Our 4-Step Burst Pipe Water Damage Cleanup Process

When you have a burst water pipe in your house or business, you need to act fast. Our team follows this four-step process to minimize damage and expedite restoration:

We identify the source of the water leak and the extent of the damage. Our first move is to shut off the water main to prevent further damage. For larger or complex breaks, we bring in a certified plumber.

We use heavy-duty extraction equipment to dry key areas like plaster walls, hardwood floors, carpets, rugs, and drywall. This crucial step minimizes bacteria and mold growth.
