Black Water Extraction (Category 3) Services in Pilot Point
Storm Sewer Flood Water Removal
Water from an overloaded storm sewer or street flooding carries soil, debris and contaminants. It is extracted and the affected areas are cleaned.

Water is extracted from contaminated carpet first to reduce weight and spread, then the carpet and pad are removed and the subfloor disinfected.

Rugs, bath mats and carpet soaked by toilet overflow are usually discarded. Tile and hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected.
