Emergency Situations We Handle

Experiencing Water, Fire, or Mold Damage in Akron?

Time-sensitive damage requires immediate attention. The longer water sits, the worse the damage becomes. Here are common emergencies our restoration specialists help with daily.

πŸ’§

Burst Pipes & Pipe Leaks

Frozen pipes, old plumbing, and sudden failures can flood rooms in minutes. Water spreads quickly through walls and floors.

🌊

Flooded Basement

Heavy rains, sump pump failures, and foundation cracks lead to basement flooding. Standing water damages belongings and promotes mold.

🏠

Roof & Ceiling Leaks

Storm damage, missing shingles, and ice dams allow water intrusion through ceilings, damaging insulation and drywall.

🚿

Appliance Overflow

Washing machines, water heaters, and dishwashers can overflow or leak, causing significant water damage to flooring and cabinets.

πŸ”₯

Fire & Smoke Damage

Kitchen fires, electrical fires, and heating accidents leave behind smoke residue, soot, and structural damage requiring professional cleanup.

🦠

Visible Mold Growth

Black spots on walls, musty odors, and fuzzy growth indicate mold colonies that can spread rapidly and affect air quality.

πŸ’¨

Musty Odors

Persistent musty smells often indicate hidden moisture or mold behind walls, under floors, or in crawl spaces.

🧱

Wet Drywall & Flooring

Soaked drywall, warped hardwood, and saturated carpet require rapid extraction and drying to prevent permanent damage.

Our basement flooded during a heavy storm and I was panicking. I called ProGuard and the person on the phone was calm and helpful. They asked me exactly what was happening and connected me with a local team the same day. They walked me through everything and made a stressful situation manageable.

I noticed a musty smell in our bathroom and wasn't sure what to do. When I called, they asked good questions about the smell, if there was visible mold, and if we'd had any recent water issues. Turned out we had hidden mold from a slow leak. Very professional experience.

Had a pipe burst in our kitchen while we were at work. Water everywhere. Called ProGuard and they asked me to describe exactly where the water was and if it was still coming. They got someone out quickly and the technician knew exactly what to do. Really appreciate how responsive they were.
