24/7 Emergency
24/7 Emergency Water Extraction in Lubbock, TX
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 do the turbines on the roof actually do?
They pull air out of the attic, and here they do it constantly. A turbine turns whenever the wind blows, and on the High Plains that is most of the time, so the attic is held below the pressure of the house beneath it rather than simply being ventilated.
Why does a depressurized attic matter?
Because it draws from the house. A lower pressure above means air is pulled up out of the living space through every gap in the ceiling, and that air carries moisture with it into a cold roof space. The result is a damp attic with no leak anywhere.
Is more ventilation the answer?
It is usually the opposite. Adding ventilation increases the draw, so the sensible move is sealing the ceiling plane so the attic stops pulling from the house, and then letting the turbines vent the roof space rather than the rooms. That is the order it is done in.
