Restoration in a mining-heritage city
A desert climate doesn’t stop water finding its way in. A failed hot water system, a split pipe or a summer storm can soak a home just as easily here as on the coast.
Through Water Damage Restoration and Structural Drying, in line with IICRC S500, a wet home gets dried out properly rather than just mopped. Water Leak Detection and Dehumidifier Hire are part of the same service.
Fire, smoke and mould
We carry out Fire & Smoke Restoration in line with IICRC S700. On the mould side there’s Mould Inspection & Testing, Mould Removal & Remediation and Air Quality Testing, and remediation is carried out in line with IICRC S520.
Sample testing is done through NATA-accredited laboratory partners.
Hazards and harder jobs
- Lead Paint Removal
- Meth Testing & Decontamination
- Trauma & Crime Scene Cleaning
- Deceased Estate Clearing
- Hoarding & Squalor Cleaning
These are the jobs that need patience and discretion as much as equipment.
Covering the far west
Our area takes in Broken Hill itself, from the Line of Lode to the Living Desert Sculptures, as well as the towns of Wilcannia, Menindee and White Cliffs. Distances out here are long, which is exactly why reporting matters. Nobody wants to wait days to hear whether a ceiling can be saved.
Staying informed from a distance
Out here, knowing what’s going on matters. We report live from site, scopes and quotes are prepared onsite, and our targets include an initial report and a scope or quote within 24 hours, with monitoring on alternate days after that.
If your insurer is involved, we liaise with them on the claim, and our 7-Day EOL (End-of-Loss) project life cycle is built to close the loss out end to end.
What customers say
A Google review from Ruby Leach, after a pipe burst in their ceiling: “Guosheng worked tirelessly to ensure the drying process went as smooth as possible, even working until the evening on a Friday to ensure our walls would be dry and safe over the weekend!”
Elite Restoration is part of the Elite group, and the Elite brand has been operating since 1984.
