Specialized Behind Wall Water Extraction Methods in Red Rock
Wall Leak Source Identification
Leak tracing uses readings, thermal images and the pattern of the stain to find where water enters the wall.
Post-Extraction Wall Sanitization
If the water came from a drain or sewer line, the cavity is cleaned and disinfected before it is closed up.
Wall Cavity Water Extraction
Water trapped at the bottom of a wall cavity is drained through small holes or a removed baseboard, then extracted before drying starts.
Wet Drywall
A meter shows exactly how high the water wicked up the drywall, so the cut is made only where it is needed.
Moisture Barrier Installation
Barrier replacement is done after the cavity is dry, so moisture is not sealed in behind new materials.
