Complete Clean Water Extraction (Category 1) Services in Krum

Wet Carpet Water Extraction

Clean water in carpet is pressed out with weighted extraction tools. Because the water is clean, the carpet can often be dried and kept.

Hard Surface Floor Drying

Hardwood is dried slowly with dehumidifiers and, where needed, drying mats that pull water from the boards without cracking them.

Clean Water Removal From Flooring

Floors are dried until readings match unaffected areas, so new flooring or refinishing does not trap moisture.

Ceiling Leak Water Removal

The ceiling cavity is dried along with the room below, so both levels are back to normal before repairs.

Emergency Water Mitigation

Emergency mitigation focuses on what is still at risk. Belongings are moved, furniture is set on blocks and the wettest areas are extracted first.

Warning Signs of Water Damage in Krum
