The Clean Water Extraction (Category 1) Process for Properties in Tukwila

Hard Surface Floor Drying

Tile, sealed concrete and hardwood are squeegeed and extracted, then dried with air movers. Grout lines and seams are checked for water underneath.

Appliance Leak Water Cleanup

A washer, dishwasher, refrigerator line or water heater leak is shut off, and the clean water is extracted from the floor and under nearby cabinets.

Standing Water Pump Out

Standing water from a supply line or appliance is pumped out with submersible pumps when it is more than shallow, then floors are extracted.

Clean Water Removal From Flooring

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

Wet Carpet Water Extraction

Carpet pad is checked after extraction. Pad soaked through is often replaced, while the carpet above is floated and dried.
