How Emergency 24-Hour Water Extraction Works in Smoot
-
Pull the standing water out
Furniture goes up on blocks or foil so wet carpet does not stain the legs or wick water up them. From there the crew works outward from the wettest spot, one room after another.
-
Map the moisture
A dry reading from an unaffected room sets the target. A material counts as dry when it reads close to that number.
-
Open what holds water
Category 3 water changes the rules, and porous materials it touched come out rather than dry. The crew bags drywall, pad and insulation from those areas.
-
Dry and verify
Closing a house too early is the most common drying mistake. The crew pulls equipment only once the readings fall inside the target range.
Floors still wet? Call now. (888) 902-1696
What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Category 2 and Category 3 water arrive loaded with bacteria, so the clock is even tighter. Porous items those waters touched are removed rather than dried.
- Shut off the main water valve or the fixture valve.
- Switch off electricity to wet rooms if the panel is dry.
- Stay out of standing water that might touch outlets or cords.
- Move valuables and electronics to a dry, higher spot.
- Photograph the damage while you wait.
