💧 Our Simple Multi-Step Process for Water Cleanup & Property Drying
1. Emergency
Response
We’re available 24/7 to respond quickly and stop the damage from spreading. Immediate action helps minimize cost, disruption, and health risks.
2. Detailed Inspection & Damage Assessment
Our certified technicians evaluate the source, category, and extent of the water damage. We use thermal imaging and moisture meters to detect hidden water.
3. Water
Extraction
We use high-powered equipment to remove standing water fast. The goal is to prevent further structural damage and mold growth.
4. Controlled Demolition
(if needed)
If materials like drywall or flooring are too saturated to save, we remove them carefully. This ensures the structure can dry out properly and safely.
5. Drying & Dehumidification
Industrial-grade air movers and dehumidifiers are placed strategically to dry all affected areas. We monitor moisture levels daily to ensure proper drying.
6. Cleaning & Antimicrobial Treatment
We clean, sanitize, and treat the space with EPA-registered antimicrobial solutions. This helps prevent microbial growth and removes any lingering contaminants.
7. Continuous Monitoring & Documentation
We document every step, including moisture readings and progress photos. This detailed reporting is shared with you and your insurance provider.
8. Restoration & Repairs
(if needed)
Once everything is dry and clean, we can handle any repairs—from drywall to flooring to complete reconstruction. We bring your property back to pre-loss condition, or better.
