If water is on the floor in Burbank, it is most likely one of these. Call for a free quote on any of them.
Storm Water Removal
When hard rain gets into a Burbank home, it brings soil with it. Water from outside counts as dirty water, so wet pad usually goes and floors are cleaned before the drying starts.

The Order of Work on a Burbank Job
The visit is built around one goal: as much water out as possible in the first hours, then a measured dry.
Source stopped
The water feeding the room is shut off or cut off, and power to wet areas is made safe before extraction starts.
Water typed
Clean supply water, gray water from appliances and dirty storm or sewer water are handled differently, so the source is identified first.
Standing water pumped
Inches of water are pumped out with submersible pumps and hoses so extraction tools can reach the floor.
Carpet and floors extracted
Weighted extraction tools press water out of carpet and pad, and hard floors are extracted with squeegee wands.
Moisture mapped
A moisture meter and thermal camera find the wet edge under floors and inside walls, and the map is recorded.
Drying set up
Air movers and dehumidifiers are placed for the size of the wet area, with baseboards or pad removed where water is trapped.
Checked until dry
Readings are taken on each visit, and the equipment stays until materials read dry.
Common Water Sources in Burbank Homes
The list below covers what crews find on most visits for water extraction in Burbank, CA, from burst lines to storm water.
Broken supply line
A split pipe or failed hose puts out gallons a minute. The faster it is extracted, the more carpet and drywall survive.
Rain coming in under doors
Water from outside carries soil and debris, so it is treated as dirty water and wet pad is usually removed.
Flooded basement
A failed sump pump fills a basement from the pit outward. Pumping out comes first, drying second.
Leak from upstairs
Water from a bathroom or unit above soaks the ceiling, walls and carpet on the floor below.
Wet carpet that smells
A musty smell means the pad underneath is still wet and needs extraction or removal.
Sewer backup
Water from a floor drain or toilet that backs up is contaminated and is cleaned before drying.
AC drain overflow
A clogged condensate line can drip into ceilings and closets for weeks.
What Can Be Saved After a Leak in Burbank
What can be saved comes down to three things: how clean the water was, how long it sat and what it soaked into. Tile and sealed concrete dry easily; pad, particleboard and insulation usually do not.
Not sure what can be saved? Call (866) 914-0544, say where the water came from and how long it sat, and you will hear what is likely to stay and what is likely to go.

What Burbank's Weather Means for Drying
Slab floors
On a slab floor, a leak runs wide instead of down. The wet edge under the carpet is often several feet past what you can see.
Older plumbing
In older housing stock, a corroded fitting behind a wall can leak for days before the floor shows it.
Heavy storms
Heavy storms here can push water in under doors and through window wells faster than drains can take it.
