SERVPRO of Marquette Park / West Lawn / Ford City is here for your storm damage issues. Give us a call so we can help you today.

We work fast to clean and reconstruct damaged Chicago properties after a storm. 

With hundreds of thousands of homes throughout the Chicago area, many can be damaged and compromised by passing storm disasters. When floodwater penetrates a property, there is a finite amount of time before irreparable harm occurs to many exposed elements. Our SERVPRO team can help with fast repairs and mitigation solutions.

Debris Removal and Surface Cleaning

Storm damage cleanup for Chicago homes often starts with the residues and debris left behind after flood penetration. The presence of floodwater can overwhelm building materials like ceiling systems, causing a collapse under the weight. Muck-out cleaning can help mitigate loss for the household.

Water Removal and Drying Solutions

Standing water can be a substantial concern for area homes, namely when this pooling begins to absorb into porous materials. Eliminating surface water combines portable water removal tools with attachments for pulling trapped moisture from the flooring. We also have numerous deep extraction tools for severe water damage. Our mitigation services combine:

• Wet vacuums
• Light wands
• Submersible pumps

Reconstruction and Build-Back Services 

One of the benefits of choosing our SERVPRO team after storm damage is the general contractor license we have. Because high winds and torrential rainfall can be so devastating to a building’s envelope, there are many ways that our fast response and competent contractors can help, including:

• Replacing windows
• Roof repair
• Siding replacement
• Foundation repairs

The Windy City is no stranger to powerful storms that can damage homes and businesses. Repairing these properties after a loss begins with a careful inspection of the structure and a crafted restoration plan. Our SERVPRO of Marquette Park / West Lawn / Ford City team can help with efficient repair and recovery services. Call us today at (773) 337-3993.
