Water Damage Restoration
Our 24/7 emergency water damage restoration service utilizes industrial-grade extraction equipment and thermal imaging to detect hidden moisture. Certified technicians complete structural drying within 72 hours, preventing mold growth while documenting the process for insurance claims. We handle all phases from initial mitigation to final reconstruction with direct billing to major insurance providers.
Mold Remediation
Professional mold inspection and remediation services include air quality testing, black mold removal, and HEPA filtration. Our patented encapsulation process creates permanent moisture barriers with a 5-year warranty against regrowth. We identify and eliminate moisture sources while restoring affected areas to pre-damage condition using EPA-registered antimicrobial treatments.
Basement Waterproofing
Interior and exterior waterproofing solutions protect against hydrostatic pressure with French drains, sump pump systems, and vapor barriers. Our lifetime-warranty foundation crack repair uses epoxy injection technology. We address both surface water intrusion and groundwater issues through customized drainage solutions tailored to Cincinnati's soil conditions.
Fire Damage Repair
Full-spectrum fire damage restoration includes soot removal, odor elimination with thermal fogging, and structural repairs. Our team coordinates with insurance adjusters while implementing antimicrobial treatments to prevent secondary damage. We use ozone generators for complete smoke odor removal and restore contents through specialized cleaning processes.
Air Duct Cleaning
NADCA-certified air duct cleaning removes contaminants using truck-mounted vacuum systems and antimicrobial treatments. Our technicians sanitize coils, blowers, and registers while identifying moisture sources that could lead to mold growth. We provide before-and-after documentation with recommendations for maintaining indoor air quality through regular maintenance schedules.
