The Emergency Water Extraction Process for Great Falls Properties

Wet Drywall Water Removal

Small holes near the base of the wall let dry air into the cavity, which dries the studs and back of the drywall.

Emergency Flood Water Extraction

When floodwater gets inside, submersible pumps remove the deep water first, then extractors clear floors and carpet room by room.

Carpet Water Extraction Services

After extraction, the carpet is lifted so air can reach the pad and subfloor. Soaked pad is often replaced.

Flooded Basement Water Removal

Lower levels dry slowly, so drying continues until the slab and walls read normal before any repairs begin.

Emergency Water Damage Cleanup

Emergency cleanup covers the water, the wet debris and the belongings in the way, so drying equipment can be placed right away.
