How a flood cleanup goes
A flooded basement gets pumped out first. Then we pull out the carpet, pad and drywall that floodwater soaked, because those can't be cleaned well enough to keep, and sanitize what is left. Air movers and dehumidifiers dry the structure, and when the readings say it is dry our crew rebuilds. We answer 24/7 across Green Bay and Northeast Wisconsin, and the estimate is free.
Why Basements Flood
Most flooding here starts outside, when more water reaches the foundation than the ground and drains can handle. Water that comes in from outside often carries soil, sewage and chemicals, so it needs more than a mop. We see it most often with:

How It Works
From standing water to a finished basement, with one company.
Reviews
“Can’t start to give enough praise to this company. From start to finish their team was very professional and also extremely caring. Every step of the way they were attentive to our needs and did everything in their control to get our house back together after storm damage. Highly recommended in every aspect!”
“Met and exceeded expectations!”
“Very well! They were there in no time to start the clean up. We had 1 inch of water throughout the basement family room. They quoted us for basic work and gave us options to do some repairs ourselves, or they could do the work.”
“Great experience. Were able to come out the day after I called to give an estimate. Got me in their schedule when it worked best for me. The ladies that came to do the work were professional, friendly, and timely. Will certainly contact them again for any other damage needs”
“Professional, knowledgeable and thorough! We are beyond pleased with our updated bathroom and attic service. We were very pleased with how courteous all staff was with us throughout our projects. Additionally, we were impressed with how clean they left the work areas in our home after each work day was completed. We will look to Recoveron again for future work.”
“We use Recoveron quite often for smaller mold and mildew issues as well as any major water issues. Recoveron has always been very good in response as well as follow up with recommendations.”
“Recently, my office building had water backup from a 2nd floor bathroom which leaked through the walls and ceilings of the building, the damage was severe. We called Recoveron and there response time was amazing. Through the entire process of removing what was damaged, drying out period, taking care of repairs, and doing final steps- everything was professionally handled and communicated. Based on how we were taken care of, I highly recommend Recoveron”
“The service person was very good and did an excellent job.”
“Recoveron did a great job identifying, assessing, and estimating the damage to our home quickly. The project manager worked closely with our insurance company to provide an accurate estimate, then proceeded to find any specialty contractors required to complete the repair work. Once work was started, the repair was completed in a timely manner. Commination on cost was maintained well throughout the project. Recommended for difficult repair projects.”
“It went great!”
“We are happy with the work. Overall, always a great response time and awesome workers!”
“After the company we hired to repair our water damaged house had torn our house apart to dry it out, they informed us that they would not be returning to our home to repair the damage. Panic is a total understatement! We called RECOVERON. They came to assess within 48 hours and within several weeks had our house all put back together. We can’t recommend them enough. Really wish we had contacted them from the get-go.”
Cost & Insurance
Every flood is different, so we price the job after we see it, and the estimate is free.
Standard homeowners policies usually exclude flooding from outside, such as surface water, storm runoff or rising water. That coverage comes from a separate flood policy, through the NFIP or a private insurer, and flood policies often limit what they cover in basements. Water that starts inside, like a burst pipe, is usually handled under your homeowners policy, and a failed sump pump may be covered if you have a water backup endorsement.
Every policy is different, so your insurer decides what is covered. Recoveron is a preferred vendor for major insurance companies. We photograph and document the damage so your adjuster, whether homeowners or flood, has what they need.
Get a Free EstimateMost flooded basements take about 3 to 5 days to dry with professional air movers and dehumidifiers. The time depends on how much water there was, how long it sat and what got wet. Recoveron technicians check moisture levels until the structure is fully dry. Our guide explains how long it takes to dry out a flooded basement.
It can be risky. Floodwater from outside often carries sewage, soil and chemicals, so everything it soaked needs to be cleaned and sanitized, and porous materials like carpet pad and drywall usually have to be removed. Stay out of standing water near outlets or cords, and call Recoveron at 920-469-3473 for help.
Usually not, if the water came from outside. Rising water or surface runoff is usually excluded from a standard homeowners policy and needs separate flood insurance. Water from inside the home, like a burst pipe, usually is covered. Every policy is different. Recoveron is a preferred vendor for major insurance companies and can help you through the claim.
First, stay safe: stay out of standing water near outlets or cords, and stop the water at the source if you safely can. Move valuables to a dry area and take photos for your insurance claim. Then call Recoveron at 920-469-3473. The sooner drying starts, the less has to be torn out.
It depends on how much water there was, whether it was contaminated, how long it sat and how much has to be removed and rebuilt. A basement with carpet and finished walls takes more work than bare concrete. Recoveron looks at the damage first and gives you a free estimate, so you know the scope before any work starts.
Usually, when the floodwater came from outside. Carpet pad and other porous materials that soaked up contaminated water can’t be cleaned well enough to keep, and wet drywall is usually cut out above the water line so the wall behind it can dry. Hard surfaces like concrete can often be cleaned, sanitized and dried in place. We replace what was removed once everything is dry.
You can do both the same day, and you don’t need to wait for an adjuster to start protecting your home. Take photos first, then call us to stop the damage from spreading and call your insurer to open a claim. Most policies expect you to take reasonable steps to prevent further damage. We document the work so your adjuster can see what was done and why.
Most flooded basements take about 3 to 5 days to dry with professional equipment. What changes that timeline, and why "dry to the touch" is not dry.
