Restoration 1 of Waukegan: A 2025 Year in Review

As 2025 comes to a close, Restoration 1 of Waukegan reflects on a year defined by growth, strengthened partnerships, and deeper community involvement. This past year marked an important chapter in our continued commitment to providing reliable restoration, mitigation, and construction services across Northern Illinois and Southeast Wisconsin.

Expanding Our Service Area into Kenosha and Racine counties
One of the most significant milestones of 2025 was actively servicing the Kenosha, Wisconsin market. This expansion allowed us to support more homeowners, property managers, and businesses with timely water, fire, and mold restoration services. By extending our reach, we ensured faster response times and consistent service quality for our customers beyond Waukegan.

Growth in Commercial Construction and Mitigation
In 2025, we made a strategic push into commercial construction and mitigation services. From multi-unit residential properties to commercial facilities, our team successfully handled larger and more complex projects. This expansion strengthened our ability to serve property managers, building owners, and businesses that require coordinated mitigation, reconstruction, and compliance-driven solutions.

Building Strong Referral Partnerships
Another key focus this year was the development of partner referral programs with plumbers and HVAC professionals. These partnerships created a more seamless experience for property owners facing emergency losses. By collaborating closely with trusted trades, we improved response efficiency, reduced downtime, and ensured that clients received comprehensive solutions from start to finish.

Emergency Response Planning for Property Management
Recognizing the importance of preparedness, Restoration 1 of Waukegan-Kenosha worked closely with property management companies to develop customized emergency response plans. These plans help properties respond quickly and effectively to water losses, fire damage, and other emergencies, minimizing disruption for tenants and protecting long-term asset value.

Community Involvement and Local Events
Community engagement remained a priority throughout 2025. We were proud to participate in local events such as Wauktober Halloween Day, connecting with families, local businesses, and neighbors. These events allow us to give back, build relationships, and remain an active presence in the communities we serve.

Looking Ahead to 2026
The progress made in 2025 sets a strong foundation for the future. As we move into 2026, Restoration 1 of Waukegan remains focused on expanding our capabilities, strengthening partnerships, and continuing to deliver dependable, professional restoration services when our community needs us most.
