Broken Pipe Water Removal Services in Olympia
Water Damaged Floor Removal
Flooring that cupped, buckled or delaminated after a broken pipe is pulled up and bagged, and the subfloor is dried.
Flooded Room Drying
Air movers and dehumidifiers dry the walls, floor and framing in each wet room, with readings taken daily until they are back to normal.
Wet Drywall Removal
Removing the lower section of wet drywall is often faster and cheaper than trying to dry it for weeks inside a closed wall.

Once the main valve is off, standing water from the broken pipe is pumped and extracted from floors, carpet and any room it ran into.
