Role of Comprehensive Professional Water Removal

Substantial water intrusion after a leak, flood, or overflow exposes your Shoreline home to serious damage. When this happens, you must act fast to avoid the progressive destruction of building materials and the chance of secondary issues like mold damage. 

Partner with the team from AdvantaClean of the Eastside for prompt and thorough water extraction services in Shoreline performed by our Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC)-certified crews. Each technician arrives at your home having mastered Water Damage Restoration Technician (WRT) training, augmenting those skills with the sophisticated tools, proprietary products, and professional-grade equipment required to handle water extraction effectively and efficiently.

Water Extraction Forms the Foundation of Successful Restoration

It might be tempting to jump straight to drying after water damage, but focusing first on professional water extraction is fundamental. Consider how the spin cycle in a washing machine removes as much water as possible before transferring damp clothes to a dryer. In a similar manner, removing as much standing and absorbed water as practical before wheeling in the air movers and dehumidifiers facilitates fast and comprehensive applied structural drying and greatly reduces the risk of microbial growth and damage. Do not overlook the role of pre-drying water extraction.

AdvantaClean’s well-equipped and highly skilled workers excel at aggressive and targeted water removal. Our resources include a full range of commercial-grade extraction tools tailored to the type and extent of the water issue in your home and the trained and experienced technician to operate them:

  • Submersible Pumps are vital when water is at least two inches deep. Their swift and robust extraction quickly moves large volumes of water to outside drains or treated sewer systems.

  • Truck-mounted extractors use powerful suction to remove water from floors, carpets, and other surfaces. Our technicians use wands to guide the equipment across affected areas, collecting water for proper disposal.

  • Weighted Extractors go a step further by using positive pressure to squeeze water out of thick carpet and padding. The technician often adds weight and efficiency by riding on the extractor as it passes over the wet materials.

  • Portable and Backpack Extractors aid access to corners, closets, and upper levels where larger equipment can’t go. These compact units are perfect for smaller or harder-to-reach spaces.

  • Floor Mat Systems create a seal over the hardwood boards or ceramic tile and grout flooring, using connected hoses to pull trapped moisture up and out to inhibit warping, buckling, or cracking. Moisture detectors run across the surface before the extraction to help target the areas where hidden water lurks.

  • Wall and Ceiling Drainage Tactics let us release hidden water in tight spots. We carefully drill small holes to access moisture trapped inside walls or above ceilings. Fluids drain in a more controlled way, avoiding structural collapse. The holes allow access to insert hoses to extract the water.
