Emergency Water Damage Restoration Services


Our Water Damage Restoration Services

PuroClean QuickDry System™

Our QuickDry System™ is designed to dry affected structural materials and contents in a timely and effective manner. It includes:

  • A thorough assessment and inspection of the structure to determine what’s wet and how wet structural materials and contents are with infrared cameras and moisture meters.
  • The removal of standing water.
  • The application of specialized drying equipment.
  • Daily inspections and monitoring until materials have reached their pre-loss condition and established drying goals.

Our Water Removal Process

PuroClean Emergency Restoration Services‘s certified water damage restoration service professionals are there to ensure that the obvious and hidden water-damaged areas of your property are restored while giving special care to all your belongings.

Mold and Odor Removal

Water losses not handled in a timely manner can lead to additional damage such as microbial growth, cause structural components to lose their integrity, and potentially impact indoor air quality. Microbial growth may also result in compromised health issues developing in occupants.

PuroClean’s IICRC-certified service technicians follow industry best practices to properly conduct a mold removal that has infected and/or damaged property and return it to its pre-loss condition.

Once the scope of remediation services and repairs is determined, the team will implement engineering controls and containment measures to prevent cross-contamination to unaffected areas of the building. Negative pressure and high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration devices will be used. A remediation protocol is developed to remove contaminants through the following steps:

  • Removal of Compromised Materials: Removing damaged materials and contents according to industry standards to eliminate the source of contamination.
  • Thorough Cleaning with HEPA Equipment: Cleaning affected areas using HEPA air filtration devices and HEPA vacuums to remove particles and debris.
  • Surface Cleaning and Disinfection: Cleaning all surfaces with solutions that may include EPA-registered disinfectants, followed by additional HEPA vacuuming to ensure complete removal of contaminants.

Many people might use bleach to clean mold and for mold removal. However, this is an ineffective strategy as bleach does not kill the spores; it only bleaches them white. PuroClean’s mission is to restore your property or commercial properties cleanly and safely, using processes that ensure the mold infestation is eliminated entirely.

Odors are an indicator that something could still be wet. If something has a musty, pungent odor, it can indicate microbial issues that can create MVOC’s (microbial volatile organic compounds) and health-related issues. PuroClean’s approach is to follow industry standards to develop the proper scope of repair for your business or home. This includes employing specialized equipment and cleaning practices, followed by a clearance test to ensure your property has reached the desired condition.

Dangers of Not Resolving Water Damage

Water Damage Repairs Do’s and Don’ts


Repairing water damage is very important, but the safety of all parties is our number one priority. Whether mitigating or restoring water damage, the following tips will help reduce the risk of you suffering a setback due to a rain event, flood, faulty plumbing, leaking AC, or roof.

What to do

  • Turn Water Off: Shut down your home’s water supply and call a plumber for repairs.
  • Use Caution: Watch your step, as floors may be slippery. Also, watch for trip and fall hazards, as well as for exposed electrical wires.
  • Remove Water: Mop up as much water as possible. Open windows to speed up drying in cool weather; if safe, switch on your A/C in hot weather.
  • Prop Up Upholstery: Remove all loose cushions and prop up upholstered furniture.
  • Manage Area Rugs and Obstacles: Remove rugs and pick up any items that may be sitting on the floor.
  • Dry Storage Containers: Open wet suitcases and storage boxes; dry them in the sunlight if possible.
  • Protect Valuables: Move paintings and other artwork to a safe, dry place.
  • Dry Clothing: Immediately dry all garments. Hang fur and leather goods to dry at room temperature.
  • Protect Furniture: Place aluminum foil or plastic under furniture legs on wet carpeting. Open, but do not force drawers and cabinet doors to dry out interiors.
  • Call PuroClean Immediately: Call PuroClean of Metro-East Illinois and St. Louis at (618) 206-7055 Our trained technicians are highly skilled in water damage repair.

What Not to Do

  • Don’t Use a Vacuum Cleaner: Only use a wet vacuum, which is equipped to handle water. DO NOT USE your regular household vacuum.
  • Don’t Operate Electrical Appliances: DO NOT USE TVs, radios, computers, ceiling fans, or other electrical appliances while standing on wet carpets or floors, particularly concrete or tile floors.
  • Don’t Touch Outlets or Plugs: DO NOT PLUG OR UNPLUG any electrical appliances or touch anything already plugged in.
  • Don’t Turn up the Heat: Keep interiors cool, as mold grows in heat and moisture.

PuroClean QUICKDRY SYSTEM™

Our PuroClean QuickDry System™ employs a scientifically proven process to manage dehumidification and temperature, enabling fast and efficient drying. This system is designed to achieve the best possible outcome for your water-damaged home or business. *With this advanced method, we can save nearly everything: drywall, wood, carpets, and most of your belongings!

Here’s how the system works:

  • High-Capacity Air Movers: These powerful devices create intense air movement, mimicking the rapid motion of a tornado. This accelerates the evaporation of moisture from surfaces, significantly speeding up the drying process.
  • Low-Grain Refrigerant Dehumidifiers: These specialized dehumidifiers draw in cool, wet air and release warm, dry air, effectively removing moisture from the environment and ensuring thorough drying.
  • Moisture Measurement and Monitoring: We use advanced tools to measure and log the moisture content of materials throughout the process. This allows us to track progress in real-time and ensure your property is restored to the appropriate dry standard.

Our team acts quickly to minimize damage and streamline restoration. Within 24-48 hours, we provide a detailed estimate, complete with photos, to your insurance agent or adjuster, helping to expedite your claim.

Don’t delay—call us as soon as possible. The sooner we start, the more we can save!

*Certain extreme conditions may warrant additional drying time and/or the removal of carpet pad and structural components.
