24/7 Emergency
24/7 Emergency Water Extraction in Pensacola, 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 a jalousie window?
A stack of narrow glass slats in a metal frame that crank open and closed together. They were fitted everywhere along this coast because they let air through while keeping the sun off, and they close by each pane resting on the one below rather than sealing into anything.
Why does rain get through a closed one?
Because closed is not the same as sealed. The slats overlap but nothing presses them together, so rain driven at the window in a summer storm goes straight between them. In still rain they shed perfectly well, which is why the problem seems to come and go.
Can they be made weathertight?
Not really, and that is worth saying plainly. There is no gasket to renew and no adjustment that closes the gaps. Where a wall keeps getting wet under a jalousie unit, replacing the window is the repair, and everything else is postponing it.
