Water Damage Cleanup in Cicero

We handle water damage cleanup across Cicero, from the first call to the last moisture reading, and we're available day or night.

Homes and Plumbing

A lot of the housing in Cicero went up between the 1980s and the 2000s. Newer houses like these are mostly plumbed with copper or PEX, while older homes here may still have galvanized steel or early copper lines.

Winter and Frozen Pipes

Freeze and thaw cycles put pipes in crawl spaces at risk of bursting in winter.

We cover every part of Cicero, including Stillwater Cove and the streets around Ryan White Memorial and Hamilton Heights High School. Nearby, we also take water damage calls from Tipton, Westfield, Sheridan and Atlanta.

Expert Water Damage Restoration for Cicero Homeowners

Some water damage shows up slowly in your Cicero home, as a soft spot in the floor or a stain that keeps growing. A slow leak can soak a subfloor for weeks before anyone notices. Cicero Water Restoration dispatches a crew within 2 hours to find the source and read how far the water spread. Those readings also show whether mold needs to be part of the plan.

The truck Cicero Water Restoration sends to your Cicero home carries equipment for a house full of wet material. Pumps and extraction tools pull the standing water, and dehumidifiers and air movers dry what's left. Moisture meters and a thermal camera find wet spots behind walls. The crew sizes the setup to your rooms and adjusts it each day as the readings drop.

Water travels down, so the work starts at the highest wet level and moves toward the lowest. In a two story home the crew deals with the upstairs source first, then follows the water to the ceilings and walls below it. Cicero Water Restoration reads each floor of your Cicero home in that order, which keeps equipment from drying a room that's still taking on water from above.

Homeowners policies carry a deductible, which is the portion of a covered loss you pay before coverage applies. For a small leak, the cost to dry and repair could land near that amount, so it helps to know the scope before you decide whether to file. Cicero Water Restoration writes the scope for your Cicero home from the readings, and your agent can explain how the deductible applies.

Take a few photos of the water and the spot it came from, then phone Cicero Water Restoration about your Cicero home. Those pictures start your record, and the crew adds its own photos and readings on the first visit, so the file is complete from the first day of the job.

Our Process

How Cicero Water Restoration Handles Water Damage Restoration

We follow these steps in order on every Cicero job.

1

Two Hour Dispatch

A crew dispatches to your Cicero home within 2 hours of your call, day or night. The truck carries pumps, extraction tools, dehumidifiers, air movers, moisture meters and a thermal camera, so the work starts on the first visit.

2

Moisture Mapping

The crew checks every affected room with a thermal camera and moisture meters, then reads rooms the water never reached to set a dry target. The source gets identified, and every wet area is photographed before any equipment goes in.

3

Photo Report

Photos, readings and the scope go into a photo report you keep. The crew walks you through it, so you can decide with your insurance company, and you sign off on the scope before any removal starts.

4

Protecting Your Belongings

Furniture gets blocked up off wet floors or moved to a dry room, and floor covering goes down along the path the crew walks. Damaged items are photographed and listed before anything leaves the room.

5

Power and Cord Safety

Equipment is plugged into separate circuits so a single tripped breaker is less likely to stop the whole drying setup, and cords run along walls and away from wet areas. You hear which outlets to leave alone in your home.

Common Questions

Water Damage Restoration FAQ

Questions Cicero homeowners ask us about water damage restoration.

A family member or a neighbor can meet the crew at your Cicero home and show them the wet areas. Tell Cicero Water Restoration who will be there and how to reach you by phone, and the crew will go over what it finds with you before any removal begins. Extraction and the first round of drying can go ahead with a helper on site, and the photos and readings come to you either way.
It usually does, because contaminated water adds steps to the job. The crew sets up containment, wears protective gear, removes porous materials that soaked up the water and disposes of them. Clean water from a supply line can often be dried in place with less removal. Category depends on the source and on how long the water sat, so Cicero Water Restoration records both for your Cicero home before writing the scope.
Your policy and your insurance company decide that, and policies differ on causes like sudden leaks, slow leaks, sewer backup and flooding. Read the water section of your policy or call your agent. The photo report shows what the crew found, and Cicero Water Restoration walks you through it, so the conversation with your insurance company starts from the same facts. The report shows the source, the wet areas and the readings.
Ask to see the paperwork from a recent job. A company that follows the S500 can show daily moisture readings, dry reference readings from unaffected rooms, equipment counts and photos tied to each room. Ask how its technicians are trained and request a sample log. Cicero Water Restoration shares the readings and photos from your Cicero home as the work goes, so you can see the method for yourself.
Wet drywall, wood and subfloor hold water inside them, and it comes out slowly. The air movers pull water off the surfaces, and the dehumidifiers take it out of the air, so the materials can keep giving up more. Dense wood and plaster give it up slowest. Cicero Water Restoration runs the equipment around the clock and checks the readings daily, and the equipment comes out when the numbers say the house is dry.
Yes, because water can move up a category the longer it sits. Clean water from a supply line starts as Category 1, but it picks up contaminants from flooring and dust, and standing water gives that process more time. Cicero Water Restoration records when the loss started and how long the materials stayed wet in your Cicero home, because those times affect which materials can be dried and which have to be removed.
Yes. If the crew finds mold while drying your Cicero home, Cicero Water Restoration walks you through where it is and what removing it involves. The work follows the IICRC S520, with plastic containment, HEPA filtered air and removal of the affected material. Drying continues at the same time, since mold returns to anything left wet. The mold work gets its own line on the scope, so you can see it separately.
Start with safety. If water is near outlets or the panel, shut off power to those circuits from a dry spot. If the water came from a sewer line, keep people and pets away from it. Shut off the main water valve if you can reach it. Then move small items off wet floors and leave the rest in place so the crew can photograph it for your report.
The thermal camera shows surface temperature differences, and wet materials often look cooler than dry ones, so it points the crew to places worth checking. A moisture meter then gives an actual reading for the drywall or wood at that spot. Camera images guide the search and meter readings confirm what's wet, so Cicero Water Restoration records the numbers beside the images for your Cicero home.
Many homeowners handle drywall and paint themselves once the structure is dry, and the final readings tell you when it's time to start. Plumbing and electrical work is a different matter, since it may need a qualified tradesperson and a permit, so check with your local building department. Ask Cicero Water Restoration for the drying log and photos from your Cicero home so you know which walls and floors were opened.
