Our basement flooded after a pipe burst overnight. Cleveland Damage Cleanup Pros arrived within 45 minutes, which was a huge relief. They got straight to work extracting the water and setting up drying equipment. Their quick response saved our carpet and drywall from more extensive damage.
The team that came to handle the water damage in our kitchen was incredibly professional. They were respectful of our home, answered all our questions patiently, and kept the work area contained and tidy throughout the entire process.
I was really impressed with how clean the work site was every day. They had to tear out some damaged flooring in our living room, but they always swept up and organized their tools before leaving. Made a stressful situation much more manageable.
Excellent communication about our burst hot water tank. They kept us informed every step of the way.
When our ceiling caved in from a leak, I was worried about hidden costs. Cleveland Damage Cleanup Pros provided a clear, itemized estimate upfront for the entire drying and repair process. No surprises, which I truly appreciated during a tough time.
