Frequently Asked Questions About Apartment Water Extraction
Is commercial water extraction different from apartment extraction?
The equipment is similar, but commercial jobs cover larger open areas, while apartments involve tight spaces, stairs and shared walls.
Can water be extracted from inside apartment walls?
Water inside walls is dried rather than extracted, using small holes near the base of the wall and directed airflow.
What follows the apartment drying process?
Final readings confirm the unit is dry, equipment is removed, and repairs to drywall, flooring and paint can begin.
What tools are used for wet drywall water extraction?
Moisture meters to find the water, small drill holes or removed baseboards for airflow, and air movers and dehumidifiers to dry the cavity.
Can wet carpet in an apartment be saved?
Often yes, if the water was clean and extracted quickly. The pad is usually replaced, while the carpet can be dried in place.
