How Vacant and Vacation Home Water Damage Water Cleanup Works in Burton

1. Remove standing water

   Portable units reach upper rooms where truck mounted equipment cannot be placed close to the loss.

2. Find absorbed moisture

   Pin and pinless meters show whether the Burton floor still holds water below its finish.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Dirty water on porous materials changes the work: contaminated pieces usually come out.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers encourage evaporation while dehumidifiers capture moisture from the air.

• Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
