How an Extraction Visit Runs in Kenmore
Seven steps, in this order, because extraction without drying only does half the job.
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.
What Puts Water on Kenmore Floors
These are the sources behind most calls for water extraction in Kenmore, WA. Each one needs a slightly different approach.
Burst or leaking pipe
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
When storm water gets in, it is pumped and extracted first, then affected materials are cleaned before drying.
Sump pump failure
Inches of water in a basement are pumped out first, then carpet, drywall and stored items are dealt with.
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.
Dry It or Pull It: Deciding in Kenmore
Carpet soaked with clean water can usually be extracted and dried in place if it is reached quickly. The pad under it is cheap and holds water, so it is often removed. Dirty water changes that: carpet and pad touched by sewage or flood water are removed.
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.

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.

Water you can see is only part of it. The wet edge under floors and in walls is usually bigger.
What Kenmore's Weather Means for Drying
Long rainy season
The long wet season here means water seeps in slowly, and wet carpet or a damp crawl space gets missed.
Crawl spaces
A pipe that bursts over a crawl space can fill it for days before anyone looks underneath.
Freeze bursts
A hard freeze can split pipes in exterior walls and attics, and the flood starts when the pipe thaws.

Water Extraction in Kenmore, WA: FAQs
Something we missed?
Phone in with your question. Getting a price range over the phone costs nothing, and nobody pushes a visit.
Call (866) 914-0544How much does water extraction in Kenmore, WA cost?
Most jobs cost an estimated $1,200 to $4,000 including drying. A one-room leak is estimated at $300 to $1,200, and large losses with dirty water at $4,000 to $12,000. Whatever the source, the price is agreed in writing before the drying starts.
Why did my sump pump fail?
The usual reasons are a power outage during a storm, a stuck float switch, a clogged inlet or a pump that is simply too small for the amount of water coming in.
Should drywall be replaced if it gets wet?
Not always. Drywall wet from clean water and dried quickly can often stay. Swollen drywall, insulated walls and anything touched by dirty water are cut out above the waterline.
Is flood water or sewage handled differently?
Yes. Storm and sewage water are contaminated, so carpet and pad are removed, surfaces are cleaned and sanitized, and then the area is dried.
