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.

My experiences with Servpro of Clallam and Jefferson Counties in Washington State have surpassed my highest expectations! Robert Bournes and his team of highly skilled and caring workers helped me when water damage occurred during getting my home ready to sell. The response on a weekend was extremely prompt . I was helped to get my homeowner’s insurance claim filed and work to remediate the damage and restore my home to a livable and salable state went beautifully. People showed up and did outstanding work, and were always polite and pleasant. I could not have asked for a better crew of people And the quality of the work to remove damaged materials and replace what needed replacing was excellent. I highly recommend this business! They know what they are doing. Very impressed and very grateful.

My elderly mother had a flood in her basement in October. Servpro came in immediately and began restoring the basement and arranged for asbestos abatement. This was all done professionally and in a timely manner. In addition, Jessica from servpro noticed my mother was not steady on her feet and out of sorts on one of her visits to the house. Jessica not only called me immediately (I live in Portland) to tell me what was going on, but she took my mom to the hospital and stayed with her all day there. I can't thank Jessica and Servpro enough for being there for my mom when I couldn't! I would not hesitate for a second to recommend them.

SERVEPRO performed a miracle job on our new home. We bought a house that had not been lived in for a year. During that time a new wood floor had been put in with a Swedish wood finish. Upon moving in, I found the chemical outgassing of the wood floor finish was more than I could handle for more than 2 hours inside the home. Obviously a big problem. My neighbor suggested an ozone treatment and recommended SERVEPRO. Robert (whom I refer to as the Magic Man) came out and looked at what needed to be done. It took 2 treatments to get the house to where I can spend the whole day inside and not be affected. The air in the house now feels clean and free of chemical toxins. Robert was a dream to work with, genuinely interested and knowledgeable about what needed to be done after listening to my needs. His concern that our house was to our satisfaction was evident. I am so thankful to him and SERVEPRO, words don't say enough.

The Mitigation Team was excellent! I had a frozen pipe with major flooding through half of my house. They responded quickly and a great job. Everyone was helpful but three people stand out. Jessica, Jason and Donna. Jessica is very good at managing people and logistics and equipment. She is a clear and timely communicator and very pleasant to deal with. My floors took extra time to dry and she was helpful and informative throughout. Jason did the bulk of the cleanup process and used his ingenuity and creativity to solve some unusual drying problems. Donna is already famous for being a GREAT packer and left me boxes with very easy to understand labels. I enjoyed working with all of them. I will review the Reconstruction Team when that work is complete

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.
