Recent work
Real photos from our own jobs.
No stock photos here. Most of these come from one house fire: the smoke and soot damage our crew walked into, then the same house a few days later, once the damaged materials came out. The last photo is from a commercial water loss.
Your choice of contractor
We dry it out. We can put it back. The choice is always yours.
Most work after a loss falls into two halves. First comes mitigation: stopping the damage, extracting water, drying the structure and removing what can't be saved. That's us, Elite Restoration Services of Iowa.
Then comes repair: drywall, flooring, cabinetry, paint, trim. If you'd like one call and one point of contact, M&B Contractor Services, an optional repair partner, can do the rebuild with the same photos, moisture logs and scope.
You choose who does your repairs.
We hand our photos, moisture logs and scope to any contractor you pick, and M&B Contractor Services is there as an easy option if you want it.
Elite Restoration Services of Iowa, LLC and M&B Contractor Services LLC have the same owners. If you need repairs or rebuilding after mitigation, M&B is one option, but you are never required to use M&B. You are free to choose any contractor, and your choice will not affect the mitigation services Elite provides. We share your information with M&B only with your permission.

Unedited reviews from Google
Don't take our word for it. Take our neighbors'.
"We had a water loss at 2 a.m. and needed someone to respond quickly. We had never used Elite before, but a friend referred them, so we gave them a call and they answered right away. They had a crew at our home within an hour."
"Patrick and team were incredible! They arrived 20 minutes after I called and quickly mitigated my water issue. They came over every day to check on the status of drying my carpet as well as my ceiling. Exceptional customer service!"
"I had a water leak in the basement and needed the landing at the bottom of the stairs replaced. Patrick came the same day to inspect and gave me a fair price. Javier Aquino replaced the subfloor, encapsulated the stair landing and wall behind the stairs. I was very happy with the results."
