Emergency Water Extraction and Damage Mitigation in Port Townsend
Flooded Basement Water Removal
A flooded lower level is pumped out, then carpet, pad and wet drywall are extracted or removed and the space is dried with dehumidifiers.

Wet insulation behind drywall is removed along with the soaked section, so the cavity can dry fully.
Emergency Water Damage Cleanup
Wet rugs, boxes and debris are cleared, and surfaces touched by dirty water are cleaned before drying starts.
Emergency Flood Water Extraction
