Behind Wall Water Extraction by Water Damage Pros in Union

Hidden leaks in Union walls often come from supply lines behind sinks and toilets, shower valves, window flashing or a roof leak running down the inside of an exterior wall.

In Union, behind-wall leaks are often found as a stain near a bathroom or kitchen. Local behind wall water removal experts serve Union, Florence, Burlington and Elsmere, tracing the source and drying the wall.

Comprehensive Behind Wall Water Extraction Offered in Union

Hidden Water Damage Detection

Detection starts at the visible stain or soft spot and works outward, checking studs, baseboards and the floor along the wall.

Wall Cavity Water Extraction

Wet insulation inside the cavity holds water against the studs. It is pulled out so the cavity can be extracted and dried.

Wall Leak Source Identification

The pros trace water in a wall back to its source, such as a supply line, drain, window, roof or shower, so it can be repaired.

Emergency Behind Wall Water Removal

Emergency removal starts with shutting off the water, then opening the wall where needed and extracting water from the cavity and floor.

Moisture Barrier Installation

Some exterior walls have a plastic vapor barrier behind the drywall. After drying, a damaged barrier is replaced so the wall works as designed.
