How to Clean and Dry a Flooded Wilmette, IL Basement

Wall and All Surface Cleaner is excellent for general cleaning.

Properly cleaning and drying requires the right products and tools; at this Wilmette home with a flooded basement SERVPRO Wall and All Plus was selected for its ideal alkalinity. SERVPRO Wall and All Plus has a pH of 11-12.5 making it an excellent solvent for breaking down oils and organic dirt left behind from flooding without being overly corrosive like bleach and ammonia. Once the cleaning has been done, dehumidifiers and air movers will be used to dry everything out.

SERVPRO of Glenview was called in after the April 18th flooding event that hit the Chicagoland area to make this basement look "Just like it never even happened."
