Residential and Commercial Restoration
Water damage due to frozen pipes bursting is a frustrating problem that needs urgent fixing. In Crystal Lake, IL and the surrounding areas, winter is a time in which temperatures are exceptionally low, which makes the risk for frozen pipes high. Low temperatures can cause water inside the pipes to freeze, especially if the pipes are not insulated. The pressure caused by the ice within the pipes can lead to a burst, and excess water damage can occur.
Nu-Gen Cleaning & Restoration provides frozen pipe damage restoration services for properties affected by burst pipes in the Crystal Lake, IL area. With professional help from our technicians, water will be extracted from the property and the affected areas will be dried and restored.
How do Pipes Burst?
There are a number of causes of pipe bursts such as wear and tear and improper installation, but frozen pipes are the most common cause. When the outside temperatures are low, it can cause the water within your pipes to freeze, especially pipes in uninsulated areas like attics and basements. The ice within the pipe will expand and the pressure it causes will eventually lead to a pipe burst. Pipe bursts can spill an extensive amount of water in your home and quickly cause serious damage.
Burst Pipe Water Restoration
Water from a burst pipe can cause significant damage within a home because it quickly penetrates the surrounding furnishings and building materials. Materials that absorb the water are at risk for staining, corrosion, and warping and for structural materials like wood and drywall, there is a major risk for structural damage.
Mold growth is another problem that can occur with major water damage. Mold spores thrive when they have a source of moisture, and the presence of mold growth will only make the damage worse. Calling our professionals immediately for frozen pipe restoration is the best way to help limit the damage and prevent mold growth.
Our technicians at Nu-Gen Cleaning & Restoration have the expertise and equipment to address water damage of any scale. Excess water and moisture will be removed using our advanced water extraction equipment and we will set up air dryers and dehumidifiers to thoroughly dry wet areas and materials. Once the water is removed and the area is dried, we will clean and restore the area and check for mold growth.
Our professionals are highly trained and knowledgeable to assist you in a short duration. Please call us at (815) 569-0702, as we are available 24/7 for emergency frozen pipe restoration in Crystal Lake, IL.

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.
