If your Sturtevant home or business has water in the basement, fire damage, or a mold problem, you need someone on-site fast — not a call center handoff. 911 Restoration of Southeast Wisconsin is an IICRC Certified, Veteran Owned restoration company serving Sturtevant and all of Racine County. We respond 24/7, coordinate directly with your insurance adjuster, and handle everything from emergency mitigation through full reconstruction. One call covers it all: 414-436-4647.
Sturtevant sits in a part of Racine County where the damage patterns are predictable if you've worked here long enough. Winters push hard — frozen pipes burst quietly inside walls and don't announce themselves until water is already soaking through drywall or pooling on a basement floor. Spring snowmelt combined with heavy rain overwhelms sump pumps and French drains that are already working at capacity. Roof leaks develop over months, and by the time a homeowner notices a stain on the ceiling, there's already mold working behind the drywall.
We also see fire and smoke damage that looks contained to one room but has traveled through HVAC systems and wall cavities further than most people expect. Smoke odor doesn't wipe off — it requires specific neutralization chemistry and structural cleaning. Commercial property owners along the Highway 20 corridor deal with business interruption losses on top of the physical damage, which adds a layer of urgency that residential jobs don't always carry.
Whatever brought you here, the situation is fixable. The key is moving quickly — every hour of standing water or unmitigated smoke damage extends the timeline and the cost of getting back to normal. Contact us now and we'll get someone to your property the same day.
We answer the phone every hour of every day. When you call 414-436-4647, you're talking to someone who can dispatch a crew — not a scheduling bot. For water emergencies, we aim to be on-site within 45 to 60 minutes of your call anywhere in the Sturtevant and greater Racine County area. When we arrive, we do a full walkthrough using moisture meters and thermal imaging to map exactly where water has traveled or where hidden mold is developing. You get a clear picture of the damage before any work begins.
The first job is containment. For water damage, that means extracting standing water with truck-mounted extraction units, then setting industrial air movers and dehumidifiers sized to the actual square footage of the affected area — not a one-size guess. For fire jobs, we board up openings, tarp the roof if needed, and begin removing charred material and smoke-saturated contents before secondary damage compounds the loss. Mitigation typically runs 3 to 5 days for water, longer for more complex fire or storm events. We document everything for your insurance claim as we go.
After extraction, the structure needs to dry completely before reconstruction begins — skipping this step is how you end up with mold six weeks after a repair job. We monitor moisture readings daily and adjust equipment placement based on real numbers, not assumptions. Mold remediation, when needed, follows IICRC S520 protocol — controlled containment, HEPA air scrubbing, and surface treatment before any rebuild work starts. Smoke odor is addressed with hydroxyl generators and thermal fogging, not air freshener. This phase takes honesty: we won't rush to reconstruction until the readings say it's safe to do so.
Once the structure is dry and clean, reconstruction begins. We handle drywall, flooring, cabinetry, painting — whatever was damaged. You don't need to manage separate subcontractors or chase down a general contractor. We also work directly with your insurance adjuster, providing the documentation, scopes of work, and photo evidence needed to support your claim. Learn how we handle insurance claims so you're not left navigating that process alone. The goal is to hand you back a property that looks exactly the way it did before the loss — and in many cases, better.
"We had an after hours basement flood. Connor and Joe were immediately responsive and friendly. The drying and restoration work was professionally and promptly completed. My elderly mother felt very comfortable with the crew in her home. We would definitely use their services again."- Chris K
"A mold inspector’s report revealed my house had mold in the basement, kitchen and attic. To get rid of it required a large, complicated project that had many moving pieces. Connor coordinated well with the on-site contractor ensuring everyone could work at the same time. He handled surprises along the way in stride. With a job of this size, it was natural that judgement calls on his part would need to be made. His reasoning was consistently sound. It was made evident with each check in, that he puts a priority on learning what the property owner’s wishes are and anticipates solutions. The mold inspector was brought back in at the end of the job to test if the work had been done properly. This gentleman said Connor and his crew set up containment the old school way - which he clarified as the “right way” and most other remediators don’t put in the effort to do so. He told me I was fortunate because he’d seen a lot of poor jobs throughout the years and he said I had found someone that cared to do the remediation correctly and effectively.
When that was completed I also had him do a post-remediation cleaning throughout the house. This required a lot of monotonous detailed work that was met with a great attitude - once again, with many successful judgment calls made. Throughout each step of the extended job, Connor gave good suggestions and often went out of his way to make sure I was satisfied with the results. In the final tally, Connor and Joe’s 911 Restoration put me at ease during a difficult restoration, completed the job skillfully and charged a reasonable price. I recommend them."- Reid R
Pipes don't burst at 9 a.m. on a Tuesday. Most of our emergency calls come in overnight, on weekends, or right after a storm front moves through Racine County. We maintain 24/7 live response so when you call at 2 a.m. with a flooded basement, someone answers, dispatches a crew, and gives you a realistic ETA — typically under an hour for Sturtevant addresses. No voicemail. No callback window. Just a crew en route.
IICRC certification isn't a wall decoration — it means our technicians are trained to the same standards that insurance adjusters use to evaluate whether a job was done correctly. That matters when your claim is being reviewed. Every water, fire, and mold job we run follows IICRC guidelines for drying targets, mold remediation protocols, and documentation requirements. Learn more about our certifications and background.
Dealing with a restoration claim is genuinely confusing, especially the first time. We've worked hundreds of claims through carriers that operate in Wisconsin and we know what adjusters need to approve a scope of work without delays. We prepare detailed estimates, provide daily moisture logs, photograph every stage of the job, and communicate directly with your adjuster so you're not stuck in the middle relaying information. See how our insurance process works.
911 Restoration of Southeast Wisconsin is Veteran Owned and operated right here in the region — not a remote franchise with no stake in this community. When we show up to your property in Sturtevant, we're not flying in from out of state. We work this market every week, we know the housing stock, the drainage challenges, the construction styles common to Racine County, and the local contractors and inspectors we may be coordinating with. Read what our customers say about working with a local crew that actually shows up.
Our primary service area puts Sturtevant well within our core response radius. We regularly run jobs throughout Racine County — from the residential neighborhoods of Caledonia and Mount Pleasant to commercial corridors closer to I-94. We also serve Franklin, Oak Creek, New Berlin, Waukesha County, and the Milwaukee metro. If you're not sure whether we cover your address, call 414-436-4647 and ask — we'll give you a straight answer in under a minute.
Sturtevant's mix of older residential homes and commercial properties near major transit routes means we see a wide range of damage types here. Older homes carry original plumbing that's more vulnerable to freeze events. Commercial buildings along busy corridors face both storm exposure and the added pressure of getting operational again quickly. We're built to handle both — with the same IICRC-standard process and the same 24/7 availability regardless of property type or damage category.
The longer water sits, the more it costs. The longer smoke residue is left untreated, the deeper it penetrates. The longer mold goes unaddressed, the more of the structure it claims. You don't need to figure out the next steps on your own — that's exactly what we're here for. Call 414-436-4647 right now and we'll have a crew headed your direction. Or if you'd rather start online, submit your information here and we'll call you back within minutes. Available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — including holidays.
