The Water Extraction Process
Our systematic water extraction process ensures thorough water removal while protecting your property:
Assessment and Safety Check: We begin by assessing the extent of water damage and checking for safety hazards including electrical risks and structural concerns before starting extraction.
Water Category Classification: We identify whether the water is clean, gray, or black water to determine the appropriate extraction methods and safety precautions needed.
Strategic Water Removal: Using the most appropriate extraction equipment, we systematically remove standing water starting with the deepest areas and working methodically through all affected spaces.
Content Protection: During extraction, we move and protect salvageable furniture and belongings, using plastic sheeting and other protective measures to prevent additional damage.
Moisture Detection: After visible water removal, we use professional moisture meters and thermal imaging to detect hidden water in walls, floors, and other building materials.
Final Extraction: We complete the process with detailed extraction of residual moisture from carpets, padding, and other materials that have absorbed water.
Why Professional Water Extraction is Essential
While it might be tempting to attempt water removal yourself, professional water extraction offers several critical advantages. Our industrial-grade equipment can remove water much faster and more thoroughly than household tools. We also have the expertise to identify hidden water that could lead to mold growth and structural problems if left untreated. Additionally, we follow industry standards for safety, particularly when dealing with contaminated water or electrical hazards.
Professional water extraction also provides proper documentation for insurance claims and ensures that all water removal is completed to industry standards, which can be crucial for warranty coverage and future property value.
