Water damage can occur in a number of ways, from heavy rainfall causing issues in your attic to a burst or leaking pipe. Regardless of the cause, the key is to remove the water as quickly as possible. Our team at Sunny California Restoration is always available to provide effective emergency services. However, it’s crucial for homeowners to be proactive and recognize the need for these services when water-related disasters strike.
Water Extraction 101
Water removal for Valencia homes is one of the first mitigation steps for responding professionals when water leaks occur. Extraction is a critical component of emergency services, and our skilled roster arrives with multiple types of equipment to address this need. Before extraction starts, our contractors ensure the water stops to keep the situation from worsening.
Ultimately, water removal can come down to three types of equipment, each with its unique role:
- Pumps – Pumps move water aggressively outside the structure or through an available drain. Our team can utilize engine-driven units attached to our service vehicles or standalone fueled units.
- Vacuums – Wet-dry vacuums remove excess water from flooring materials. Unlike pumps that disperse the fluid to a drain or outside the structure, vacuums store collected water in a tank for removal.
- Wands—Wands are critical for focused extraction, including removing moisture from smooth surfaces with squeegee wands or pulling water trapped in fiber flooring with a carpet wand.
Why Is Water Extraction Important for Your Home?
While standing water might be inevitable when disasters occur, you must appreciate the sensitive timeline associated with the recovery and cleanup services. Water never stops trying to move from its origin point to new rooms and spaces, occupying wall cavities and seeping into porous building materials. The faster efforts like water removal begin, the less destructive this standing water becomes.
