A Emmaus Visit, Step by Step
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.
Common Water Sources in Emmaus Homes
These are the sources behind most calls for water extraction in Emmaus, PA. 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.
Dishwasher or ice maker leak
Slow leaks under cabinets soak the subfloor and toe kicks before anyone notices.
Leak from upstairs
Water from a bathroom or unit above soaks the ceiling, walls and carpet on the floor below.
Water under hard floors
Laminate, vinyl plank and hardwood trap water underneath, where it cannot dry on its own.
Sewer backup
Water from a floor drain or toilet that backs up is contaminated and is cleaned before drying.
Keeping What Can Be Kept in Emmaus
Drywall that got wet from clean water and is dried within a few days can often stay. Insulated walls, swollen drywall and anything touched by dirty water are cut out above the waterline so the cavity can dry.
Before anything gets torn out, describe the water and the rooms when you call (866) 914-0544. Most of the answer comes from the source and the time it has been sitting.

Why Emmaus Homeowners Call Us
Dry is measured
Readings are taken on walls and floors at every visit, so equipment comes out when the house is dry, not when the calendar says so.
Source first, then water
The leak is stopped before extraction, so the crew is not drying a room that is still getting wet.
Saves what can be saved
Carpet, floors and walls are dried in place when the readings and the water type allow it, instead of being torn out by default.
