Flood Pro Uses Industry Leading Equipment and Drying Systems

The most advanced structural drying systems on the market are used by Flood Pro. We have an extensive collection of the best equipment and meters available to find the water, and to make sure we are properly drying your structure. Each technician arrives with an Inspection Kit to perform a thorough inspection of the affected areas of your home or business.

Our water drying methods can save you 50-75% over other companies. While other companies readily tear out wet materials like carpet and dry wall, our expertise is “Drying in Place.” Typically we can dry the structure and contents of a flooded home in three to five days. There are times when flooring and materials must be replaced. However, items that seem beyond repair can often be restored when the restoration process is started without delay. Faster drying results in lowered expenses.
