When water damage hits your St. Francis property, every minute counts. The difference between a quick cleanup and months of reconstruction often comes down to how fast professional help arrives and starts working.
You get your life back sooner when the water extraction happens immediately, the drying process starts within hours, and mold prevention begins before problems develop. Your furniture, flooring, and belongings have a much better chance of being saved when restoration professionals know exactly what they’re doing.
The stress disappears faster when you’re working with technicians who handle the insurance paperwork, explain every step of the process, and keep you updated throughout the entire restoration. No surprises, no delays, no wondering what happens next.
We’ve been serving St. Francis and the greater Milwaukee area with professional water damage restoration services. As a family-owned business, we understand how overwhelming water damage can be for local homeowners and businesses.
Our certified technicians live and work in this community. We’ve seen firsthand how Wisconsin’s changing weather patterns—from intense summer storms that dump over 10 inches of rain to harsh winter freezes that burst pipes in basements—create unique challenges for St. Francis properties.
When you call us, you’re getting more than just water damage repair services. You’re getting neighbors who care about getting your property restored properly and getting your life back to normal as quickly as possible.
First, we assess the full extent of the water damage, checking for hidden moisture and potential safety hazards. Our technicians use advanced moisture detection equipment to identify all affected areas, not just what’s visible on the surface.
Next comes immediate water extraction using powerful pumps and extraction units. The faster we remove standing water, the better chance we have of saving your flooring, furniture, and personal belongings.
Then we start the drying and dehumidification process with industrial-grade equipment. This isn’t just pointing fans at wet areas—we monitor moisture levels continuously and adjust our approach based on the materials affected and environmental conditions. Throughout the process, we clean and disinfect all restorable items and surfaces, then handle any necessary repairs and reconstruction to return your property to its pre-damage condition.

Your water damage restoration includes complete water extraction, structural drying, dehumidification, cleaning, disinfection, and any necessary repairs. We handle everything from burst pipe cleanup to basement flooding restoration to sewage backup cleanup.
St. Francis properties face specific challenges from Wisconsin’s weather patterns. Heavy spring rains can overwhelm drainage systems, while winter freezes commonly cause pipe bursts in basements and crawl spaces. Recent historic flooding in southeastern Wisconsin shows just how quickly conditions can change—some areas received over a foot of rain in a single event.
We also coordinate directly with your insurance company, providing detailed documentation and working with adjusters to ensure your claim is processed smoothly. Many homeowners don’t realize that proper documentation during the restoration process can make a significant difference in their insurance settlement.
We provide 24/7 emergency response and typically arrive at St. Francis properties within 60 minutes of your call. Speed is critical in water damage situations—the longer water sits, the more damage it causes and the more expensive repairs become.
Our rapid response team is strategically positioned to serve the Milwaukee metro area, including St. Francis. When you call, we immediately dispatch certified technicians with all the equipment needed to start water extraction and damage assessment right away.
Time really matters because mold can begin growing within 24-48 hours after water damage occurs. By responding quickly, we can often prevent mold growth entirely and save belongings that might otherwise be lost.
We handle all categories of water damage, from clean water leaks to contaminated sewage backups. This includes burst pipes, basement flooding, appliance leaks, storm damage, sump pump failures, and sewage backups.
Each type of water damage requires different safety protocols and restoration techniques. Clean water from a burst pipe is handled differently than contaminated water from a sewer backup or flood water from outside sources.
Our technicians are trained to properly assess the water category and contamination level, then use the appropriate safety equipment and restoration procedures. We never cut corners on safety, especially when dealing with potentially hazardous water sources.
Most homeowner’s insurance policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, such as burst pipes or appliance leaks. However, coverage varies significantly depending on the water source and your specific policy terms.
Generally, insurance covers internal water damage like burst pipes but may not cover flooding from external sources unless you have separate flood insurance. Gradual damage from long-term leaks or maintenance issues is typically not covered.
We work directly with insurance companies and adjusters throughout the restoration process. Our detailed documentation helps ensure your claim is processed efficiently, and we can often bill your insurance company directly to streamline the payment process for covered damages.
Mold prevention starts with rapid water extraction and immediate drying. We use industrial dehumidifiers, air movers, and moisture monitoring equipment to create conditions where mold cannot grow.
We continuously monitor moisture levels in affected materials throughout the drying process. Different materials—wood, drywall, concrete, carpet—all have specific moisture content levels that must be reached before we consider them properly dried.
If we discover any existing mold growth during our assessment, we follow proper containment and removal protocols. Our goal is always to prevent mold growth from occurring in the first place through proper drying techniques and antimicrobial treatments when necessary.
First, ensure your safety—don’t enter areas with standing water if there’s any risk of electrical hazards. Turn off electricity to affected areas if you can do so safely from a dry location.
Try to identify and stop the water source if possible, such as shutting off the main water valve for a burst pipe. Take photos of the damage for insurance purposes, but don’t delay calling for professional help.
Contact us immediately for emergency water extraction. The sooner professional restoration begins, the better your chances of minimizing damage and avoiding costly complications like mold growth or structural damage. Don’t wait to see if things will dry out on their own—that approach almost always leads to bigger problems.
The timeline depends on the extent of damage, but most residential water damage restoration takes 3-7 days for the drying process alone. Minor leaks might be resolved in 2-3 days, while major flooding can take several weeks including repairs.
Factors affecting timeline include the amount of water, types of materials affected, weather conditions, and whether reconstruction is needed. We monitor moisture levels daily and won’t consider the job complete until everything reaches proper dryness levels.
We provide regular updates throughout the process so you know exactly where things stand. If reconstruction is needed after drying is complete, we coordinate those services as well to get you back to normal as quickly as possible.
