Condo Water Extraction FAQs

How quickly should I call for emergency water removal in a condo?

Stopping the water, extracting it and drying quickly keeps it from spreading into more materials and units.

Can a slow leak cause major damage in a condo?

Yes. Slow leaks can soak subfloors and ceilings below for weeks before anyone sees a sign.

Why is containment used during condo water extraction?

Plastic sheeting keeps dust and moisture in the work area and out of clean rooms and shared hallways.

How long do condo drying services usually take?

Often several days, depending on whether subfloors, shared walls or ceilings got wet and how long the water sat.
