Kitchen damage we restore in Hanover Park
Water, mold and fire damage each need different work, and they often overlap: a leak that wasn't dried turns into mold, and firefighting leaves water behind. We restore Hanover Park kitchens from start to finish so you deal with one contractor.
Smoke odor after a fire
If it still smells like smoke, residue is left somewhere. Cleaning and sealing remove it; air fresheners don't.
Kitchen Fire & Smoke Restoration →Musty smell in the kitchen
Odor without visible mold usually means it's somewhere you can't see. We locate it before opening anything.
Kitchen Mold Remediation →Burst supply or fridge line
A failed supply hose or ice maker line can soak a kitchen fast or slowly over months. We fix the line, pull out the water and dry the floor, walls and cabinets.
Kitchen Water Damage Restoration →Stovetop grease fire
After a stovetop fire, we separate burned materials from soot-covered ones and handle each.
Kitchen Fire & Smoke Restoration →Mold that returns after cleaning
Returning mold is a moisture problem. We solve that first, then remove the growth.
Kitchen Mold Remediation →Mold under the sink
Mold in the sink cabinet is almost always caused by a drip. We remove the moldy particleboard and clean what's behind it.
Kitchen Mold Remediation →Swollen cabinets or lifting floor after a leak
Puffed-up cabinet bottoms and cupped or loose flooring mean water got underneath. We dry the base and replace the parts that won't recover.
