What is the best way to clean up water? 

Removing water can be a daunting task and should be left to professionals.

Water Cleanup is more than just vacuuming up the water.

There are numerous porous materials throughout the home and can quickly absorb the excess moisture.

According to the class and category of water damage, cleanup can range from simple vacuuming and drying to complete reconstruction projects. 

Our professionals will assess the situation and recommend the best way to clean up the water.

Water extraction can be done with either a commercial unit or other, depending on the volume of water.

Remember that water extraction is the first step in dealing with water damage. Your materials are still affected and will require additional services.

How much does it cost to remove water?

If this is a covered insurance case, zero. Insurance usually covers water damage emergency services at 100% with no deductible in most cases.

If this is a situation not covered by your carrier (which we can help you figure out), it all depends on the volume of water and where the extraction needs to occur.

These areas include a crawl space versus open flooring in a living room.

Therefore, your water cleanup service can range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand depending on the damage.

How do you mitigate water damage?

Mitigating (preventing) water damage when it occurs is simple. STOP THE LEAK SOURCE IMMEDIATELY!

If it is a plumbing leak, turn off the water to the structure.

If it is a roof leak, we have someone tarp the house as soon as possible while dealing with insurance.

Ultimately, mitigation also involves removing all the water and wet materials from your property to eliminate the threat of further spread of moisture, mold, and property damage.

Removing water from your property is usually done using a commercial-grade truck-mounted extractor to eliminate any stagnant water.

Our experts will help you analyze the specific building’s structure and weak points and propose the best water cleanup and restoration method.

How do you remove water from a house?

Without proper water removal, excess water can damage your walls, roof, landscaping, and foundation.

Depending on the damage extent and the volume of water, we can use commercial or non-commercial extraction units.

Dehumidifiers and air movers remove the rest of the moisture and dry the effect of materials that do not require removal.

How do you clean up a large amount of water?

It is essential to address everything that was touched by water immediately.

By using heavy-duty cleaners such as detergent or bleach, a mixture of hot water, and a scrub brush, and your flooring and walls, you can get rid of most of the bacteria preventing mold growth. 

Warning: Be sure not to mix ammonia and bleach because the mixture creates a deadly poisonous gas.

Beware: Be sure not to use cleansers that contain phosphorus because mold and fungi consume and grow in the presence of phosphorus.

However, if you have a large amount of water, the old-fashioned buckets and mops will not do much.

Water damage calls for an expert who will come with all the required equipment to leave your property clean and dry.

We use high-quality pumps and other vacuums to remove all the excess water from your property.

Once all the water is removed, we start the next crucial step- drying using dehumidifiers and air movement.

If everything is not adequately dried, issues that lead to longer recovery and increasing restoration might occur.

Our experts monitor the drying process through every step to ensure proper drying. We document moisture levels, offer moisture maps, and photograph drying for your insurance provider.

After drying, we go to the sanitization process, which ensures that mold and other contaminants from stagnant water are entirely removed.

How long does it take to dry out water damage?

On average, the excess water in a home will dry up on its own within a week or two.

The main issue with leaving it alone for that period is a higher risk of developing mold and other health hazards.

Typically it takes 5 – 10 days depending on several factors, including relative humidity, time of year, geographical location, etc. 

 Summary

Even though removing excess water from your home may seem practical, most jobs are best left to the experts.

Water damage left behind can lead to numerous electrical, health, and mold growth issues.

Keeping you and your family safe by eliminating these hazards and toxins is crucial.
