The Order of Work on a Cornelia Job
Here is what a visit covers, from shutting off the source to the last moisture reading.
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.
Water Problems We Clean Up Around Cornelia
These are the sources behind most calls for water extraction in Cornelia, GA. Each one needs a slightly different approach.
Broken supply line
Clean water from a supply line spreads fast. Shut the main, then extraction and drying can save most of the room.
Storm water inside
When storm water gets in, it is pumped and extracted first, then affected materials are cleaned before drying.
Sump pump failure
A failed sump pump fills a basement from the pit outward. Pumping out comes first, drying second.
Toilet overflow
Clean tank water can be dried; water from a bowl with waste in it has to be treated as contaminated.
Dishwasher or ice maker leak
Slow leaks under cabinets soak the subfloor and toe kicks before anyone notices.
Wet carpet that smells
A musty smell means the pad underneath is still wet and needs extraction or removal.
Water under hard floors
Laminate, vinyl plank and hardwood trap water underneath, where it cannot dry on its own.
Dry It or Pull It: Deciding in Cornelia
Hardwood can often be dried with floor mats if the job starts early, while laminate that has swollen at the seams rarely recovers. The meter readings, the water type and the time it sat decide what stays.
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.

Saves what can be saved

Answered at any hour
Leaks happen at night and on holidays. The phone is answered and a crew is lined up whenever the water starts.
Source first, then water
The leak is stopped before extraction, so the crew is not drying a room that is still getting wet.
