How it's done

What East Saint Louis burst pipe cleanup looks like

2

Submersible pumps and commercial wet vacuums remove standing water from East Saint Louis basements and crawl spaces. Crews size equipment to handle both burst-pipe volume and any sewer backup water to prevent saturation of structure and materials.

3

Continuous Drying and Mold Prevention

Air movers and dehumidifiers run 24 hours per day throughout East Saint Louis properties. Crews apply antimicrobial treatments to exposed wood and remove saturated insulation to prevent mold colonization in the damp Metro East environment.
