Fast, 24/7 Disaster Response When You Need It Most

When water is still pouring in, smoke is lingering in the air, or a storm has opened part of your roof, time matters. Moisture can spread into walls and flooring, smoke residues can penetrate deep into surfaces, and unsafe conditions can develop quickly. That is why our team is available all day and night, every day of the year, to respond to property damage emergencies in this area.

When you call us, you reach a real person who will ask a few focused questions about what has happened, where the damage is, and whether anyone is at risk. We use this information to help you take any immediate safety steps you can complete, such as avoiding electrical hazards, and to send a crew with the right equipment for your situation. Our goal is to arrive as quickly as conditions, distance, and safety allow, then start mitigation work to help prevent further damage.

Montcalm County includes rural roads, small town business districts, and residential neighborhoods that can be affected by storms, heavy snow, or frozen pipes. We understand how these conditions affect travel and access, and we plan our response with those realities in mind. No matter where you are in the county, we work to respond promptly and keep you updated, so you are not left wondering when help will arrive.

Comprehensive Restoration Services For Homes & Businesses

Every property loss is different, and many involve more than one type of damage. A fire can lead to water issues from firefighting efforts. A storm can cause roof damage, interior water intrusion, and mold if moisture is not removed quickly. As a full service restoration company in Montcalm County, we are prepared to handle a wide range of situations, so you do not have to coordinate multiple contractors.

We provide disaster restoration services for:

• Water damage and flooding, including burst pipes, failed appliances, overflows, roof leaks, and flooded basements. We use professional extraction equipment, drying systems, and moisture meters to help remove water and dry affected areas.
• Fire and smoke damage, from small kitchen fires to larger structural events. We address structural cleaning, soot removal, and odor control, and we work to determine what can be cleaned and what may need repair or replacement.
• Storm and weather damage, such as wind related roof damage, siding damage, and water intrusion from heavy rains or snowmelt. We focus on temporary protection of the structure followed by interior restoration.
• Mold remediation when mold growth is discovered after a leak, flood, or chronic moisture problem. Our technicians follow established procedures to contain affected areas, remove damaged materials where appropriate, and help address the source of moisture.
• Sewage and contaminated water cleanup for backups, toilet overflows, and sump pump failures. Contaminated water requires careful handling, cleaning, and disinfection to support a safe environment.
• Biohazard cleaning for certain traumatic or hazardous situations. We approach this work with discretion, compassion, and proper safety procedures.
• Odor removal related to smoke, moisture, biological sources, and other persistent smells that remain after the visible damage is gone.

Our technicians are trained and certified to address these different types of losses using advanced equipment and proven methods. Whether you are dealing with a flooded basement in a farmhouse or smoke damage in a downtown storefront, we work to tailor our approach to your specific property and situation.

Our Step By Step Restoration Process

Uncertainty about what happens next often adds to the stress of a property loss. We follow a clear process so you know what to expect, from the first site visit through the final walkthrough. While every loss is unique, the general stages are consistent and designed to support both safety and efficiency.

Initial Inspection & Damage Assessment

First, we complete an initial inspection and assessment. Our team examines the affected areas, identifies safety concerns, and gathers information about the source and extent of the damage. We discuss our findings with you, outline the recommended steps, and talk through priorities such as protecting valuables or critical business areas.

Mitigation, Stabilization & Drying

Next, we begin mitigation and stabilization. For water damage, this may include extracting standing water and setting up drying equipment. For fire or storm damage, it may involve securing the structure, addressing damaged windows, or installing temporary weather protection. The goal in this stage is to help limit further damage and create a safer environment for detailed restoration work.

Cleaning, Restoration & Odor Control

We then move into restoration and cleaning. This stage can include removing unsalvageable materials, cleaning and disinfecting affected surfaces, addressing mold where present, and performing odor control procedures. We use techniques developed through decades of ServiceMaster Restore experience, along with modern tools such as air movers, dehumidifiers, HEPA filtration, and specialized cleaning agents.

Communication, Walkthrough & Follow Up

Throughout the job, we maintain communication and documentation. We update you on progress, explain any necessary adjustments to the plan, and document the work being completed. When restoration work is finished, we complete a final walkthrough with you to review the results and answer any remaining questions. Our team can also schedule follow up visits when appropriate to confirm conditions remain stable.

Why Property Owners Here Rely On Our Team

When your home or business has been damaged, you are trusting the restoration company you choose with your building, your belongings, and your sense of security. We take that responsibility seriously. Our approach combines long standing restoration knowledge with a local, people centered focus that is built around your needs.

We are part of the ServiceMaster Restore network, which brings more than 65 years of experience in disaster restoration. That history shapes the training our technicians receive, the systems we use to manage projects, and the methods we apply on every job. At the same time, our team works here in the community and understands how property damage affects daily life in this area.

From the first conversation, we work to listen, explain next steps in plain language, and set realistic expectations. Our goal is not only to repair structures and contents, but also to make the restoration process as manageable as possible for you. We place strong emphasis on communication, punctuality, and respect for your time and property, whether you are a homeowner or a business owner trying to keep operations moving.

We also maintain quality assurance practices that include job checks, supervisor reviews, and follow up contact. These steps support consistent service and give you an opportunity to ask questions even after the primary work is complete.

Damage Challenges Unique To This Area

Properties in and around Montcalm County face conditions that can contribute to specific types of damage. Cold winters can lead to frozen and burst pipes, especially in older homes or outbuildings that do not have consistent heat. Snowmelt and spring rains can put pressure on basements and foundations, increasing the chance of seepage or flooding.

During storm seasons, wind and heavy rain can damage roofs, siding, and windows on farmhouses, lakefront cabins, and commercial buildings in small downtown areas. When roofs are compromised, water can reach interior spaces quickly, leading to hidden moisture in insulation, wall cavities, and ceilings. If that moisture is not addressed promptly, it can contribute to mold growth and long term structural issues.

Rural properties may also use private wells and septic systems. When a septic backup or line issue occurs, the resulting contamination requires careful cleanup and disinfection to help support a safe environment. Our team is familiar with these conditions and plans projects with local building styles, access routes, and seasonal weather in mind.

By understanding how the local climate and property types contribute to water, fire, and other damage, we can recommend practical steps for mitigation and tailor our restoration plans. This local knowledge supports more efficient work and helps reduce surprises during the recovery process.

How We Support You Through Every Stage Of Recovery

Restoration is not only about equipment and techniques. It is also about how you are treated while your space is being repaired. We keep that in mind on every job. From the first phone call, we aim to provide steady guidance, so you are not left guessing about what is happening in your own property.

Our team explains what we are doing, why we are doing it, and what you can expect next. We know you may have questions about access to specific rooms, noise levels, schedules, or how the work may affect your family or business operations. We encourage you to ask those questions and take the time to provide clear answers.

We are careful with belongings, whether they are family heirlooms, business records, or everyday items that matter to you. When items can be cleaned and restored, we work to do so. When something must be discarded, we explain why, based on safety, contamination, or structural concerns. Throughout the process, we strive to respect your privacy and your space.

Our involvement does not stop when the last piece of equipment is removed. We check in, confirm that you understand what was completed, and discuss any remaining needs. Our goal is that you not only have a restored property, but also feel informed and supported from start to finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Fast Can Your Team Get To My Property?

We respond to emergency calls at all hours and work to arrive as quickly as possible. Actual arrival times depend on factors such as your location within the county, weather and road conditions, and the severity of regional events. During widespread storms, for example, we may prioritize situations where active water intrusion or safety hazards are present. When you call, we provide an estimated timeframe based on current conditions and keep you updated if that changes.

Is It Safe For My Family To Stay In The Home After Water Or Fire Damage?

Whether it is safe to stay in your home depends on the type and extent of the damage. Significant water intrusion, structural damage, heavy smoke residues, or contamination from sewage can create conditions that are not suitable for occupancy. During our initial assessment, we look for electrical risks, structural concerns, air quality issues, and signs of contamination. We then discuss our findings with you and explain any safety recommendations, so you can make informed decisions about staying or temporarily relocating.

Will You Work With My Insurance Company During The Restoration?

We document the damage and the restoration work we perform, and we can share that information with you to support your communication with your insurance company. Many property owners choose to provide our estimates, photos, and job notes to their insurer as part of their claim. The specific way a claim is handled depends on the insurance carrier, the policy, and the details of the loss. We encourage you to contact your insurance representative for guidance on coverage and claim procedures, and we are available to answer questions about the work we perform.

How Long Does The Restoration Process Usually Take?

Restoration timelines vary based on the type of damage, how large the affected area is, and whether structural repairs are needed. Drying after a typical water loss can take several days, while more extensive projects that involve demolition, rebuilding, and detailed cleaning can take weeks or longer. During our assessment, we provide a general range for your situation and update you if that estimate changes due to hidden damage, material availability, or other factors we identify once work begins.

Can Your Team Handle Both Cleanup & Repairs?

We provide a wide range of services that cover initial cleanup, drying, and detailed restoration of affected areas. Many property owners prefer having a single team involved because it can simplify scheduling and communication. The exact scope of what we complete on your project depends on the damage and on the specific services requested. During the planning stage, we explain which parts of the restoration we will handle and discuss any areas where additional trades or resources may be needed.

What Should I Do Before Your Technicians Arrive?

If it is safe to do so, you can take a few simple steps before we arrive. For water incidents, turning off the main water supply can help limit additional damage. Avoid using electrical appliances in wet areas and stay away from sagging ceilings or visibly damaged structures. Do not attempt to clean soot, disturb mold, or handle sewage contaminated items, since this can spread residues or create health risks. Once you are safe and have called us, you can focus on personal needs while we prepare to address the property damage.

How Do You Protect My Belongings During Restoration?

We start by identifying items that are most important to you, such as valuables, documents, and sentimental belongings. When practical, we move items out of affected areas or protect them with coverings while work is performed. In some cases, we may suggest a pack out, which involves carefully packing and moving items to another location for cleaning and storage. We handle belongings with care, document what is moved, and discuss options with you, so you understand how items will be protected throughout the project.
