The Emergency Water Extraction Process for Paterson Properties
Standing Water Removal
Standing water spreads under walls and into the next room. Extraction follows it until every wet floor is cleared.
Sewage Backup Cleanup
Sewage that backed up through drains or toilets is extracted with protective gear, and the area is contained from clean rooms.
Flooded Basement Water Removal
A flooded lower level is pumped out, then carpet, pad and wet drywall are extracted or removed and the space is dried with dehumidifiers.
Emergency Flood Water Extraction
Pumping starts at the lowest point of the flooded area and continues until no standing water remains anywhere inside.
