24/7 Water Removal Services
Why Immediate Action is Crucial
When dealing with flooding, leaks, or overflows, fast water removal is key. The faster the water is removed, the less time and cost it takes to dry the area. If left untreated, water can seep into walls and materials, leading to mold growth and more extensive damage.
How Water Spreads:
- Water wicks up walls, sometimes rising 2-3 feet or more
- Infrared thermal imaging detects how far water has traveled and what areas are affected
- Delays in removal can lead to longer drying times and higher costs

Drying Flooded Homes: What to Know
Safety First
When entering a flooded house, prioritize safety:
- Turn off power if standing water is present
- Electrical appliances like water heaters can pose shock hazards
- If in doubt, contact an electrician to ensure the area is safe
Locate the Water Source
If the source of water is unknown, professionals like roofers or plumbers may be needed. Infrared thermal cameras can trace the water’s path and help find the source.
Water Extraction and Drying
Once the water source is handled, start water extraction:
- Remove standing water from floors, carpets, and rugs
- Quick action is important to prevent water from soaking further into walls, trim, and framing
Speed Up the Drying Process
Accelerate drying by controlling air movement and humidity:
- Use high-speed fans to send moisture into the air
- Dehumidifiers capture the moisture, directing it into nearby drains
- Operate hydroxyl generators to stop mold and bacteria growth
- HEPA air scrubbers collect airborne contaminants during the drying process
