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.

A bathroom pipe burst last weekend and flooded into the hallway/kitchen before i woke up at 4a.m. to a strange sound of gushing water. I cannot convey how thankful our family is to ServPros mitigation and demo team. Exemplary communication with the Manager (Chirs!! Thank You!). The techs were informed, clean, respectful and knowledgeable. My favorite 3 things were 1. how the Manager keeps the initial team throughout the whole process. It is nice seeing the same faces and less intrusive, plus they know you and the job from start to finish. 2. Their response time...ASAP and consistent follow up. (In person and phone) 3. When my wishes were different then their standards the techs listened to me and waited for me to talk to Chris before moving forward with demo (saved us our entire kitchen cabinets!! ) 4. They seamlessly worked with my insurance so I did not have to shoulder the burden of being the middle man I absolutely plan to use them for the reconstruction phase. Although this is a difficult time I sort of look forward to working with Sevpro again. Thank You Seevpro for listening to me, easing my stress and anxiety and taking care of the little home that I love! Sincerely, B. Bray

I had servepro come out for flood restoration. They were quick to come out and get all of my flooring , drywall and insulation out. Dry the rest of the home and prevent further mold from happening. They did a great job.

I reached out to SERVPRO of Kitsap County for a quote for cleaning, sanitization, and a mold inspection at my rental property. From the very beginning, I was extremely impressed with the level of professionalism, communication, and customer service I received. Chris Street came out to conduct a thorough inspection of the property and took the time to answer all of my questions. I especially appreciated that he was honest and upfront and never tried to recommend or sell services that were not necessary. His knowledge and insight into the very specific issue I was dealing with gave me peace of mind and helped me feel confident about the best path forward. Chris was punctual for the initial inspection as well as his subsequent visits to the property. His communication throughout the process was excellent, and I always knew what to expect and what the next steps would be. I also had the pleasure of working with Paula Monroe in the office. Every time I called with a question, Paula either had the answer right away or followed up with me promptly to make sure I received the information I needed. She kept me informed throughout the entire process, including when quotes would be sent, updates regarding inspection findings, and billing information. I highly recommend both Chris and Paula for their professionalism, honesty, responsiveness, and outstanding customer service. They made what could have been a stressful situation much easier to navigate. I will absolutely be returning to SERVPRO of Kitsap County for any future work needed at my home or rental property. Thank you again, Chris and Paula, for your exceptional service and for making this experience such a positive one!

We are SO impressed with each team ServPro has sent to get out water damage taken care of. Every single person has been professional, friendly, and courteous. Even tearing out the shower stall was barely noticeable as they deconstructed it and removed it from the house! They’ve all done their work so quickly & quieter than expected , we’re jokingly calling these great professionals the ServPro Ninjas!🤣

Our diswasher flooded our kitchen and we called Servpro. Servpro was great. They came in and immediately started drying out kitchen. Chris the manager was so helpful. He kept me informed during the several day process and when he was busy with other customers he always got back to me in a timely manner when I had questions. The staff was also great. Always on time and very professional. Daniel worked with us the most. He was very respectful courteous as well as Tyler and Devon. I would highly recommend Servpro

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.
