Clean Water Extraction (Category 1) Methods Used in Hester

Wet Carpet Water Extraction

Carpet pad is checked after extraction. Pad soaked through is often replaced, while the carpet above is floated and dried.

Appliance Leak Water Cleanup

A washer, dishwasher, refrigerator line or water heater leak is shut off, and the clean water is extracted from the floor and under nearby cabinets.

Ceiling Leak Water Removal

Clean water dripping through a ceiling from a pipe or fixture above is drained, and wet drywall and insulation are removed where needed.

Clean Water Removal From Flooring

Floors are dried until readings match unaffected areas, so new flooring or refinishing does not trap moisture.

Furniture sitting in wet areas can stain carpet and swell at the legs, and should be moved or blocked up.
