From a minor bath tub overflow to a major flood, all water issues deserve prompt and professional attention. Many problems such as leaky water heater or washing machine or a burst pipe may be pretty obvious. Others, such as a leaking roof or pipe leak within a wall may require our leak detection services to track down the source of the damage. Our water damage emergency services are also well-equipped to deal with major problems such as fire sprinkler and fire-fighting damage, sewage backups, and more.

Removing any standing water is only the beginning. If you stop there you may be setting yourself up for extensive restoration expenses later. Water quickly soaks deeply into many materials where even a powerful wet shop-vac won’t get to it. In addition to within padding and sub-flooring beneath carpet, the insides of walls are also affected. That water and moisture can linger for an amazingly long time, progressively causing warping and splitting, deterioration various materials, and the growth of mold. The latter can be a major health hazard even if it’s hidden out of sight. You may not notice these problems until long after the water issue. Absolutely complete dry out is critical: prevention is by far the best action to take.

Our special truck-mounted pump out equipment can quickly remove any standing water from your home or business, even the large volumes that accompany natural or plumbing-caused flooding.
ACR’s in-truck gear also includes specialized water extraction equipment, far more powerful and effective than any free-standing portable vacuums.

Drying out your building as quickly and as thoroughly as possible is absolutely critical in avoiding further damage. It requires a great deal of specialized knowledge, hands-on experience, and very specialized equipment.
ACR uses electronic temperature and humidity meters to monitor progress and determine completion. For speed our drying equipment inventory includes 160 Phoenix “Axail” air movers and 60 Drieaz “Velo” air movers. Many water damage restoration companies’ dry out efforts stop there. But we know that’s just not enough. So we also maintain 73 Phoenix “200HT” refrigerant dehumidifiers, 25 Rebel dehumidifiers, and 7 Energ’e’ heaters (the latest in thermal evaporation accelerators).
To prevent the spread of mold spores and other contaminants, we’ll also run one (or more) of our 99 Drieaz HEPA 500 air scrubbers.

Once all moisture is gone, we’ll apply mildewcide to kill bacteria and mold. If needed, we’ll also use one of our 6 Titan “Hydroxyl Generators” to provide ozone odor removal. Very few water damage repair companies have that equipment and capability.
If you choose, we can then proceed with any necessary finish, surface, structural repairs, and clean up services to get everything back to normal.
