Stop the source & make it safe
Shut off the water at the main or fixture valve, cut power to wet areas, and keep people off wet flooring. Describe the source when you call so the right company is sent.
Extract standing water
Truck-mount and portable extraction pull water off the floor, out of carpet pad and from under cabinets before it wicks up walls — critical in basements and crawlspaces where water has limited drainage.
Structural drying & moisture mapping
Air movers and dehumidifiers dry the structure while moisture meters track hidden water in walls, ceilings, rim joists and crawlspaces, with daily readings. The company monitors for mold signs and only pulls equipment once materials hit dry standard.
Mold prevention & repairs
Antimicrobial treatment where needed, then reconstruction of drywall, flooring and baseboard once materials dry.

Water Damage insurance claims in Illinois
Sudden, accidental water damage — a burst pipe, a failed water heater, an appliance line — is generally covered under a standard Illinois homeowners policy. Gradual leaks and sewer backups are usually excluded; flooding needs separate coverage through the National Flood Insurance Program. The Illinois Department of Insurance publishes consumer guidance, and the company documents moisture logs for your adjuster.
