How Wet Carpet Flood Water Removal Works in Fortine

1. Pump or extract liquid water

   Dirty water requires protective handling during extraction. The team keeps contaminated material separate from dry areas while liquid is removed.

2. Find moisture beyond the puddle

   The moisture map includes unaffected comparison areas. That helps the crew judge drying progress on materials of the same kind.

3. Remove materials that hold unsafe water

   The crew documents what comes out and why. Removed material notes help explain the loss when later finish work is quoted.

4. Dry the structure and confirm progress

   Equipment remains while subfloors or framing still test wet. The crew removes it after measurements support completion.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A pump clears bulk water, but it does not measure moisture in a subfloor. Wet building materials can develop mold in 24 to 48 hours on damp materials. Continued readings show where drying must continue.

• Keep people off wet carpet and move furniture legs away from the damp area.
• Keep children and pets outside the wet area.
• Photograph the source and affected materials if safe.
• Move loose belongings away from spreading water.
• Call (888) 949-8496 for 24/7 flood water removal.
