Q&A
How does your truck-mounted steam cleaning system work for carpets?
Our truck-mounted system heats water to high temperatures and injects it into your carpet under pressure, then uses strong vacuum suction to extract the water along with dirt, allergens, and stains. Unlike portable units, we never recycle water—so every pass pulls out fresh contaminants. This method is ideal for high-traffic areas and delicate fabrics, and our technicians are trained to adjust settings for different carpet types.
What does your water damage restoration process involve for Wheeling homes?
When you call for water damage, we first assess the source—whether it's a roof leak, drain backup, or flood from the Des Plaines River. We extract standing water using industrial pumps and vacuums, then set up drying equipment and dehumidifiers. If drywall is affected, we cut out damaged sections, treat for mold prevention, and replace the drywall. Our team works quickly to minimize structural damage and restore your home to a safe condition.
How do you handle emergency water damage calls from local Wheeling residents?
We understand that water damage doesn't wait. Our technicians are on call for emergency services and aim to arrive within hours of your call. Because we're based near the Wheeling Town Center, we can quickly reach homes in Wheeling and nearby suburbs like Arlington Heights and Buffalo Grove. We bring all necessary equipment—extractors, air movers, and moisture meters—to start the drying process immediately and prevent secondary issues like mold growth.
