Get Professional Water Removal Services in Southern Idaho & Eastern Oregon

When heavy storms and weather disasters strike, many residents in Southern Idaho and the surrounding cities are faced with unexpected damage to their homes and businesses. If you’re dealing with the aftermath of water damage, it’s important to contact a professional to assess and repair the damages. At Cleanup & Total Restoration, we have helped thousands with water removal services and are ready to help you too. 

When Do I Need Professional Water Removal Services?

After experiencing flood damage, you might be tempted to start the cleanup and water removal process on your own immediately. However, structural drying is a scientific process that has been perfected by professionals using specialized equipment and drying methods. No matter the size or location of the flood, to fully restore your home to its prior glory, you need to call Cleanup & Total Restoration. Our team of water removal experts prevents any further water damage, saving you valuable time and money.

Our Water Removal Process

Water removal is different from restoration, you can’t restore an area without removing the water first. Our water removal process follows these basic steps: 

Stopping the Water Source

The first step in any water removal process is to stop the water source from causing any further damage. 

Inspecting the Damages

Next, we’ll inspect the home or building for damages and come up with a game plan.

Contamination Evaluation 

After determining the extent of the damage, we’ll determine the type of water contamination based on three water classifications.

Class One (Clean) – The water originates from a sanitary source such as a broken water supply line, overflowing tubs/sinks, and rainwater.

Class Two (Gray) – The water has significant contamination from sources such as toilet bowls, dishwashers, broken aquariums, and washer machines. 

Class Three (Black) – This is the most contaminated water that contains pathogens, toxins, or other harmful agents that come from sewers, waste lines, and flooding rivers, oceans, etc. 

Water Removal

After a thorough evaluation and determining the best course of action, we will start extracting water using our top-tier products and equipment.

Drying & Dehumidifying 

Water damage introduces moisture to your home or business which can lead to mold, structural damage, and health issues due to poor air quality. Once water is removed from a flooded area, our techs use specialized, industrial-level dehumidifiers to exact every bit of moisture. Without professional-grade dehumidifiers and drying equipment, there’s no way to ensure that the room or affected area is completely dry.

Antimicrobial Application 

This doesn’t happen in every case, but the next step is applying antimicrobial treatments to ensure a safe environment, depending on the contamination level.

Mitigate Future Damages

Our technicians are specially trained to help you mitigate water damage that may have occurred due to wet insulation. We do everything we can to get you back to a comfortable home such as salvaging your belongings, moving furniture, and whatever else you may need.

These guys are awesome! When our kitchen and basement flooded we originally called this other contractor which turned out to be a poor experience. When CTR came in the picture and realized how long we've been waiting to get our home back together they moved us up to the top of their priority list. Not only is our home looking better then before, they have a crew full of genuine people. Paul is the sweetest, he went above and beyond and really treated our home like it was his own. Tyler and Hunter did the same, keeping in mind small details and making sure to communicate with me any possible concerns they came across along the way. We have other projects in our home and we'll definitely be calling these guys back when we're ready to get them started.

I used CTR for water damage at my home. The team was very responsive, they had someone onsite with hours to assess and get the mitigation started. The technicians took great care of the house while in, setting up a walking pad down into the basement to keep our floors and carpets clean! I was impressed with the communication and knowledge shared with me during the event and through out the entire process. They even worked with my insurance to ensure all details were shared throughout the process. Overall, I was quite satisfied and would recommend them to anyone needing a reliable, professional service for water damage.
