Nu-Gen Cleaning & Restoration
Frozen pipes are a common problem during the winter and if frozen pipes end up bursting, they can result in serious damage in your home. The cold winter weather in the Chicago area puts the pipes in your home at risk of freezing, especially pipes in uninsulated areas. If a pipe bursts, the resulting damage can be severe as gallons of water will spill into your property and damage the surrounding areas and materials.
Nu-Gen Cleaning & Restoration provides frozen pipe damage restoration in Cary, IL to restore the water damage caused by a burst pipe. Our professionals use the proper equipment to remove excess water and moisture and we will dry and restore the damaged areas.
What Causes Pipes to Burst?
A pipe burst can be caused by several different things from improper installation to damage or wear and tear of the pipe. The most common cause of pipe bursts, especially in cold climate areas, is frozen pipes. Pipes can freeze when cold enough conditions cause the water within the pipe to turn to ice and the ice will continue to expand, putting pressure on the pipe. The pressure will eventually cause a burst and gallons of water will spill out of the pipe and into your property. If the water damage caused by the burst is not addressed, there is a high risk of structural damage or mold growth.
Frozen Pipe Restoration
The amount of water that spills out of a burst pipe can cause considerable property damage. Porous materials like flooring, carpeting, drywall, and wood will absorb the water and allow it to spread further. The materials that take on the water can become warped and corroded and when structural materials like wood and drywall absorb too much water, your home can experience serious structural damage.
Extensive water damage is also likely to cause mold growth as mold needs a source of moisture to form. The presence of mold will make the damage worse and create a more dangerous environment. It is best to call our professionals immediately after a pipe burst to stop the spread of the water and restore the damage.
At Nu-Gen Cleaning & Restoration, we can provide complete water damage restoration in the aftermath of a burst pipe. Our professionals will remove the water and dry the affected areas using advanced water extraction and drying equipment. After the water is removed, we will restore the damage and address any mold growth if necessary.

I had a pipe freeze and burst at my home in the very early hours of Christmas Eve, around midnight. The water damaged my kitchen and went into my basement as well. I called Nu-Gen around 2:00am and Olga answered the phone and set up an appointment for me for the same day, between 8:30-9:30. After calling my insurance company, they said they would send out their own mitigation service so I cancelled my appointment with Nu-Gen. Well, the service that my insurance company contracted never showed up, but to my surprise Olga called me that afternoon to check on things and make sure I was okay. I was incredibly grateful for her checking on me because my insurance company failed me at that point. Later that afternoon Moises, the project manager, came out to assess the situation. They immediately set up the mitigation process and during the next couple of weeks, Moises - and his wonderful crew - Jose and Joey, were out several times to check on the progress of the drying and mitigation process. I am forever grateful for Nu-Gen's help and guidance throughout this entire process. I've recommended their services to my insurance company as well so that they could now have a reliable mitigation service to use in the area and I also expect to use Nu-Gen for the reconstruction work as well.
Jose and Leti were wonderful, a third gentleman came to assist, I didn't get his name but they worked well together to solve a tricky dryer vent issue. After spending over an hour cleaning a vent that was no longer in use from second floor( unbeknownst to all of us) we learned previous owners rerouted out the roof. Not once did they act like they were annoyed by this discovery. Very professional and very friendly. I cannot recommend them enough. Great Job Nu-Gen.
