The Emergency Water Extraction Process for Convent Properties

Emergency Water Damage Cleanup

Help is available any hour, because cleanup that waits until morning usually means more materials to remove.

Standing Water Removal

Standing water spreads under walls and into the next room. Extraction follows it until every wet floor is cleared.

Burst Pipe Water Extraction

The burst section is noted and photographed for the plumber while the water is removed and the house is dried.

Wet Drywall Water Removal

Drywall that wicked up water is checked with a meter. Lightly damp drywall can be dried in place, while soaked drywall is cut out.

When floodwater gets inside, submersible pumps remove the deep water first, then extractors clear floors and carpet room by room.
