What does apartment water extraction involve?
Stopping the source, pumping standing water, extracting carpet and hard floors, then checking walls and subfloors with meters and drying what is still wet.

As soon as you find the water. It can reach the unit below within hours, and materials wet for a day or more often need replacing.
