Protect Your Property with Complete Water Removal
Water that is not removed quickly can seep into floors, walls, furniture, and structural framing. This can lead to warping, staining, mold growth, and long-term structural problems. Our team is trained and equipped to handle both small and large water emergencies in residential and commercial properties across the City of Chicago and the surrounding Illinois counties of Lake, Cook, DuPage, Kane, McHenry, and Will.
We combine powerful extraction equipment with detailed structural drying and cleaning so your property is not only dry on the surface, but also dry where it matters most, inside building materials and hidden cavities. As a family-owned and operated company, we work carefully and efficiently to clean up any destruction that is present in your home or on your land, and we take the time to explain what is happening and what needs to be done so you always know where you stand.

What Our Water Extraction Process Includes
When you call GreenStar HomePro, our technicians arrive with professional-grade extraction and drying equipment ready to work. We start by assessing the source and category of the water, the affected areas, and any safety concerns. Then we remove standing water from floors, carpets, and other surfaces using high-powered extractors.
Next, we set up air movers and dehumidifiers for structural drying. This helps pull moisture out of carpets, padding, subfloors, drywall, and framing. During this phase, we monitor moisture levels and adjust equipment until acceptable dry standards are reached. If materials are too damaged to safely save, we can remove wet carpet, damaged drywall, and insulation and prepare your property for rebuild.
Our water extraction services can be paired with:
• Mold inspection and mold removal
• Carpet and upholstery cleaning
• Tile and grout cleaning, bathroom tile cleaning, and tile mold cleaning
• Area rug cleaning with convenient pickup and delivery
• Drywall installation, painting, and related repairs
Complete Cleaning, Drying, and Restoration Services
Water extraction is often just the first step in restoring your home or business. Water damage repair services have been fundamental to our company since its beginning, and we are proud of our attention to detail and efficiency. GreenStar HomePro offers a full range of cleaning and restoration services so you do not have to coordinate multiple contractors.
If water has affected your flooring, we can provide carpet cleaning, removal of damaged carpet, and cleaning of tile and grout to restore a clean, fresh surface throughout the space. Our upholstery and area rug cleaning services help save furniture and soft goods that can often be restored instead of replaced. For bathrooms, kitchens, and other damp areas, we provide bathroom tile cleaning and tile mold cleaning to remove buildup and help reduce future issues.
When walls and ceilings are damaged, our team can install new drywall and complete professional painting so the affected areas blend seamlessly with the rest of your property. For properties with potential mold concerns, our licensed and certified technicians can perform mold inspection and mold removal as part of the overall restoration plan.
To help you understand the impact of our work, we can provide before and after photos of our services whenever possible, including water extraction, tile and grout cleaning, area rug and upholstery cleaning, and repairs, so you can clearly see the difference.
