A Chicago homeowner called us at 11 PM after discovering their sump pump had failed during a heavy rainstorm, leaving several inches of standing water across their entire basement floor.
Our crew arrived within 90 minutes with a truck-mounted extraction unit capable of pulling 150 gallons per minute, which removed the bulk of the standing water in under 45 minutes.
We followed that with portable extractors to pull residual water out of carpet seams and from along the base of the walls where water had wicked upward.
By 2 AM, the basement was free of standing water and we had air movers running to begin the drying phase.
Standing water turns into mold and structural damage fast. Call now to stop the damage before it spreads.
