How Structural Drying Flood Water Removal Works in Pride

1. Pump or extract liquid water

   Pumps address volume; extraction tools reach remaining liquid in accessible materials. The technician notes any area still taking on water.

2. Find moisture beyond the puddle

   A ceiling stain can be smaller than the saturated cavity above it. Technicians test nearby surfaces before deciding how far the cleanup extends.

3. Remove materials that hold unsafe water

   A saturated insulation batt holds water against wood. Removing it can give the cavity access to airflow and dehumidification.

4. Dry the structure and confirm progress

   A wall cavity and an open floor need different airflow. The crew tracks moisture in each affected material until targets are met.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Water beneath vinyl can linger after mopping. Since a waterlogged substrate can support mold within 24 to 48 hours, technicians assess the substrate and avoid sealing moisture under a new finish.

• Keep equipment vents clear and report new leaks immediately.
• Keep children and pets outside the wet area.
• Photograph the source and affected materials if safe.
• Move loose belongings away from spreading water.
• Call (888) 949-8496 for 24/7 flood water removal.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

A long-unnoticed leak may face policy limits that differ from a sudden break. The insurer makes that determination. A crew can still describe the wet footprint and the work needed to dry it.

• Photograph the waterline from a safe, dry position
• Record when the water was first discovered
• Ask the crew for initial moisture readings
