Comprehensive Apartment Water Extraction for Berkley Apartments
Wet Drywall Water Extraction
Water is drawn out of soaked drywall by drilling small holes near the base and blowing dry air into the wall cavity.
Apartment Carpet Water Removal
Carpet in an apartment is extracted with weighted tools that press water out of the pad, often removing most of the water in one pass.
Apartment Subfloor Water Removal
A wet subfloor left alone can swell, soften and leak into the ceiling below. Drying it is part of a complete extraction job.
Apartment Flood Water Extraction
Flood water in an apartment spreads under walls into closets and the next room. Extraction follows it room by room until no standing water is left.
Apartment Moisture Inspection
Readings are logged room by room, which gives the tenant, the property manager and insurers one record of the damage.
Indicators You Need Professional Apartment Water Extraction
Musty or Damp Odors
A damp or musty smell in a closet or bathroom can point to hidden water under flooring or inside walls.
Sagging or Warping Drywall
Drywall that bulges, sags or feels soft has absorbed water and may need to be cut out.
Puddles or Standing Water
Standing water on any floor needs extraction right away, before it soaks into pad, subfloor and the walls around it.
Unexplained Spike in Water Bill
A water bill that rises with no change in use usually means a hidden leak in the unit.

Step 2: Detailed Moisture Inspection
