The Order of Work on a Madison 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.
What Puts Water on Madison Floors
These are the sources behind most calls for water extraction in Madison, AL. 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
Water from outside carries soil and debris, so it is treated as dirty water and wet pad is usually removed.
Flooded basement
Inches of water in a basement are pumped out first, then carpet, drywall and stored items are dealt with.
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.
Washing machine overflow
A burst fill hose or a stuck valve floods the laundry and the rooms beside it.
Toilet overflow
Clean tank water can be dried; water from a bowl with waste in it has to be treated as contaminated.
Keeping What Can Be Kept in Madison
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.
Tell us the source and roughly when it started when you call (866) 914-0544. If drying in place will work, you will be told so.

Heavy storms

Crawl spaces
Many homes here sit over a crawl space, where water pools on the vapor barrier and soaks the insulation.
