Speed, Skill, and Technology Working Together
Emergencies do not wait. Paul Davis of DuPage operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with a response time of 1 to 2 hours. That speed is matched by precision. The team leverages 3D imaging, moisture mapping, and real-time job tracking to accurately document conditions, create a defensible scope, and keep customers and adjusters aligned from the first meeting to the final sign-off. IICRC-certified technicians handle mitigation and remediation, while in-house carpenters address repairs and reconstruction, ensuring work progresses smoothly without the delays that can result from chasing subcontractors.
The company’s preservation mindset is central to its process. Rather than defaulting to demolition, technicians evaluate what can be saved safely and affordably. That approach reduces disruption, controls costs, and protects the character of a home or business, whether the project involves an older bungalow with original millwork or a modern, tech-enabled property.
Clarity in a Complicated Insurance Landscape
One stressful aspect of restoration is navigating insurance. Paul Davis of DuPage manages claims communication with candor and consistency. The team documents every stage, anticipates carrier questions, and helps avoid delays, denials, and scope confusion that can stall projects. Customers appreciate the way crews explain what is happening, why it matters, and what comes next. Free inspections and estimates help set expectations early, and workmanship provides confidence long after the project wraps.
Craftsmanship You Can See, Care You Can Feel
The difference customers notice is not only technical. It is human. The company’s team reflects the diversity of DuPage County and brings empathy, cultural awareness, and clear communication to each job. That people-first approach is a recurring theme in reviews.
As customer Susan Beath wrote after her project, “If I could give Paul Davis Restorations 10 stars, I would. Gary Lyon, Project Manager, and his crew went above and beyond. In my kitchen, the old water damaged oak in front of the dishwasher was replaced and I can’t distinguish the new from the old.” She added that the crews worked smoothly, put the furniture back exactly where she wanted it, and even coordinated the return of the area rugs for a complete finish.
Another customer, Abigail Bennie, shared that working with the team under Linas’ ownership felt like a full-service, no-hassle experience. “From start to finish, the team was professional and considerate, keeping us in the loop at every step. Garry and Will stood out for their knowledge and kindness, and they handled everything directly with our insurance. The project wrapped on schedule, and the quality of work was top-notch.”
