The Clean Water Extraction (Category 1) Process for Properties in Lakewood
Standing Water Pump Out
Water is pumped to a drain or outside, away from the house, so it does not find its way back in.
Ceiling Leak Water Removal
A bulging ceiling is drained through a small opening so the weight comes off before it can fall.
Appliance Leak Water Cleanup
Clean appliance water dried quickly usually leaves cabinets and flooring in good shape. Readings confirm when the area is dry.
Hard Surface Floor Drying
Laminate and vinyl plank are checked for water trapped beneath. Planks that cupped or lifted are noted for replacement.
Wall Cavity Water Extraction
Water that soaked into the bottom of walls is reached through small holes or removed baseboards, then the cavity is dried with directed airflow.
