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 bathtub flood Into our kitchen, and Sam came to take a look. By the time he had come, I had already pulled all the drywall out of the ceiling and tried to dry things out as best I could as it had happened over a weekend and I didn’t contacted them until Monday. He did a very thorough inspection and was honest in the fact that all I needed was some drywall repaired and recommended I contacted a drywall installer as it Would be cheaper than going through an insurance claim and their company. This is not my first time contacting water restoration company, but it is the first time I have had one be so honest with me! Additionally, they got contacted by my insurance company earlier this afternoon and came within three hours to take a look. Which was amazing! Because of their prompt service and honest Information I will happily give them five stars! They said they offer free checks for water so if anybody has any question of whether or not they should do a restoration give them a call as there is nothing to lose!

We worked with Sam & he did a great job. We had vacation planned & had to be out of town when he needed to be there to clean up after our leaky pipe caused water damage, & he did was awesome to work with us despite not being able to easily communicate. He got the work done & was courteous & respectful of our home while we were out of town (we did have someone house sitting for us to let him & be there while he was working). I would recommend him to anybody. The ServePro company was great to work with as well. They were very timely in our communications & working with our insurance company. They are a great service to work with!

Great people and really good work! They were so fast to respond right after our new home flooded, great communication and help when we needed it most. I can’t say enough great things about them and Preston especially as our main contact was such a pleasure to work with. I would recommend them to anyone!

After having a horrible experience with another company my insurance agent recommended them to me. Bret and Blake not on did a good job but caught MORE mistakes they did previously. Bret and Blake worked with Sam and they did an amazing job. I am so thankful I went with Serv Pro after having such a poor experience with the previous company.

I personally haven't used Servpro before but came across them by a referral when one of our sites was unexpectedly impacted. Servpro stepped in and handled everything quickly and professionally. Franciso and Mendon were efficient, respectful, and communicative through the entire process. I highly recommend Servpro for anyone needing quick and professional cleanup services.

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.
