Flooded Basement Water Removal

A flooded lower level is pumped out, then carpet, pad and wet drywall are extracted or removed and the space is dried with dehumidifiers.

Emergency Flood Water Extraction

Pumping starts at the lowest point of the flooded area and continues until no standing water remains anywhere inside.

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.
