Condo Water Extraction FAQs
Is water damage restoration different from water extraction?
Extraction removes the water. Restoration covers drying, removal of damaged materials and repairs afterward.
Does condo leak repair happen during water extraction?
The pros note the source, but the plumbing repair is done by a plumber or the association's contractor.
Why is quick action so important for condo flood cleanup?
Water in a condo spreads to neighbors quickly, which multiplies the damage, the repairs and the insurance claims.
What is involved in condo water extraction?
Stopping the source, extracting water from carpet and floors, checking neighboring units with meters and drying what is still wet.
Can a slow leak cause major damage in a condo?
Yes. Slow leaks can soak subfloors and ceilings below for weeks before anyone sees a sign.
