Quick action needs to happen so that a water damage situation does not turn into a mold infestation. Contact SERVPRO to quickly assess the situation.

SERVPRO Provides Water Removal, Dehumidification and Drying for Homes in Carol Stream

After work, residents arriving home to find their floors covered in water after a plumbing leak in a Carol Stream home often begin mopping up excess water immediately. Standing water can lead to secondary damage if the water is not immediately removed. Water seeps everywhere to the lowest point in your home. Leaks running for some time can pour hundreds of gallons of water onto the floor, inside walls and ceilings, and into basement rooms below the leak. Water and moisture not properly removed and your contents / structural components dried can lead to mold infestations growing in as little as twenty-four hours.

Residents of Carol Stream can call SERVPRO for water removal services, dehumidification, and drying. Our teams can be onsite within four hours of your call. Once the water source is shut off, our water removal specialists deploy weighted water extractors to remove water from carpeting and underpadding. Hardwood floor drying mats are used to remove water from the joints between hardwood floor planks. We use wand water extractors to remove water from inside walls and cavities. We check ceiling panels for water and moisture and dry the area as required.

Air movers and dehumidifiers remove the remainder of the moisture and reduce humidity levels to normal levels. Fast action and removal of all moisture minimize the opportunity for mold spores to initiate a mold colony. Mold can cause health effects. 

SERVPRO water removal services include:

• Mold inspections, remediation, and removal
• Ceiling repairs from water damage
• Water damage restoration and repair
