Firefighting Water Cleanup
After a fire, firefighting water soaks ceilings, walls and floors well beyond the burned area. That water is extracted and those rooms are dried.

Emergency removal starts with stopping the water and making power safe, then extracting from the wettest areas first.
Sewage Backup Cleanup
After extraction, every surface the sewage touched is cleaned and disinfected before drying equipment goes in.
Mold Remediation Services
Drying quickly after any water loss is the main way to keep mold from starting in walls and floors.
Emergency Water Extraction
When water is spreading, pumps and extractors go in as soon as the source is shut off, pulling water from floors, carpet and low spots first.
