You’re not dealing with just water when flooding strikes your Hales Corners home or business. You’re racing against time before that water soaks deeper into your floors, walls, and belongings.
Our emergency response team gets to your property fast because we know what happens when water sits. It doesn’t just sit there—it’s actively working its way into every porous surface, creating the perfect environment for mold growth within 24 hours.
When we arrive, we immediately start extracting standing water and begin the drying process that stops further damage in its tracks. You get your property back to pre-flood condition, not a compromised version of what it used to be.
We’ve been serving Hales Corners and the greater Milwaukee area for years, and we’ve seen firsthand how devastating water damage can be to families and businesses in our community.
We’re not some distant corporate chain. We’re your neighbors, and we understand the unique challenges that come with Wisconsin weather and the older infrastructure many of our homes and buildings have. When the historic August 2025 floods hit Hales Corners with 7 inches of rain, we were there helping residents whose basements filled with 5 feet of water.
Our team knows the local building codes, works with area insurance adjusters regularly, and understands what it takes to get properties properly restored in our climate.
We don’t just show up and start pumping water. Our systematic approach ensures nothing gets missed and your property gets completely restored.
First, we assess the full extent of the damage, including areas you might not think to check. Water has a way of traveling through walls and under floors, so we use moisture detection equipment to find every affected area.
Next comes immediate water extraction using professional-grade pumps and vacuums. We remove standing water quickly to prevent it from spreading further into your structure. Then we set up our industrial drying equipment—dehumidifiers, air movers, and specialized drying systems that pull moisture out of materials that would otherwise need to be replaced.
Throughout the process, we monitor moisture levels and document everything for your insurance claim. You’re not left guessing about what’s happening or when you can expect your property back to normal.

Flood damage cleanup isn’t just about getting the water out. It’s about addressing every aspect of what that water touched and ensuring your property is truly restored, not just dried out.
Our service includes structural drying using advanced equipment that pulls moisture from inside walls and subflooring. We handle content cleaning and restoration for your belongings that can be saved. When necessary, we provide mold remediation services because Wisconsin’s humidity creates perfect conditions for mold growth after water damage.
In Hales Corners, we often deal with basement flooding from sump pump failures and storm water intrusion. We understand the specific challenges these situations create, from dealing with contaminated water to addressing foundation moisture issues. Our team has the experience and equipment to handle everything from minor water intrusion to major flood damage that affects multiple levels of your property.
We also coordinate with your insurance company throughout the process, providing detailed documentation and working directly with adjusters to ensure your claim is handled properly.
We provide 24/7 emergency response and can typically reach properties in Hales Corners within an hour of your call. Speed matters with flood damage because water continues spreading and soaking deeper into materials every minute it sits.
Our emergency response team is always on standby with fully equipped vehicles ready to begin water extraction immediately upon arrival. We understand that flood damage doesn’t happen on a convenient schedule, which is why we maintain round-the-clock availability every day of the year.
The faster we can begin the water removal and drying process, the more of your property and belongings we can save, and the lower your overall restoration costs will be.
Insurance coverage for flood damage depends on the source of the water and your specific policy details. Most standard homeowner’s policies cover sudden water damage from sources like burst pipes, appliance malfunctions, or roof leaks, but may not cover flooding from external sources like storm water.
We work directly with insurance companies and adjusters throughout the Milwaukee area, so we understand the claims process and can help document the damage properly for your claim. We provide detailed reports, photos, and moisture readings that insurance companies require.
If you’re unsure about your coverage, we recommend calling your insurance agent immediately after the damage occurs. We can also provide a free assessment to help you understand the scope of damage and what restoration will involve, regardless of your insurance situation.
The main difference lies in the source and contamination level of the water involved. Water damage typically comes from clean sources within your property like broken pipes or appliance leaks, while flood damage usually involves contaminated water from external sources like storm runoff or sewer backups.
Flood damage restoration requires additional safety precautions and specialized cleaning procedures because the water often contains bacteria, chemicals, and other contaminants. This means affected materials may need more extensive cleaning or replacement compared to clean water damage.
Our team is trained and equipped to handle both scenarios safely. We assess the contamination level of the water and adjust our restoration process accordingly, ensuring your property is not only dry but also safe and sanitary when we’re finished.
The timeline for flood damage restoration varies based on the extent of damage, the size of the affected area, and how quickly we can begin the drying process. Most residential flood damage restoration takes between 3-7 days for the drying phase, with additional time needed for any reconstruction work.
Smaller areas with minimal damage might be dry within 2-3 days, while extensive flooding that affects multiple rooms or levels can take a week or more to properly dry. We use moisture monitoring equipment to ensure materials reach proper dryness levels before we consider the job complete.
During the restoration process, we provide daily updates on progress and moisture readings so you know exactly where things stand. We don’t consider the job finished until moisture levels are back to normal and your property is completely restored to pre-damage condition.
Many items can be successfully restored after flood damage, but it depends on the type of water involved, how long items were submerged, and what the items are made of. We evaluate each item individually and use specialized cleaning and restoration techniques when possible.
Items like furniture, electronics, documents, and personal belongings often can be cleaned and restored if we can begin treatment quickly. We have specialized equipment for content cleaning and drying that can save items you might think are total losses.
However, porous materials that have been contaminated by sewage or storm water may need to be disposed of for health and safety reasons. We’ll provide honest assessments about what can be saved and what needs to be replaced, helping you make informed decisions about your belongings and insurance claims.
Your safety comes first, so avoid entering areas with standing water if there’s any possibility of electrical hazards. Turn off electricity to affected areas at the circuit breaker if you can do so safely, and avoid using electrical appliances in wet areas.
Call us immediately for emergency water extraction—the sooner we can begin removing water, the less damage your property will sustain. While waiting for our arrival, try to remove valuable items from the water if you can do so safely, and take photos of the damage for insurance documentation.
Don’t attempt to use regular household equipment like shop vacuums for major water removal, as they’re not designed for this type of situation and can be dangerous. Professional water extraction equipment is much more effective and safer for handling contaminated flood water.
