WATER DAMAGE RESTORATION IN CHICAGO
Fast 24/7 water damage restoration services across Chicago and the surrounding suburbs. From burst pipes and basement flooding to sewer backups and storm water intrusion, our IICRC-trained technicians extract water, dry the structure, and rebuild — all under one contractor.
COMPLETE WATER DAMAGE SERVICES
FROM EXTRACTION TO
FULL REBUILD.
Water damage doesn't stop when the water stops flowing. Moisture seeps into drywall, sub-flooring, insulation, and framing — and within 24–48 hours mold can start to grow. The longer you wait, the more it costs.
United provides complete water damage restoration: emergency extraction, structural drying with industrial dehumidifiers and air movers, antimicrobial treatment, demolition of unsalvageable materials, and full reconstruction.
We document everything for your insurance claim — moisture readings, photos, thermal images, and Xactimate-compatible estimates — and we work directly with your adjuster.
EVERY SOURCE. EVERY SCENARIO.
CAUSES WE HANDLE
Burst & Frozen Pipes
Chicago winters are brutal on plumbing. We respond to burst pipe emergencies day and night — extract water, dry the structure, and replace damaged materials.
Flooded Basements
Basement flooding from heavy rain, foundation seepage, sump pump failure, or sewer backup. Complete water removal and basement restoration.
Sewer Backups
Category 3 (black water) damage requires specialized handling. We safely remove contaminated water, sanitize affected areas, and rebuild to code.
Appliance Leaks
Dishwasher leaks, washing machine overflow, water heater failure, refrigerator line breaks. Fast response prevents the damage from spreading.
Roof & Storm Leaks
Storm-driven rain, ice dams, and roof failures. We tarp the roof, dry the interior, and coordinate the full roof and ceiling rebuild.
Toilet & Bathroom Overflow
Bathroom flooding from toilet overflow, tub failures, or supply line breaks. Sanitize, dry, and restore — including affected lower floors.
Slow Hidden Leaks
Pinhole leaks, slab leaks, and slow drips that go undetected for months. Thermal imaging finds the source. We dry hidden cavities and rebuild.
Ice Dams & Water Intrusion
Chicago winters force ice at roof edges, driving meltwater under shingles. We clear the ice, dry the interior, and fix the underlying insulation issue.
OUR WATER DAMAGE PROCESS
FAST. METHODICAL. DOCUMENTED.
01
Emergency Response
Call (847) 275-2547. We arrive in 60–90 minutes ready to start mitigation. We document the loss from the moment we walk in.
02
Water Extraction
Truck-mounted and portable extractors remove standing water. Carpet and pad are pulled if needed. Affected materials are inventoried.
03
Drying & Dehumidification
Industrial air movers and LGR dehumidifiers dry the structure. Daily moisture readings track progress until materials reach dry standard.
04
Antimicrobial Treatment
EPA-registered antimicrobials applied to prevent mold growth. Air filtration runs during drying to capture airborne particles.
05
Reconstruction
Demolition of unsalvageable materials, framing, drywall, flooring, painting — full rebuild back to pre-loss condition (or better).
06
Final Walkthrough
We walk the completed work with you and your insurance adjuster, address punch-list items, and back qualifying work with our workmanship warranty.
EMERGENCY RESTORATION
ONE CONTRACTOR FROM FIRST CALL TO FINAL PAINT.
Most water damage restoration companies stop after the drying. They mitigate, then hand you off to find another contractor to handle the rebuild. That's a slow, frustrating, error-prone way to recover from damage.
United is a full general contractor with a restoration division — operated under the licensing and insurance of Salman Builders Group. We handle the emergency mitigation AND the rebuild — same crew accountability, faster timeline, single point of contact for your insurance claim.
