Heavy Rain or Leaks? Skilled Water Extraction Protects Your Home

Garage flooding is a frequent problem for Mercer Island homeowners, especially during the rainy season. Water can quickly build up from storms, poor drainage, or a leaking water heater. Since garages are often lower than the rest of the house, they're more likely to flood, which can cause damage when not taken care of quickly.

In these cases, water extraction is key. Standing water can damage your garage's foundation, lead to mold growth, and ruin personal belongings. The quicker you act, the better chance you have of avoiding severe and long-lasting damage.

How Flood Water Affects Your Garage

Floodwater doesn't just stay on the surface—it seeps into the materials in your garage. The floors, walls, and foundation can absorb water, which leads to long-term issues. For example, waterlogged foundations can crack and deteriorate over time, weakening your home's structure.

Items stored inside your garage, such as tools, bikes, and cars, are also at risk. Water exposure can cause rust and corrosion, and the presence of mold can damage materials and create an unhealthy environment. This is why immediate water extraction is so important—waiting too long can lead to more costly repairs.

DIY Water Removal Often Falls Short

While it might seem easier to try removing water on your own, household equipment like shop vacuums or mops often isn't enough. These tools can only handle surface water, leaving moisture trapped in walls, floors, and other porous materials. This hidden moisture can cause mold and mildew to develop, which can spread to other parts of your home and become a health hazard.

Professional water extraction is the most reliable way to fully remove water and prevent further damage. Our trained team uses specialized equipment to dry out all areas affected by flooding, ensuring no moisture is left behind.
