract all standing water using professional-grade pumps and begin structural drying with industrial dehumidifiers and air movers. We monitor moisture levels continuously to ensure complete drying and prevent mold growth.

Effective flood damage cleanup requires more than just removing standing water. Our comprehensive service addresses every aspect of water damage to protect your property and health.
We provide emergency water extraction, structural drying, moisture testing, mold prevention, content cleaning, and complete restoration services. Our advanced equipment includes thermal imaging cameras to detect hidden moisture, industrial-grade dehumidifiers, and specialized drying systems for hardwood floors and other materials.
For Avenues West properties, we understand the specific challenges posed by Milwaukee’s clay soil, older home construction, and the area’s proximity to water sources. We’ve successfully restored properties affected by everything from burst pipes to the record-breaking flooding Milwaukee experienced in 2025, when some areas received over 14 inches of rain in 24 hours.
We provide 24/7 emergency response throughout the Milwaukee metro area, including Avenues West. Our goal is to arrive on-site within one hour of your call, because rapid response is critical for minimizing damage.
Water damage spreads exponentially—what starts as a manageable situation can become a major restoration project within hours. The sooner we can extract standing water and begin the drying process, the better your chances of avoiding secondary damage like mold growth, warped flooring, or structural issues.
Our emergency response team is always on standby, equipped with professional water extraction equipment and ready to deploy immediately, day or night, weekends and holidays included.
Our comprehensive flood damage cleanup includes water extraction, structural drying, moisture testing, damage assessment, content cleaning, sanitization, and restoration services. We handle everything from initial emergency response through final repairs.
The process begins with removing all standing water using industrial pumps, followed by moisture detection throughout your property using thermal imaging and moisture meters. We then deploy dehumidifiers, air movers, and specialized drying equipment to eliminate all moisture from walls, floors, and structural materials.
We also provide mold prevention treatment, clean and sanitize affected areas, work directly with your insurance company, and complete necessary repairs to return your property to pre-damage condition. You get one team handling the entire restoration process from start to finish.
Preventing mold growth requires immediate action and thorough moisture elimination. Mold can begin developing within 24-48 hours of water exposure, making rapid response essential for Milwaukee properties.
We use industrial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers to achieve proper structural drying, continuously monitoring moisture levels until they reach acceptable standards. Our thermal imaging cameras detect hidden moisture in walls and other areas that could harbor mold growth if left untreated.
We also apply antimicrobial treatments to affected surfaces and ensure proper ventilation throughout the drying process. Our IICRC-certified technicians understand the specific moisture and temperature conditions that promote mold growth in Milwaukee’s climate, allowing us to take targeted prevention measures that protect your property and family’s health.
Yes, we work directly with insurance companies throughout the claims process to make your experience as smooth as possible during an already stressful time. We handle documentation, provide detailed damage assessments, and communicate directly with adjusters.
Our team understands insurance requirements and provides the comprehensive documentation needed for successful claims. We photograph all damage, create detailed scope of work documents, and provide accurate estimates that align with insurance industry standards.
We can also provide emergency services immediately while insurance approval is pending, because waiting for approval often leads to significantly more damage. Most homeowners insurance policies cover sudden water damage from burst pipes, appliance failures, and storm-related flooding, and we’ll help you navigate the specific coverage details of your policy.
The timeline depends on the extent of damage, but most residential flood cleanup projects take 3-7 days for the drying phase, with additional time needed for repairs and restoration work. Emergency water extraction typically happens within hours of our arrival.
Structural drying is the most time-sensitive phase—we need to remove all moisture from materials like drywall, insulation, and subflooring to prevent mold growth and structural damage. We monitor moisture levels daily and adjust equipment as needed to ensure complete drying.
Minor flood damage might require only 2-3 days of drying, while major flooding could take up to two weeks for complete restoration including repairs. Throughout the process, we provide daily updates on progress and realistic timelines based on your specific situation, so you know exactly what to expect each step of the way.
First, ensure your safety by avoiding standing water if there’s any possibility of electrical hazards, then call us immediately for emergency response. Time is critical—every hour of delay increases damage and restoration costs.
If it’s safe to do so, try to stop the water source if possible, such as shutting off the main water valve for burst pipes. Move valuable items to dry areas and take photos of damage for insurance documentation, but don’t attempt cleanup yourself with regular household equipment.
Avoid walking through contaminated floodwater, which may contain sewage, chemicals, or other hazardous materials. Don’t use regular household fans or dehumidifiers for major water damage—professional equipment is necessary to properly dry structural materials and prevent mold growth. Call us first, and we’ll guide you through immediate safety steps while dispatching our emergency response team.
