Pumps and extractors remove standing water from basements, first floors and crawl spaces, the first step in any flood recovery.
Standing water is the hardest enemy of a flooded home. It soaks into drywall, lifts flooring and carries contamination into everything it touches. The faster it is removed, the less there is to dry and the more can be saved.
We bring pumps, extractors and hoses sized to the volume of water, remove it in a safe order and then move straight to drying and cleaning. Flood water is usually contaminated, so we use protective gear, treat surfaces and remove porous materials that cannot be cleaned.
Flood water can hide electrical hazards, sharp debris and contamination. We check conditions first, work with proper protective equipment and keep you out of the affected area until it is safe.
Removing water from a basement too quickly can stress walls and floors against groundwater pressure outside. We pump in stages when conditions call for it.
After the water is out, we remove soaked materials, clean and treat surfaces and start structural drying so the home does not stay damp.
Turn off power only if you can reach the panel without standing in water. Avoid contact with floodwater, wear boots and gloves and keep children and pets out until the area is cleaned.
