What Commercial Water Extraction Includes in High Ridge
A flooded room in High Ridge may need pumping before extraction tools can reach the remaining moisture. Commercial Water Extraction continues through daily drying checks.
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.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
A humid room slows evaporation from wet framing. LGR dehumidifiers pull moisture from room air as air movers lift it off surfaces.
- 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.
