Emergency Water Damage Restoration in Rockton, IL

Yes, we are fully equipped to handle Category 3 water damage, which includes raw sewage backups. We use specialized protective gear and hospital-grade sanitizers to safely extract the sewage and decontaminate the entire area.

Bleach only kills surface mold on non-porous materials. On porous surfaces like drywall or wood, bleach does not reach the roots, and the water in bleach can actually feed the mold. True mold remediation requires professional antimicrobial treatments and removal of the affected materials.

Our mold remediation involves sealing off the affected area with plastic sheeting, establishing negative air pressure with HEPA scrubbers, safely removing contaminated materials, and applying antimicrobial treatments to prevent future growth.

Water mitigation focuses on stopping the immediate damage by extracting water and drying out the property. Water damage restoration involves the full recovery process, including repairing drywall, replacing flooring, and restoring the home to its pre-loss condition in Rockton, IL.

If the water is from a clean source (like a broken pipe) and affects a small area, you can usually stay. However, if there is a sewage backup, severe mold remediation needed, or electrical hazards, our team at Prime Water Damage Restoration will advise you on whether temporary relocation is safer.
