How it's done

The ice dam water damage repair process in Cahokia

1

Commercial Water Extraction

Multiple portable pumps and extraction units remove standing water from Cahokia basements and attics within two hours. Crews prioritize contaminated water removal and electrical system protection.

2

Detailed Moisture Mapping

Infrared cameras and moisture meters identify saturation in every wall cavity, ceiling space, and foundation area of your Cahokia home. Older construction often conceals moisture in unexpected structural locations.
