Water Damage Restoration
Our 24/7 water damage specialists use thermal imaging and industrial drying equipment to extract water and restore properties. With 43 years of Austin experience, we handle burst pipes, storm damage, and large-loss disasters while coordinating with insurance providers. Services include structural drying, mold prevention, and complete reconstruction for residential and commercial clients.
Mold Remediation
State-licensed technicians follow TDLR protocols for mold assessment and removal. We employ containment barriers, HEPA filtration, and antimicrobial treatments to eliminate mold at its source. Our process includes moisture control solutions to prevent future growth in Austin's humid climate while maintaining indoor air quality standards.
Carpet Cleaning
Using truck-mounted steam cleaning systems, we remove deep-seated dirt and allergens from carpets and fabrics. Our technicians apply pH-balanced solutions and protective coatings to extend carpet lifespan. Commercial clients benefit from after-hours service to minimize business disruption in Austin's office spaces.
Fire Damage Repair
We provide complete fire restoration including soot removal, odor neutralization with hydroxyl generators, and structural repairs. Our team handles emergency board-up, content cleaning, and coordination with insurance adjusters. Specialized techniques restore smoke-damaged valuables and electronics in both residential and commercial settings.
Rug Cleaning
Our IICRC-certified rug specialists clean delicate fibers using pH-controlled solutions and hand-grooming techniques. The nine-step process includes soil removal, spot treatment, and protective coating application. We handle valuable antiques and large area rugs at our Austin facility with pickup/delivery options for local clients.
