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 unfortunately had a water break which significantly damaged 2 floors in our home. ServPro remediation, led by Brandon, was quick to respond by quickly sending Ricky's crew to help limit the damage. Subsequently, Eli and his team, Sergio, Tito, and JP, took over professionally wrapping and removing our antique furniture for transportation to the storage unit. During the process, Eli was a great communicator of their arrival times and was very professional and encouraging in dealing with our issues. Linda, who coordinated all departments, was very available and reliable. In summary, everyone was accommodating, professional, and encouraging for which we are very appreciative in an otherwise difficult situation. Thank you! Ross and Debbie Walker

Noah, Dom and Sean were amazing!! So helpful and tended to every detail. They were so considerate of my blindness and making sure that everything was safe! They packed up all of my beautiful crystal in my China cabinet. They were spectacular and I would give them a 1000 stars if I could!

I’m leaving this review on behalf of my parents, who unfortunately had to deal with flooding and significant damage to their apartment. Today, after the repairs were completed by the contractors, two Servpro employees, Rebeca and Derek, came to assess the apartment and clean up the extensive dust left behind from the drywall and ceiling repairs. They were both extremely professional, but even more importantly, they showed genuine empathy and compassion. My parents are 93 and 82 years old and have been displaced from their home, living in a hotel while the repairs were being completed. Rebeca was incredibly patient in answering all of my parents’ questions and reassured them that she and Derek would thoroughly clean the apartment and take care of everything after the flooding, damage, and construction. She even explained that they would be removing and washing all of the textiles in the apartment, especially since some of my parents’ belongings had to be discarded because of mold. I cannot say enough about these two amazing employees. We are truly grateful for their kindness, professionalism, and dedication. When we returned to the apartment at the end of the day, the apartment was spotless. They exceeded our expectations and made a very difficult situation much easier for my elderly parents. Thank you, Rebeca and Derek, for treating my parents with such care, respect, and compassion. Servpro is fortunate to have employees like you.

This company was GREAT to work with after our tub leaked all over our floors and we needed restoration. Sean and his team were always on time, communicated clearly and were on top of every step. I really appreciate the company and Sean, they were fabulous to work with and I would highly recommend them if you are in need of water or fire restoration!

Servpro was there the day after our house burned. They were efficient and excellent. We are so thankful for all they did for us.

Our house had water damage from a faulty kitchen pipe, and our neighbors highly recommended ServPro. The whole team at this location was prompt, friendly, and professional. Isaiah provided a thorough assessment and estimate, and I appreciated the transparency and clarity for prices. Sean and his team provided top notch work to mitigate damage as well as keep a functioning kitchen for our large family. Happy to recommend their services to others!

Our upstairs toilet overflowed and flooded into the hallway and bedroom next door, and then flooded our kitchen on the first floor, pouring through the vent, ceiling, and the light above the kitchen sink, into my office, and our living room. It was catastrophic, and incredibly stressful. Zach with SERVEPRO managed our remediation, and did an excellent job making us feel at ease and reassuring me that this was not the end of the world. Huge thank yous to Zach, Andrew, Kole, Dominic, Kyle, Dave, and Noah. Every member of the team really impressed me with their professional behavior and attitudes. Just a great group of young guys who showed maturity, skill, and empathy well beyond their years. Could not recommend this team more. Andrew was really conscientious and made sure that the sharp tack strips were removed, sharp edges were covered, and made my son feel like a part of the team - he got to be the "boss". Dominic carefully emptied all my damaged kitchen cabinets and drawers, so I had less time away from work. Kole figured out how to remove the tile in a way we could keep the old toilet installed until everything gets restored - that was essential to making our house liveable with 5 people!

Kyle and his ServePro team were exceptional. As soon as I found the small lake in our Main bedroom on a Saturday I contacted ServePro. Kyle was here within a couple of hours removing water and setting up blowers to mitigate the damage. He checked back on progress on Sunday and had a crew here on Monday to start the process to prepare for floor removal. The crew did a fantastic job in protecting our property from dust and damage while they worked to remove the glued down engineered hardwood. No easy task. Kyle and his team were on site everyday until the floors were dried and they removed the plastic sheeting protecting the test of our home. Kyle and the ServePro team were professional and were great at communicating with us and our insurance. God forbid we have another water emergency but if we do ServePro will be the first call.

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.
