Floored | Damage Restoration & Flooring Services in Waukesha, WI

Early signs include gurgling sounds from drains, slow-draining sinks or tubs, and a foul sewage odor coming from floor drains or basement fixtures. If you notice water backing up around basement floor drains or toilets during heavy rain, you likely have a drain backup. Floored recommends calling immediately to prevent contaminated water from seeping into your flooring and subfloor.

It depends on the duration of water exposure and the type of wood. If we respond quickly after a burst pipe, we can often extract water, dry the subfloor, and then sand and refinish the hardwood on site. If water has caused boards to cup or buckle, we can repair or replace only the damaged sections and match the existing stain. Floored specializes in floor restoration and refinishing, so we prioritize saving your original flooring whenever structurally possible.

First, we extract all standing water and use commercial-grade drying equipment to dry the subfloor and walls. For vinyl or sheet flooring, we assess if water wicked under the material. If the flooring is compromised or the padding is saturated, we remove it, dry the concrete or plywood subfloor, and install new, water-resistant flooring like LVP. We coordinate with your insurance if needed, and we work to restore the bathroom to pre-loss condition quickly.
