Water Damage Restoration in Illinois

Around Chicago, water damage is a year-round concern shaped by two distinct seasons. In summer, the region's combined sewers can be overwhelmed by as little as two-thirds of an inch of rain in an hour, backing storm water up into finished basements across Cook and DuPage counties, while the Des Plaines and DuPage rivers spill into adjacent neighborhoods. The dense Wadsworth glacial clay beneath the suburbs holds water against foundations and presses on basement walls. In winter, one of the deepest frost lines of any major U.S. city, roughly 42 inches, freezes and bursts unprotected pipes. Whatever the source, trapped moisture in a closed-up home can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours, so fast extraction and drying are essential.
