You’re not looking for a sales pitch. You need your basement dry, your walls repaired, and your insurance claim handled without confusion.
That’s what damage restoration services in Sherman Park should actually deliver. A team that responds the same day, walks you through what needs to happen, and keeps you updated until the job’s done. No disappearing after the estimate. No surprise charges halfway through.
Most homeowners in Sherman Park deal with older homes—beautiful bungalows with character, but also aging pipes, roof vulnerabilities, and basements that flood when storms roll through. You need a restoration company that knows how to work with that. One that treats your hardwood floors and original woodwork like they matter, because they do.
We started Flood Guys Restoration because too many homeowners were getting burned by companies that overpromised and underdelivered. We’re a local disaster restoration company in Sherman Park, WI, and we’ve built our reputation on doing what we say we’ll do.
We know this neighborhood. We know the homes here were built before 1950, which means frozen pipes in January and storm damage when lake-effect weather hits. We also know that most families here are working with tight budgets and can’t afford to get taken advantage of when something goes wrong.
That’s why we focus on being clear about what needs to happen, what it’ll cost, and how long it’ll take. No inflated scopes. No vanishing after we get paid.
First, we answer. Day or night, weekends included. Emergency restoration in Sherman Park means being available when disaster doesn’t wait for business hours.
Then we show up—usually within a couple hours. We assess the damage, explain what we’re seeing, and tell you what needs to happen next. If it’s water, we start extraction immediately to prevent mold. If it’s fire or storm damage, we secure the property and document everything for your insurance.
From there, a project manager stays with your job from start to finish. You’ll get regular updates, not radio silence. We handle the tearout, the drying, the repairs, and the final walkthrough. And if you’re dealing with insurance, we’ll work directly with your adjuster so you’re not stuck translating between two industries you didn’t sign up to learn.

Property damage restoration in Sherman Park covers more than most people realize. Water damage from burst pipes, basement flooding, or roof leaks. Fire and smoke damage. Mold remediation. Storm damage from high winds or hail. Sewage backups.
We handle all of it under one roof, which means you’re not coordinating three different companies while your home sits unlivable. You get one team, one timeline, one point of contact.
In Sherman Park specifically, we see a lot of frozen pipe situations during Wisconsin winters—those repairs average over $5,000 and need to be handled fast before secondary damage sets in. We also work on a lot of older homes where small leaks turn into bigger problems because the infrastructure wasn’t built to modern standards. That’s not a knock on your house. It just means you need someone who knows how to work with it.
Our 24-hour restoration company model means we’re set up to respond when you need us, not when it’s convenient for us. Because property damage doesn’t keep a schedule.
Most of the time, we’re on-site within two hours. If you call in the middle of the night or during a major storm when everyone’s getting hit at once, it might take a bit longer—but we’ll tell you that upfront, not leave you guessing.
Speed matters because the first few hours after water or fire damage determine how much can be saved. Water keeps spreading. Mold starts growing within 24 to 48 hours. Smoke residue sets into walls and fabrics.
The faster we start extraction, drying, or securing your property, the less you’ll pay in the long run. That’s why emergency restoration in Sherman Park isn’t just about showing up—it’s about showing up ready to work, with the right equipment already loaded.
Yes. We’ll document everything, take photos, write up the scope, and communicate directly with your adjuster if you want us to.
Most homeowners don’t deal with insurance claims often, and the language can be confusing. Adjusters want specific details—moisture readings, material lists, labor breakdowns. We provide all of that in a format they’re used to seeing, which speeds up approval and gets you paid faster.
We’ve worked with every major carrier. We know what they cover, what they push back on, and how to present a claim so it doesn’t get delayed or denied over paperwork issues. You’re still in control—we’re just handling the technical side so you don’t have to become an expert in something you’ll hopefully never need again.
Water damage from burst pipes, basement flooding, roof leaks, and sewage backups. Fire and smoke damage. Mold remediation. Storm damage from wind, hail, or fallen trees.
Sherman Park homes deal with specific challenges. Older plumbing systems are more likely to freeze or fail. Basements flood during heavy rain because the drainage systems weren’t designed for today’s weather patterns. Roofs on homes built in the 1930s and 40s are more vulnerable during storms.
We’ve seen it all here, and we know how to fix it without cutting corners. That includes working around original woodwork, hardwood floors, and other features that make these homes worth restoring properly in the first place.
We give you a written estimate before any work starts. If something changes during the job—like we open a wall and find more damage than expected—we’ll stop, explain what we found, and get your approval before moving forward.
No surprise bills. No inflated invoices at the end. The price we quote is the price you pay unless the scope genuinely changes, and even then, you’ll know about it before it affects your bill.
We also break down costs clearly. You’ll see what’s going toward labor, materials, equipment, and disposal. If your insurance is covering it, we’ll make sure the estimate matches what they need to process the claim. If you’re paying out of pocket, we’ll work with you to prioritize what needs to happen now versus what can wait.
It depends on the damage. A straightforward water extraction and dry-out might take three to five days. A fire restoration with structural repairs could take several weeks.
What slows things down is usually insurance approval, material availability, or discovering hidden damage once we open things up. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and update you if anything changes.
For most Sherman Park homeowners, the bigger concern isn’t how long the work takes—it’s whether they’ll be kept in the loop. That’s where a lot of companies fail. We assign a project manager to your job who checks in regularly, answers your calls, and makes sure you’re never wondering what’s happening with your own home.
Sometimes, but not always. If the damage is contained to one area—like a basement or a single room—you can usually stay. If there’s major water damage, active mold, or fire damage affecting air quality, we’ll recommend staying elsewhere until it’s safe.
We’ll tell you honestly what makes sense. If you need to leave, we can help you document everything for insurance, which often covers temporary housing costs during restoration.
For jobs where you can stay, we’ll section off the work area, control dust and debris, and try to keep disruptions to a minimum. It’s still your home. We’re just there to fix what’s broken and get out of your way as soon as possible.
