24/7 Emergency
24/7 Emergency Water Extraction in Pembroke Pines, FL
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.

Frequently asked questions
What is holding the roof tiles on?
Pads of expanding foam, on most roofs of this age here. The tile is bedded onto the foam rather than nailed through into the deck below, which was the standard method when these went up and works well while the adhesive holds.
How does a tile roof fail without losing tiles?
By shifting. A pad that has let go allows the tile to move an inch or two under wind, which is invisible from the ground but uncovers the underlayment beneath it. That membrane is what actually keeps water out, and it is not meant to be exposed.
How is a debonded tile found?
From the roof rather than from the ground, and by hand. A tile that has lost its pad moves when it is pressed, and a walk across the roof finds them where a look from the drive finds nothing. It is worth doing after any real wind.
