Water Extraction Dry Out Orlando FL



Water leaks, flooding and spills are very common in Central Florida. Immediate inspection of floor coverings, structural materials and crawl spaces, as well as prompt removal of all standing water, is critical to reduce or eliminate structural water damage and/or mold. Since every second matters, First Call Restoration Orlando is ready to respond 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No matter when a water incident occurs, we will be there to help you.


Using the latest and truck-mounted equipment, we can remove most of the standing water within a short period of time. After we have completed our extraction of standing water, the structure must be dried thoroughly and properly to avoid mold contamination of your structure and contents.
Homeowners and property managers sometimes remove standing water themselves, then neglect to have the area professionally dried because the surfaces look dry or feel “dry to the touch.” However, without the proper assessment equipment, it is impossible to determine how much moisture is still within the structure. And without the proper drying equipment it is impossible to draw that moisture out before it cultivates mold or causes other structural damage. Increased moisture in the air after an indoor flood can cause “secondary” damage to decorative wood, books, artwork and other items, so thorough drying and de-humidification are critical.

Significant contamination in a home or office can decrease property value. And without proper mitigation, can make your home or office much more difficult to sell.
