What Happened, When, and Which Rooms

Those are the first questions on every job. Send them here and we pick it up from there, or call and talk it through.

Water Damage and Flood Cleanup

A burst pipe, a backed-up floor drain or a basement that took on water in a storm all start the same way: getting the water out and finding out how far it went.

Water moves sideways inside walls and under flooring, so the wet area is usually bigger than the stain you can see. We trace it with moisture meters, open what has to come out and set up drying until the readings say the structure is dry.

Sewage backups get the same care plus cleanup of everything the water touched. Once things are dry, we rebuild what was removed.

Fire and Smoke Damage Cleanup

After a fire, the damage reaches well past the room where it started. Soot settles on ceilings and walls in other rooms, smoke odor gets into fabrics and framing, and the water used to put the fire out soaks floors and drywall.

We clean soot from the surfaces that can be saved, remove charred material that cannot, treat the odor at its source and dry out the water damage.

Then we rebuild the rooms that were affected, from the framing to the paint.

A North Side Restoration Company, Owner-Run Since 2006

Brian Cox has run Andersonville Restoration since he started it in 2006. He looks at the damage at each property in person, checks walls, floors and ceilings with moisture meters, and lays out the steps before any work begins.

Along with water and fire damage, we handle mold remediation, sewage backups, odor removal, storm damage and board-up, and we rebuild the walls, floors and ceilings that had to come out.

The jobs I find most interesting are water losses that have traveled, where moisture hides behind walls and under floors. Tracing it takes patience, and I like finding every wet spot.
