Burst Pipe Water Extraction
Water from a burst pipe is extracted as soon as the main is shut off, starting with the rooms where it is deepest.

Pumping starts at the lowest point of the flooded area and continues until no standing water remains anywhere inside.
Emergency Water Damage Cleanup
Wet rugs, boxes and debris are cleared, and surfaces touched by dirty water are cleaned before drying starts.
