What We Do | Water Damage
At Advance Restoration, we follow the industry-leading IICRC S500 standards to restore your home or business quickly, safely, and completely.
Our certified technicians treat every job with urgency while ensuring no hidden moisture remains that could lead to mold or further damage. Here’s exactly how we restore your property step by step:
01
Rapid Emergency Response & Thorough Inspection
We arrive fast—often within hours of your call. Our team immediately stops the water source, secures the site for safety, and performs a detailed inspection using moisture meters, infrared cameras, and digital documentation. We identify the water category (clean, gray, or black), measure the extent of damage, and create a customized restoration plan.​
Water Removal & Extraction
Standing water is removed as quickly as possible using powerful truck-mounted extractors and portable equipment. This critical first step dramatically reduces drying time and prevents secondary damage to floors, walls, and belongings.
02
Structural Drying & Dehumidification
We set up a scientific drying system based on psychrometrics (the study of air and moisture). Industrial air movers, dehumidifiers, and heaters are strategically placed to pull moisture out of walls, floors, ceilings, and contents. We monitor progress daily with moisture readings until every material returns to its normal, pre-loss dryness level.
​
03
Cleaning, Sanitizing & Deodorizing
All affected surfaces and salvageable contents are professionally cleaned and sanitized. For Category 2 or 3 water, we apply EPA-approved antimicrobials and use containment barriers to prevent cross-contamination. We also treat odors at the source so your property smells fresh again.
​
Restoration & Final Verification
Once everything is dry and clean, we complete repairs—replacing drywall, flooring, trim, paint, and more—to return your property to its pre-loss condition (or better). A final walkthrough with you confirms the job is complete, and we provide full documentation for your insurance company.

What is Content Drying?
Water damages all sorts of belongings. While you can replace a majority of the items in your St. Clair, Oakland or Macomb County home, the cost to do so would undoubtedly be steep. It’s much more cost-effective to restore all the belongings you can, especially those that are simply irreplaceable, including antique furniture, family heirlooms, baby photos, contracts, and deeds.
At Advance Restoration, we can dry a wide variety of contents including:
​
-
Documents – Water is not discerning and will damage even the most important documents and photographs in your home or business. The techniques used for restoring soaked paper include air drying, thermal drying, freezing, dehumidifying, acid removal, and odor treatment. These methods remove water while protecting delicate paper and ink. If we are unable to adequately restore the original, we can possibly make a copy of the document for your records.
-
Furniture – The options for drying and cleaning water-damaged furniture include steam cleaning, ozone treatment, and thermal fogging. These processes clean, deodorize, and remove stains from upholstery.
-
Clothing and other textiles – Flood-soaked clothes, bedding, curtains, and other textiles can often be cleaned as usual in the washer and dryer. Dry cleaning or ozone treatment may be necessary to remove difficult stains and odors.
-
Electronics – As you know, electronics and water don’t mix. Our experienced team will assess the damage to computers, hard drives, tablets, TVs, and cell phones after a flood to determine if they are salvageable. With our prompt action and advanced cleaning and drying techniques, we may be able to preserve your electronics, allowing you to recover important files and documents.
Flooded Basement?
We can Restore it -
From storms and ice melt to plumbing problems and sump pump failures, basements are prone to flooding from a variety of sources. With many basements acting as important storage areas or extra rooms for homes or businesses, they often contain important documents, family heirlooms, valuable furniture, antiques, and other irreplaceable items requiring an expert in flooded basement cleanup services.
When a basement is flooded, you need a trusted expert to determine the extent of the water damage, safely remove the water, and start the repair and restoration process. At Advance Restoration, we can help. We are IICRC certified for flooded basement cleanup services. We use applied structural drying and water restoration techniques, and feature advanced equipment and experienced personnel to do the job in a fast, professional manner to limit further damage.
