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.

Ryan, Alex, and I guess Dave... They did a great job and were courteous and prompt! There are definitely some well-informed humans at this company.

I had Servpro do an ozone treatment on my house a couple months ago after my dog got skunked. They did a great job, and it completely got rid of the smell. They were able to come out a couple days after it happened so I didn’t have to deal with the smell for too long. Julie and Kayla were also able to give me a couple pointers on how to get the smell off my dog. After googling the cost of treatments I was surprised at how affordable they had their pricing and saved me additional money not having to have my furniture and carpets deep cleaned, the ozone treatment did a great job. Knock on wood this doesn’t happen again but if it does, I’m definitely calling them.

After a fire at our home, we had the pleasure of working with Trent and Liz from Servpro of Middletown. During such a stressful and emotional time, they made an incredibly difficult process much easier to navigate. From the very beginning, they were professional, compassionate, and thoughtful while handling the cleanup, tear-out, and careful removal of our personal belongings. They responded quickly, kept us informed every step of the way, and communicated clearly throughout the entire process. Their attention to detail and genuine care gave us confidence that our home was in the best possible hands. It's rare to find a team that combines such professionalism with kindness and empathy. We are truly grateful to Trent, Liz, and the entire Servpro team for the outstanding service they provided. We hope anyone facing a similar situation has the same peace of mind we experienced. We highly recommend Servpro of Middletown.

Although dealing with any kind of restoration or tragic incident can hard to process, ServPro- Specifically Jesse Bruce and staff, make this whole transition a breeze. There are not enough words to describe the level of excellence Jesse and the crew provided during the last few months of our restoration project. It is amazing to see a company so advanced in communication efforts, flexibility and their unwavering knowledge in a multitude of areas. The attention to detail that has been continuously provided throughout this whole job has been nothing short of amazing. The end result of this is meticulous. It was a breath of fresh air to see the communication and appreciation between the ServPro staff, Jesse's dedication to not only the project but to the staff is admirable. It was such a positive experience, watching the staff actually enjoy their job and know that they are appreciated. Chris, Ryan and Cierra were absolutely amazing to work with. If I could provide 100 stars, I would. ServPro will be my only recommendation in residential and commercial restoration jobs.

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.
