Flooded Basement

This is a picture of a bathroom in a basement that was flooded in Madison Wisconsin.  In the picture, you can see just how high the water traveled.  When flood waters enter your home or business, it also carries whatever was outside!  When you have water in your basement, call the professionals at SERVPRO of Northbrook/Wheeling/Glencoe to come help you out!

Extensive mold damage

After a fire occurred in the unit above this one, firefighters put the fire out using water and flooded the unit from above.  Once the water sits for a few days with no access to dehumidification and airflow, this is the result.  Unfortunately, we had to remove the cabinets to get access to the mold.  When it was all said and done, it was "like it never even happened".

Fire damage to a home in Schiller Park

This was the scene of a fire that occurred in a second floor bedroom.  Please be careful lighting candles in your home, because they can become a problem very quickly!  We were tasked with cleaning, sanitizing, and removing the odor from this room.  Below this, water had traveled down in the first floor bedroom and caused extensive damage.  When you have a fire, call the professionals here at SERVPRO of Northbrook/Wheeling/Glencoe at (847)498-8889!

Flooded basement outside Madison Wisconsin

After the recent storms passed through Madison, SERVPRO of Northbrook/Wheeling/Glencoe was sent up to help the local communities.  This was the scene after the storm passed at a Childrens museum.  It is hard to tell in the picture, but there was over ten feet of water in the basement!  We had no idea what was in the basement until we had pumped everything out, which took about two days!  There is no job too big or small for SERVPRO of Northbrook/Wheeling/Glencoe, and we were so happy to have the opportunity to help our neighbors up in Wisconsin!

Smoke Damage

SEWAGE DAMAGE!

After a recent storm hit Evanston,  this home had sewage back up from their drains.  This is never a pleasant thing to have to experience, but with the help of the professionals at SERVPRO of Northbrook/Wheeling/Glencoe, we made it "Like it never even happened."

Doing things the right way!

Whenever our crews are working with mold, they are required to suit up and wear masks.  Proper protective equipment is so important in our industry.  Not only do they wear masks, but they also wear suits, so they dont take mold with them after the job is complete!

Mold in between floors

After this customer noticed a slow leak in their living room ceiling, they had a contractor open the ceiling to find an abundant amount of mold between her unit and the unit above.  Slow leaks like this provide a suitable home for mold to settle in.  

Local Gym has water damage after a recent storm

After a recent stretch of rain that occurred in Northbrook, a local gym had contacted us because they had a roof leak.  Our crews immediately responded and extracted the water and set up drying equipment. 

Flooded basement after a recent storm

This was the aftermath of a rain storm that caused extensive water damage to a home in Park Ridge.  When the sump pump fails, or cant handle the amount of water coming in, a flood will occur!  If you ever need help with water in your basement, give the professionals at SERVPRO of Northbrook/Wheeling/Glencoe a call ASAP!

SERVPRO Cares!

No matter what the job is, SERVPRO always takes the time to protect whatever flooring you may have.  Our crews are trained to enter a home with shoe covers and always lay tarps down from the entrance to the affected areas. 

A big Rain storm brought water to this basement

After a big rain storm rolled through Chicago recently, we received many calls about water in basements.  Sometimes, there is just too much water for the Sump Pump to keep up.  That's when we are called in to clean up the water from the storm.  Day or night, SERVPRO is always there!

Basement Flooding

When it rains, it pours!  At this home in Park Ridge, they had a sump pump that could not keep up with the amount of water that was being pushed into it.  Unfortunately, when this happens, the water will come back into the basement, and the crews need to pump it back outside!  Crews responded quickly on a Sunday to get this water out of the basement.

Pipe leak in a Management office

After a pipe had burst in the ceiling of a management office, crews responded immediately to extract and dry the affected areas.  Once the ceilings were down and the carpet was extracted, crews set up drying equipment to stabilize the situation.

Hope you like your turkey burnt!

Thanksgiving is a great time for food, family, and most importantly, FOOTBALL!  For those of you who deep fry their turkey, make sure you have a plan in place in case something goes wrong!  Make sure that you completely remove any moisture from the turkey and that it is completely thawed out.  If you do ever experience a cooking fire, don't hesitate to call SERVPRO of Northbrook/Wheeling/Glencoe at (847)498-8889.

Hail Damage to Roofs

Hail storms do not happen every day, but when they do roll through, they can have some devastating effects on your roof.  Many times, you might not even realize that the damage has occurred, but over time, you may begin to see water coming in through your roof because of the storm. 

Act quickly when you have a water damage!

The most important thing you can do when experiencing a water damage is to act quickly!  Turn the source of the water off and call the professionals at SERVPRO of Northbrook/Wheeling/Glencoe to help you!  When exposed to large amounts of water, drywall will begin to sag or even drop, which is a huge hazard to anyone standing in the room!

Mold can grow on Concrete!

Mold, like any other living organism, needs food, water, and air to thrive.  It is not too common for concrete to develop mold, but it can happen in the right conditions!  Concrete is a porous material that can be susceptible to mold growth.  If you suspect mold to be growing on your concrete, give the professionals of SERVPRO of Northbrook/Wheeling/Glencoe a call day or night!

Fire Damage

Fires can be absolutely devastating.  On one hand, your are displaced from your residence and on the other hand, all of your belongings have been either lost, or covered in soot.  Here at SERVPRO we can handle your structure as well as the cleaning and discarding of your contents.

Water Damage in the office

You cant get any work done in the office if it is flooded!  The employees were happy to take the day off, but this does a number on production.  When your office experiences a water damage, it is crucial to get back up and running as soon as possible.  No other team can get you back to where you need to be than SERVPRO!

Bank Pipe Burst

We were recently called to a bank after a pipe had burst in the men's bathroom.  Crews were out late one night extracting, and setting up drying equipment to help this customer and stabilize the situation.  There is no job too big or too small for us!

Storm Damage to Local Businesses

As a company owner, are you prepared for disaster?  Storms can come fast, and have devastating effects on homes and businesses.  This picture was taken on our way down to Florida after a hurricane came through.  Motes are good in theory, but you don't want one around your business!

Water Damage in Commercial Buildings

Some of the worst water damages can happen in commercial buildings.  When a pipe burst in this commercial building, crews had to react quickly to clean the mess up.  The drywall seen in this picture had fallen on its own and crews had to remove more after.  Once the drywall was removed, crews had to extract the water from the carpet and set up drying equipment.

Improper Drying Can Cause Mold

After you experience a water damage to your home or business, it is imperative that you react quickly and efficiently to dry the area.  If building materials or contents do not dry quickly, then mold can develop and cause an even bigger issue than the water damage itself!

Check your Attic!

Mold can thrive in attics!  Especially when the attic is not up to code.  If you notice that your vents are not venting outside, fix it as soon as possible!  The moist air from these vents will pump into the attic, causing favorable conditions for mold to develop.

Mold loves attics!

Mold loves to be in damp, dark places.  An attic can be a perfect place for mold to thrive.  You should periodically check your attic for any signs of mold, it is much less expensive if you catch it early! 

Bad Tenants?

This is the scene of many unhappy landlords after evicting their tenants.  The home or apartment is left in complete mess and the landlord has to make sure everything is clean before renting again.  In order to get anyone to pay rent, they have to make sure that they are renting a habitable place to stay.  If you ever need deep cleaning, give SERVPRO of Northbrook/Wheeling/Glencoe a call!

Fallen Drywall

If you live in a multi unit residence, always look up before going to bed at night!  Water damages can happen at any time, without warning.  Drywall can be heavy, especially when it is soaked with water.  This condo owner was lucky she was not sleeping when this occurred!

Hoarding

Hoarding can be a big issue, especially if you have a water damage!  When we experience these losses, you have to deal with the water damage, but first, you have to deal with all the contents in the way of making progress.  It is a very delicate process, but we have mastered it at SERVPRO.
