We experienced the complete failure of a basement pump that resulted in a great deal of flooding in our basement.
Caleb from FloodPros was first on site the same night we called for assistance. He presented himself and the company professionally while projecting empathy, concern and the ability to completely and clearly explain the impact of category three contaminated water.
All the staff we have dealt with are professional, task focused, empathic and extremely knowledgeable!
Hailey who works with submission of insurance claims is a warrior IMHO! She did a superior job of explaining the process, updating us on progress (or lack of) with insurance, advocating for us with insurance and clearly communicating with us at every step in the process.
I highly recommend FloodPros!

Great custom job done by Jose R. And Arturo. Had a good sized leak and the filled hole with cement and foam. Also sealed out side to help keep water out in the first place. Now I am not worried when we get heavy rains. Thank you Flood Pros!!!!!!!!
Frequently Asked Questions About Flood Pros Water Damage Restoration
What should I do immediately after experiencing water damage?
When faced with water damage, act swiftly. First, if possible, stop the water source by shutting off the main supply for plumbing issues. Next, turn off electricity in affected areas to avoid electrical hazards. Move valuable items to a dry location to minimize damage. Then, contact Flood Pros Water Damage Restoration for emergency assistance. If it's safe, begin removing water using towels, mops, or a wet/dry vacuum while waiting for professional help.
How fast does water damage need to be addressed?
Water damage requires immediate attention, ideally within 24 to 48 hours, to prevent mold growth, structural damage, and further property deterioration. Our team at Flood Pros Water Damage Restoration offers round-the-clock emergency response services in Rockford, IL and throughout Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin to address your water damage concerns promptly.
How do I know if I need professional water damage restoration?
Professional water damage restoration is necessary in several situations: when water has penetrated carpets, drywall, or ceilings; if there's potential for mold growth (typically after 24 hours); when the water source is contaminated (e.g., sewage or flooding); if you notice signs like buckling floors, swollen walls, or musty odors; or if the affected area is too extensive to manage on your own. In these cases, it's crucial to seek expert assistance.
What does the water damage restoration process involve?
Our comprehensive water damage restoration process at Flood Pros includes several key steps. We begin with a thorough inspection and damage assessment to identify the source, category, and extent of damage. Next, we perform water removal and extraction using industrial-grade equipment. We then employ high-powered fans and dehumidifiers for drying and dehumidification. This is followed by cleaning and sanitization to prevent mold and bacterial growth. Finally, we complete necessary restoration and repairs, which may include structural work, flooring replacement, and other remediation efforts to fully restore your property.
How long does water damage restoration take?
The duration of water damage restoration varies based on the severity of the damage. Typically, water extraction can be completed within a few hours to a day. The drying process usually takes 3-5 days. Repairs and restoration can range from a few days to several weeks, depending on the extent of the damage. At Flood Pros Water Damage Restoration, we strive to work efficiently to restore your property as quickly as possible while ensuring thorough remediation.
Can I stay in my home during the restoration process?
Whether you can remain in your home during restoration depends on the extent of the water damage. If there are safety concerns, extensive drying equipment in use, or structural risks, it may be advisable to relocate temporarily. Our team will assess your specific situation and provide guidance on whether it's safe to stay or if alternative accommodations are recommended.
Can water damage lead to mold growth?
Yes, water damage can indeed lead to mold growth. Mold can begin to develop within 24-48 hours in moist environments. This is why it's essential to contact Flood Pros Water Damage Restoration immediately. Our swift response in drying and treating affected areas is crucial in preventing potential mold issues.
How do I know if I have mold after water damage?
After water damage, there are several indicators of potential mold growth. These include persistent musty or damp odors, visible black, green, or white spots on walls, ceilings, or floors, allergy-like symptoms such as sneezing, coughing, or headaches, and signs of structural damage like warped walls or peeling paint. If you observe any of these signs, we recommend contacting us for a professional mold inspection and remediation service.
Does homeowners insurance cover water damage restoration?
Generally, homeowners insurance policies cover water damage resulting from sudden and accidental issues, such as burst pipes or appliance leaks. However, damage caused by flooding, lack of maintenance, or sewage backups may not be covered without additional policies. At Flood Pros Water Damage Restoration, we collaborate directly with all major insurance providers to assist you with your claim process.
How much does water damage restoration cost?
The cost of water damage restoration varies significantly based on factors such as the extent of damage, water category (clean, gray, or black water), and affected areas. A small area of water damage might cost a few hundred dollars to restore, while major restorations could run into several thousand dollars. To provide an accurate estimate, Flood Pros Water Damage Restoration offers complimentary damage assessments and detailed cost estimates.
