What Makes Janesville and Beloit Different
Janesville and Beloit both sit on the Rock River, which runs south through the middle of each city toward Illinois. Spring snowmelt and heavy rain raise the river, and homes on low ground near the water flood first. Floodwater from outside is always contaminated, and a standard homeowners policy does not cover it.
Winters are long and cold. Pipes in exterior walls, garages and crawlspaces freeze and split, and the leak often shows up when things warm up. Ice dams form on homes with little attic insulation and push meltwater into ceilings and walls.
Most homes have basements, and spring thaw raises groundwater that seeps in along the walls. A sump pump with a battery backup prevents a lot of damage. Summer storms bring heavy rain, hail and strong wind. Many older homes near both downtowns were built before 1978, so test for lead paint and asbestos before any demolition.

Checking a License in Janesville and Beloit
Wisconsin credentials dwelling contractors through the Department of Safety and Professional Services, and a contractor who pulls a building permit for work on a one or two family home needs that credential. Ask for it and look it up with the state before you sign.
On the Illinois side, there is no statewide license for general contractors, although roofers need a state license. Many cities keep their own contractor license or registration, so ask for the one that fits your town and check it with the local building department. Neither state has a separate mold license, so ask whether the technicians hold industry certification in water damage and mold remediation, and ask for proof of liability and workers compensation insurance. For older homes, ask whether the crew is certified for lead safe renovation.
