Your Behind Wall Water Extraction Questions for Mount Lemmon
Is wall cavity drying always needed after extraction?
Yes. Extraction removes standing water, but studs, plates and insulation stay wet inside a closed wall unless they are dried.
Is wet wall removal covered by homeowners insurance?
Often, if the leak was sudden. Slow leaks and the repair of the leaking pipe itself may not be covered.
Does water extraction require cutting into drywall?
Not always. Small holes or removed baseboards are often enough. Larger cuts are made only where drywall is ruined.
How fast can emergency behind wall water removal start?
Help is available any hour, and extraction can start as soon as the water is shut off.
When is wet drywall and insulation removal required?
When drywall is soft, crumbling or wet with dirty water, or when insulation is soaked. Lightly damp drywall can sometimes be dried.
