Tools & methods
Tools and methods we use
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
Moisture meter
We use moisture meters to measure water content in drywall, wood, and concrete. This helps us map the extent of the damage and monitor drying progress.
Thermal imaging camera
Thermal imaging cameras reveal hidden moisture behind walls and under floors. We use them to find water that isn't visible to the naked eye.
Air mover
Air movers circulate air to speed up evaporation. We place them strategically to dry walls, floors, and ceilings. We use Dri-Eaz and Phoenix air movers.
Dehumidifier
Dehumidifiers remove moisture from the air. We use refrigerant and desiccant dehumidifiers, including units from Dehumidifier Corporation of America and Legend Brands.
Water extraction unit
Truck-mounted and portable extraction units remove standing water quickly. We also use wet/dry vacuums for tight spaces. Our units are powerful and efficient.
Air scrubber
Air scrubbers with HEPA filters remove mold spores and particles from the air. We use them during mold remediation and after sewage cleanup. They improve indoor air quality.
Sump pump
We install and service sump pumps to prevent basement flooding. We can also install backup systems to keep your basement dry during power outages.

Your basement likely floods because of foundation seepage, a failing sump pump, or poor drainage. Valencia's clay soil holds water, which can crack foundations and push water inside. We inspect for these issues and can recommend fixes like sealant, sump pump upgrades, or exterior drainage improvements.
Most homeowner policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, like burst pipes or appliance failures. Flooding from storms or groundwater may require separate flood insurance. We work with all major insurers and provide detailed documentation to support your claim. We can also bill your insurer directly.
