A Sandy Visit, Step by Step
Every visit follows the same order, so nothing wet gets closed up or left behind.
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 Sandy Homes
The list below covers what crews find on most visits for water extraction in Sandy, UT, 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.
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 Sandy
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.

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.
