Commercial Water Removal in Indiana and Michigan
Professional water removal, drying, & damage restoration services
Flooding damages a building right away through the immediate exposure to water. However, greater damage is caused by the resulting mold growth within the affected structure.
Mold growth can lead to serious health issues, as well as damaged property, lawsuits, and even potential structural issues.
For a business, municipal building, or similar structure, floodwaters also mean one powerful truth: your building is closed for business until the damage is remediated.
We appreciate the urgent need for speed and competence when restoring a building that has been affected by flooding of any type.
To this end, we provide our clients with 24-hour emergency service, fast response, and some of the most capable disaster restoration contractors in the industry. We offer free written water removal quotes throughout Indiana and Michigan. Our service area includes South Bend, Fort Wayne, Granger, nearby areas such as Portage, Niles, Saint Joseph, Mishawaka, Elkhart, Huntington, Michigan City, and the surrounding regions.

Water Removal & Damage Restoration in Indiana and Michigan
Unlike other hazardous materials (such as asbestos) there are no clear regulations for "clearance levels" when conducting mold removal and remediation in Indiana and Michigan. However, the EPA has provided these goals for contractors seeking to perform successful mold remediation:
- Identify Source of Moisture: Many contractors find one source of moisture, address it, and stop. However, there are many scenarios where multiple water sources work together to contribute to indoor moisture problems. In other cases, water may be contaminated with bacteria, sewage, or toxic chemicals and will need special treatment. A complete inspection is the best way to catch all water issues before they turn into a mold problem.
- Search for Hidden Moisture: The obvious problem of standing water is often just the tip of the iceberg. Wall cavities, insulation, tiled ceilings, cavities underneath floors, and the insides of electrical conduits can also lead to enormous damages if not addressed quickly.
- Address Water & Mold Damage: Water residing underneath floors may have caused some deterioration of flooring. Electrical building components may have short-circuited, rusted, corroded, or become otherwise damaged by the water intrusion. Paper, furniture, and other items will show water damage, and drywall may need to be partially or completely replaced.
- Conduct A Followup Visit To Ensure Proper IAQ: A followup visit can ensure that all sources of moisture have been eliminated and that the proper indoor air quality has been restored to the home.
Water Removal & Air Quality
According to a study in the International Journal of Indoor Environment and Health, as much as 30-50% of respiratory health effects have been related to indoor moisture-related problems. These moisture problems include leaky roofs, gutters, pipes, extinguished fires, groundwater flooding, hurricanes, and more. When mold is allowed to establish itself and thrive in a building, as many as 20% of mold repair jobs may end in demolition.
