Our basement flooded at 2 AM, and Des Moines Damage Mitigation Pros were here within the hour. Their quick response saved our finished basement from much worse damage. They got the water out fast and started the drying process immediately.
The crew that worked on our kitchen after the pipe burst was so respectful and polite. They explained every step and kept the work area incredibly tidy, even taping off the unaffected parts of the house to minimize dust.
Excellent communication throughout the entire process. I always knew what was happening with the water damage in our living room and when they would be on site. No surprises.
They were transparent about all the costs involved with drying out our office building's carpet. The estimate was clear, and there were no hidden fees when the final bill came.
Des Moines Damage Mitigation Pros handled all the insurance paperwork for our damaged hardwood floors. It made a stressful situation much easier to manage.
