Back in September of '09 we had a flood in our home.  9000 gallons of water and a couple of days later there was a lot of damage done.  We were lucky enough to find a company called PuroClean to help us out with the damage.  Their response time was phenomenal, and they took great care to save our belongings while getting their job done.  Write this number down - you may not be as lucky as I was to have someone who just happened to know someone.  They do recovery work for water and fire damage, and may do other kinds of recovery work as well.  PuroClean, 630-653-7876.  Buddy Lee is one of the owners and will do a great job for you.
