Trusted Water Extraction and Structural Drying Specialists

From a small pipe leak to catastrophic flooding, water can damage the foundation, floors, and walls of your home or business, not to mention the belongings inside. And mold growth can begin in a couple days.   

There’s not a minute to lose. Quick response can keep a bad, potentially hazardous situation from getting worse. At SERVPRO, water extraction (also known as water removal) is a key part of our water damage restoration process. Using powerful pumps and truck-mounted vacuum units, we can quickly remove hundreds or thousands of gallons of water.  

From there, structural drying begins. Using the latest drying systems, from targeted heat to controlled airflow, we’ll make sure your property is dried to the industry standard to maintain structural stability and avoid further damage.

Why Water Extraction and Structural Drying?

Water extraction is exactly what it sounds like: removing excess water from your home or business after a water emergency like a flood, leak, or backup. Structural drying removes any excess, hidden moisture that has been absorbed by structural components throughout the home.  Water extraction and structural drying are essential to:

Prevent Mold Growth

Mold can start growing in just 24 to 48 hours. Once that growth begins, spores can spread quickly, leading to health risks and expensive cleanup and restoration.

Minimize Structural Damage

Standing water can weaken the structural integrity of your home or business. This can make your floors, walls, and ceilings warp, deteriorate, and even collapse. Structural repairs can be extremely expensive and disruptive.

Prevent Odors

Thoroughly drying your home after water damage will reduce the chances of unhealthy mold and mildew, along with the persistent musty smells that come with them.

Preserve Your Belongings

After a water-related event, your furniture, electronics, valuables, and important papers can be damaged or ruined. It’s important to get the contents of your home out of harm’s way.

Many times, home emergencies happen on a weekend or the middle of the night. Ours was both. It happened early on a Saturday morning at 1230 am on February 7, 2026. We discovered the hot water valve to our washer malfunctioned and leaked water onto the laundry room floor behind our washing machine and went undetected for we don't know how long. The water leaked through the ceiling of our garage directly below the laundry room. We contacted SERVPRO Highland/North Redlands and Csaba arranged for a water mitigation crew to come out later that morning to set up the necessary dehumidifiers. Iris, SERVPRO's Office Manager, stayed on top of things throughout our entire dealings with SERVPRO by always updating us and coordinating the times for their specific services. A crew returned a few days later to remove the humidifiers and fans. Arrangements were made through Iris for a crew to begin demolition and antimicrobial treatment of the affected areas of our laundry room and garage. The workers Chris, Joel, and Marvin were all friendly and polite, clean-cut and well-groomed, arrived on time, explained the work they were performing, hauled away all debris and cleaned up the areas they worked in. Csaba's rates are very reasonable. I would hire Csaba and his SERVPRO Highland/North Redlands Crew again and will be recommending him to my family, friends, and neighbors.

The "demo" team- (Chris, Freddy, Luis, Chuy and Iris) earned the 5 star rating. They worked clean and professional, but also were very helpful and accommodating. Iris was also very friendly and prompt to respond to our concerns. During this stressful time they were empathetic and comforting.

Gustavo did a very good job. We appreciated his prompt replies whenever we called him as well. Gustavo was always professional and polite. Also, Servpro did a great job servicing our home for the water damage issue. Csaba gave us a reasonable estimate for all the work done, especially for our backsplash. Thanks again to Csaba, Gustavo, and the entire Servpro team. I'd like to add that Monique was always so kind and courteous on the phone when I had a question or needed assistance with anything.

Gustavo and his brother did a magnificent job putting our library cabinets back together after they were all removed from major water damage. Gustavo custom built and replaced parts which were destroyed. He installed new lights which were in the cabinets and the molding around cabinets blended in perfectly. Gustavo and brother took pride in their workmanship and deservedly so. The knowledge, professionalism, and great attitude they displayed did not go unnoticed by my wife or me. Well Done and Thank You Gustavo and Brother for all the time and effort you two put into get our library looking beautiful again.

Servpro of Highland/ North Redlands was referred to us by a friend from our church. The office and field workers were all very helpful throughout the entire process and were very responsive. They even helped us open up a claim. I’d rate Servpro of Highland/ North Redlands 5/5 stars. I’d definitely recommend them to a friend, family member or anyone who needs their type of services.

This was my first experience using a restoration company and I have to say Csaba and his crew are the best ever!!! My house flooded they were out the same day to dry everything up. The next day they were out to test for everything. The team worked so quickly to get everything done. Gustavo was very helpful and assured everything will be ok. This company gave me a big relief when all this happened and I am so happy with the out come of my home. You guys did a great job and was quick to get my children and I back into our home. Thank you very much.

Csaba and his team did a phenomenal job on repairing my condo. They wasted no time in pretty much renovating the entire place. Extremely professional, personable, and great all around. Thank you so much for making my place beautiful and intact.

SERVPRO Water Extraction & Structural Drying Knowledge Center

What equipment does SERVPRO use for water extraction?

When it comes to water extraction, SERVPRO technicians have both the very latest and the tried-and-true at their disposal: 

  • Moisture detectors, hygrometers, and other meters measure the extent of moisture saturation. 
  • Infrared cameras find “hidden” water behind walls and ceilings. 
  • Submersible and gas-powered pumps are used for continuous pumping of high-level water. 
  • Truck-mounted and portable extraction units perform efficient water removal. 
After water damage, how long does it take for mold to grow?

It’s important to begin water extraction and drying immediately, since mold growth can begin just 24-48 hours after water was introduced to your home.

What’s a sump pump and what does it do?

A sump pump is a mechanical pump, often placed in a basement or crawlspace, to remove water as it accumulates in a sump pit. As the water level rises, it trips a float switch, turns on the pump, and sends the excess water away from the structure. Sump pumps help keep your basement dry and protect your home from water damage.

How long does water extraction take?

In most residential cases, water extraction takes one to three days. It depends on factors such as: 

  • The water source 
  • The amount of water 
  • How much of the home is affected 
  • Affected materials in the home like carpet, furniture, and drywall
What drying equipment does SERVPRO use?

SERVPRO technicians use industrial-grade dehumidifiers to help prevent secondary water damage like swelling and warping of floors, walls, and furniture. They use high-speed air movers to create airflow across walls, carpets, pads, and furniture, in order to accelerate the evaporation of moisture. Moisture mapping is also used to locate hidden areas that need drying. 

After water removal, how long does it take to dry out a home?

The drying process begins after standing water is removed. Drying typically takes three days to a week. But it can take longer, depending on:  

  • Type of material: wood, drywall, and other porous materials soak up more moisture and take longer to dry.  
  • Humidity levels: the higher the humidity, the longer the drying time.  
  • Saturation level: If the home is heavily saturated, drying will take longer (giving mold a chance to grow).  
Is structural drying needed after a small leak?

The amount of water you see may not be the entire picture. What’s important is not just the amount, but where the water went. A small amount of water that enters a wall, cabinetry, or flooring is often harder to detect and completely dry. Over time, that small amount of moisture can weaken the supporting materials in your home.

Should I open my windows to help with structural drying?

When the outside air is too humid, or the property needs to be kept secure, it’s best to keep the windows closed. In the case of a more humid area, such as Florida, opening windows might increase the drying time.
