Every project follows the same careful sequence to guarantee quality outcomes:
During your call, we gather essential information about your emergency. While you're on the phone, we're already mobilizing our response team. Emergency crews typically depart for your Ames, Iowa property within minutes of your call.
Upon arrival, our certified technicians conduct a thorough inspection of all affected and potentially affected areas. We determine the water source and category (clean, gray, or black water), evaluate safety concerns, and document conditions extensively. We identify which materials are affected, the extent of saturation, and areas requiring special attention.
With assessment complete, we immediately begin extracting standing water. Complete water removal is essential before drying can begin effectively. During extraction, we remove unsalvageable materials like saturated drywall, insulation, and carpet padding.
Proper equipment positioning creates optimal drying conditions. We establish baseline moisture readings in affected materials and unaffected areas for comparison. Drying continues until moisture levels return to normal dry standards verified by testing. Our scientific approach ensures complete, verified drying.
Cleaning prevents mold growth and eliminates contaminants. Air scrubbers remove airborne particles and improve indoor air quality. Odor elimination techniques including ozone treatment, hydroxyl generators, and thermal fogging address musty smells.
The final phase involves repairing and replacing damaged materials to restore your property to pre-loss condition. Restoration work includes drywall installation and finishing, painting, flooring replacement, trim and molding, electrical and plumbing repairs. We provide documentation of all work completed and warranties on our workmanship. Your complete satisfaction is our goal we don't consider the job done until you're thrilled with the results.

Extensive damage with major reconstruction may take several weeks to complete. The drying phase alone usually requires 3-5 days depending on saturation levels, materials, temperature, and humidity. Complex reconstruction requires more time. Our goal is complete, quality restoration as quickly as possible without compromising results.
Extensive damage, sewage contamination, or safety hazards may require temporary relocation. If only certain rooms are affected and other areas remain livable, you can often stay.

Our scientifically monitored drying process eliminates the moisture mold requires. We monitor moisture levels continuously until all affected materials return to normal dry standards. Proper ventilation and dehumidification create environments hostile to mold. If mold is already present when we arrive, we provide complete mold remediation following IICRC S520 standards.
