Contaminated Water Removal and Restoration Services in Sullivan

Emergency Water Mitigation

Emergency mitigation starts with stopping water use, containing the area and extracting contaminated water right away.

Gray Water Damage Cleanup

Gray water from washing machines, dishwashers or sink drains is extracted, and the floors and cabinets it reached are cleaned before drying.

Black Water Extraction

Black water extraction starts with containment, so contamination is not tracked through the house during cleanup.

Toxic Spill Water Removal

Larger chemical or fuel spills may need a hazardous materials contractor. The pros handle the water damage once the area is safe.

Sewage Backup Water Removal

After a sewage backup, carpet, pad and lower drywall that soaked it up are removed, and hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected.
