How Commercial Water Extraction Works in Gallup

Remove standing water
Portable units reach upper rooms where truck mounted equipment cannot be placed close to the loss.
-
Find absorbed moisture
A room by room moisture map helps place drying gear where it will matter.

- Photograph office carpet before moving affected items.
- Keep children and pets away from standing or dirty water.
