What Commercial Water Extraction Includes in Armstrong
A Armstrong crew uses meters during commercial water extraction to find water beneath visible surfaces. Air movers and dehumidifiers then dry the exposed structure.
A pipe break, roof entry or flood in an occupied business can soak office carpet, merchandise, equipment, walls and large floor areas. Surface mopping leaves water inside these materials. A plumber or the appropriate trade fixes the source; a cleanup crew dries the damage. Call Water Cleanup Team USA at (888) 578-6508.
The source and the damage may need different workers. For an overflowing fixture, plumbing work prevents more water; technicians then dry the subfloor and adjacent rooms.

- Stop the water at a safe shutoff if the source is inside.
- Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
- Photograph office carpet before moving affected items.
- Keep children and pets away from standing or dirty water.
- Move dry valuables out of the path without walking through water.
