24/7 Emergency
24/7 Emergency Water Extraction in Fort Collins, CO
Standing water is pumped and extracted around the clock, before it climbs the walls and soaks the subfloor. Same-day response where coverage allows. Free water is pumped and extracted first, from hard floors and out of carpet and pad, before it climbs further into drywall and subfloor. The wet edge is metered and marked while the water is fresh, and drying equipment goes in the same day, because extraction is where the size of the job is decided.

Often needed alongside
- Structural Drying & Dehumidification
Sealed air movers and dehumidifiers bring framing, subfloor and drywall back to a measured dry standard, with daily readings logged from inside the material.
- Sewage & Contaminated Water Cleanup
Sewage and black-water losses are contained, the materials the water touched are removed and disposed of, hard surfaces are disinfected, and the space is dried to a reading.
Frequently asked questions
Why is the floor wettest in one corner?
Because something is pulling it there. A fan drawing from beneath the slab runs continuously, and after a leak it moves moisture through the ground under the floor toward its own suction point rather than letting it spread evenly. The highest readings can be a long way from where the water came in.
Should the system be turned off?
Usually for the drying, and it is a decision taken early. Left running it keeps moving moisture around under the floor and can pull damp air through the slab into the house. Turned off, the ground beneath settles and the readings start describing where the water actually is.
What is checked before it goes back on?
The pipe itself and the ground around it, because water can get into the system as well as be moved by it. Once the slab has come down and the source is repaired the fan goes back on, but running it through a wet subgrade is not doing what it was installed to do.
