After Hours Water Removal Services in Cortez
Flooded Carpet Water Removal
Wet carpet is lifted at the edges so air can reach the pad and subfloor. Pad that soaked up dirty water is pulled out and discarded.
Sewage Backup Water Extraction
Porous items touched by sewage, such as carpet, pad and drywall, are usually removed. Hard surfaces are cleaned and sanitized after extraction.
Ceiling Leak Water Removal
Ceiling leaks from a bathroom or attic are traced to the source, and the drywall and insulation are dried or replaced as needed.
Emergency Water Extraction
Extraction removes the bulk of the water from carpet, hard floors and low spots. Every gallon pulled out now is a gallon the dehumidifiers do not have to remove later.
Emergency Structural Drying Services
Air movers and dehumidifiers are placed to dry walls, floors and framing. Daily moisture readings show when each area reaches its normal level.
