Comprehensive Behind Wall Water Extraction Offered in Lake Lucerne
Post-Extraction Wall Sanitization
Treatment is done on dry surfaces, after removal and drying, so it does not trap moisture inside the wall.
Wall Leak Source Identification
Finding the source matters because drying is wasted if the wall keeps getting wet. The source is noted for your plumber or roofer.
Wet Drywall
A meter shows exactly how high the water wicked up the drywall, so the cut is made only where it is needed.
Moisture Barrier Installation
Some exterior walls have a plastic vapor barrier behind the drywall. After drying, a damaged barrier is replaced so the wall works as designed.
Emergency Behind Wall Water Removal
Emergency removal starts with shutting off the water, then opening the wall where needed and extracting water from the cavity and floor.

Soft Spots When Pressing Wall
Drywall that gives when pressed has been weakened by water and may need to be cut out.
Dampness on Wall Surfaces

How Behind Wall Water Extraction Works in Lake Lucerne
Step 1: Emergency Assessment and Containment
