EMERGENCY WATER EXTRACTION

We work quickly to minimize damage caused by flooding or leaks. The goals of water extraction are not only to limit structural and property damage but also to:

  • Reduce the risk of permanent damage to personal belongings and building materials.

  • Prevent mold growth, which can present serious health hazards.

MITIGATION

Once the water extraction process is complete, water mitigation begins. This phase focuses on preventing further damage and restoring a safe environment. Depending on the severity of the water damage, the mitigation process may include:

  • Removing materials that cannot be salvaged.

  • Taking out compromised structures such as drywall, flooring, and upholstered furniture.

  • Cleaning and disinfecting all affected areas.

  • Deodorizing the space to eliminate any residual odors.

  • Throughly drying structural components using specialized equipment.

  • Performing moisture and humidity testing to ensure all issues have been fully resolved.*

Together, these processes ensure a thorough response to water damage- protecting your property and health while laying the groundwork for full restoration.
