How A Water Call Plays Out

This shows us drying the carpet in place at the home. We use a technique called floating which allows air flow to reach both sides of the carpet.

After you experience water damage one may wonder exactly what has to happen next. Typically once our homeowners contact their insurance company they will reach out to receive our services. We are run an on call service and have technicians ready to go at all times. After we arrive our highly trained technicians will thoroughly examine the affected areas to find exactly what is all damaged by the water. After a good evaluation we start up the truck mount to extract any water that we can. Afterwards comes the demo, some material we can in fact dry, while others always have to be removed. Majority of the time baseboard is detached, drywall is removed, and the floor is removed. However, if it is carpet as long as it can be re-stretched, we will dry the carpet in place at the home. After all the affected materials are removed, we will set up our drying air equipment that will remained in the home until the drying is complete. A standard water damage usually finishes up drying anywhere between 3-5 days.
