Condo Water Extraction FAQs

Why is containment used during condo water extraction?

Plastic sheeting keeps dust and moisture in the work area and out of clean rooms and shared hallways.

What happens during water damaged floor removal?

Flooring and underlayment that trap water are lifted and bagged, and the subfloor is dried and checked.

Can a slow leak cause major damage in a condo?

Yes. Slow leaks can soak subfloors and ceilings below for weeks before anyone sees a sign.

How is emergency flood cleanup started in a condo?

The water is shut off, power near the water is made safe and extraction begins in the wettest areas.
