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.

We had a major water leak and Spencer and his crew from SERVPRO arrived the very next day after we terminated NW restoration (which I would never recommend NWR.) Servpro’s lead guy on this project was Spencer, he was extremely organized and walked us through every step of the mitigation process. His work ethic along with his crew, was unlike anything I’ve seen. The crew worked diligently to dry everything out, using high tech, state of the art machines, immediately building containments to protect areas from mold spores, they kept the work area extremely clean, and treated the home with great care. I cannot thank them enough for turning a stressful disaster into a manageable process. The professionalism was unlike anything I’ve experienced. I Highly recommended Spencer and his team at Servpro!!!!! They are lifesavers! Literally!

I received excellent service from Servpro and highly recommend their water damage restoration service. Spencer responded quickly to a emergency call from me on a Saturday regarding water leaking into my condo from the unit above. He investigated the situation in a professional and knowledgeable manner and was able to stop the leak. On Monday, a team of three arrived to begin the steps necessary to remove the damaged drywall and insulation and dry out the exposed area. With each step of service, my questions were answered promptly and thoroughly. Due to Servpro I can now look forward to the restoration of the space impacted by this unfortunate event.

We recently had an unexpected flood from our upstairs washing machine that flowed through our floor down through the ceiling of our basement!! Isaiah from ServPro immediately responded at almost 9 pm and got to work. We were panicking as we had just over a week before leaving on a cruise. Isaiah and the rest of the crew were amazing and came to our house 4 more times in that many days checking for mold, water saturation and ripping out drywall and carpet padding! We can now leave for our cruise knowing our home is clean, dry and safe. Isaiah was personable, friendly and professional! Thanks so much!

I was referred to ServePro for a recent hot water tank leak in a vacation rental. Erika responded and was great! She was very professional, communicative and got the job done. Super easy to work with and efficient. She was very understanding about guests staying during the mitigation process. There was minimal disturbance, if any, around the guests stay. 10/10!

unfortunately had to call ServPro - Isaa answered after hours and was at my house in under 15 minutes making me feel like my house was his own house he was dealing with. he gave solid advice and explanations throughout the process and at no point did i feel like i was not taken care of. communication with Isaa has been epic - having young folk work as hard as he did on this job gives hope for the future. polite, hard worker, fast and honest. well done.

I have worked with John from Servpro on several projects. I have always been pleasantly surprised by the care he takes to contain dust and debris on the job site. He takes great care to protect the undamaged areas while making repairs. Servpro deploys the right equipment and people to get your building back to 100%..

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.
