How this service works

When you call

1. Your call to (847) 000-0000 is answered by, or forwarded through, a third-party call routing / referral network.
2. The network connects you with an independent water damage provider that has chosen to serve your area. Which provider you reach can depend on your location, the time and availability.
3. You speak with that provider directly. Pricing, scheduling, contracts, warranties and the work itself are entirely between you and the provider.

How this site makes money

Providers and/or the referral network pay this site for qualified calls. That's why the call is free to you. Being paid for referrals doesn't mean any provider is endorsed, licensed, insured or reviewed by this site.

Calls may be recorded

Calls may be recorded and monitored by the call routing network and/or the provider for quality, billing and dispute purposes. See the privacy policy.

Before you hire anyone

• Ask for proof of liability insurance and workers' compensation.
• For plumbing work, confirm an Illinois plumbing license. Illinois licenses plumbers through the Department of Public Health.
• Get a written estimate and signed contract. Don't pay in full up front.
• Check with your insurer before major work begins.
• Check your municipality's permit requirements. Overhead sewer and plumbing changes generally need permits.
