Signs to look for

When to call us for office water cleanup

With a crew geared up, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

Drop ceiling tile over a workstation row is sagging or stained

For an always-ready response, a sagging tile is holding water and can drop without warning, so removal is a crew task.

Carpet tile seams are lifting or edges have curled in a walkway

Because we answer at any hour, carpet tile is held by a release adhesive that softens when it stays wet.

A dark line along the base of a cubicle panel

With a crew geared up, fabric wrapped panels wick upward from the floor and the core behind the fabric holds it.

Water is visible at a floor box or a raised access floor panel

Because we answer at any hour, floor boxes carry live power and data, so nobody should open one.

Banker boxes on the bottom shelf of the file room feel cool or soft

Because we answer at any hour, paper wicks fast and swells, and a bottom row can pull water several inches up the box.

The server closet smells humid or the rack feels damp

For an always-ready response, a UPS, meaning an uninterruptible power supply, keeps the gear plugged into it live even after the panel is off, so treat the rack as energized until your engineer confirms otherwise.

What happens

How we handle office water cleanup

Our always-ready team adjusts the work to what got wet, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be saved.

An electrical walk before anyone steps into the wet area

For an always-ready response, power to the affected area goes off through your building engineer or electrician first.

Wet electronics isolated and never energized

Computers, a network switch, a patch panel and anything on a server rack stay off and get lifted clear of the floor by our always-ready team.

A moisture map drawn on your floor plan

So mobilization stays on track, a moisture meter reads the wall bases, the slab and the panel cores, and a thermal imaging camera shows the pattern above the ceiling.

Priority triage of paper records

For an always-ready response, wet files are sorted by how much they matter and how wet they are, then boxed flat and staged out of the humid air.

Carpet tile lifted, cleaned, dried and relaid

So mobilization stays on track, tiles come up in numbered runs, get cleaned and dried off the slab, then go back once the concrete reads dry.

Workstation and cubicle triage

Because we answer at any hour, panels are lifted off the floor, fabric is cleaned and the core is metered from the bottom edge.

What to expect

What to expect from our always-ready team

Here is how we ordinarily handle office water cleanup near the United States.

  1. 1

    You call and let our standby desk know the floor, the suite and what is above it

    For an always-ready response, offices stack, so the tenant above and the tenant below both matter. So mobilization stays on track, let our standby desk know whether the water came from a ceiling, a core wall or the slab.

    Your call
  2. 2

    What to stop doing while our always-ready team loads

    For an always-ready response, do not power anything on and do not let staff carry a computer out of the wet area.

    +10 minutes
  3. 3

    Two phone calls we will ask you to make

    Because we answer at any hour, your building engineer kills power to the area and finds the shut off. Because we answer at any hour, your IT vendor is told there is water near gear, so they can plan rather than react.

    +30 minutes
  4. 4

    Moisture map on crew arrival, suite by suite

    Because we answer at any hour, we walk it with your facilities manager, meter everything, and mark the wet area on your floor plan.

    On arrival
  5. 5

    Extraction and records triage while the floor is empty

    For an always-ready response, the wet work runs off-hours where you want it to, so desks are not being moved around your staff.

    First evening
  6. 6

    Carpet tile up, ceiling tile down, sealed work area closed

    For an always-ready response, numbered tile runs come up, wet ceiling tile is removed by crew, and the zip wall goes in.

    Day 1 to 2
  7. 7

    Readings tracked while your business runs

    So mobilization stays on track, we take daily readings at the slab, the wall bases and the panel cores, and shift gear as the map shrinks.

    Day 2 to 5

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

With a crew geared up, we explain the recommended work and price before you approve the job. With a crew geared up, these examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situationWhat the estimate may includeTypical range
Single office suite, clean water, one or two roomsNationwide cost range. Extraction, carpet tile lift and relay, and three to four days of drying.$1,500 to $5,000
Several suites or about half a floor, clean water, three to five days of dryingNationwide cost range. Includes sealed work area, ceiling tile removal and off-hours extraction.$6,000 to $20,000
Office cleanup priced by affected area, clean waterNationwide cost range. The commercial band, and the usual way office work scales once more than one suite is wet.$4 to $9 per square foot
Office cleanup priced by affected area, contaminated waterNationwide cost range. Applies where a drain or sewer backup reached the suite.$9 to $18 per square foot
Carpet tile lifted, cleaned, dried and relaidNationwide cost range. Cheaper than replacement whenever the tiles themselves are sound.$2 to $5 per square foot
Server closet or IT room drying with sealed work areaNationwide cost range. Hand work around live gear and very low humidity air.$1,500 to $6,000
Workstation cleaning and drying, per workstationNationwide cost range. Panels, worksurface and pedestal file handled as one unit.$75 to $250
Wet record handling and prioritized boxing, per boxNationwide cost range for handling and boxing only. Sending the contents out for vacuum freeze drying is priced on its own.$30 to $75
After hours or overnight dispatch chargeNationwide cost range. Common on office work because most of it happens outside trading hours.$100 to $400
  • Affected floor area, set by meter
    Work plan is the wet area on the floor plan, not the size of the visible puddle. That footprint drives both labor hours and gear counts.

  • Business hours versus after hours work
    With a crew geared up, evening and weekend crews cost more per hour, and calling a crew out beyond normal hours adds a national dispatch charge of $100 to $400.

  • Carpet tile versus glue down broadloom
    Carpet tile can in many cases be lifted, cleaned, dried and relaid, which is cheaper than replacement. Glue down broadloom over a wet slab ordinarily has to come out.

  • Whether IT space is involved
    For an always-ready response, a server closet needs sealed work area, low humidity air and careful hand work around a live rack.

  • Volume of wet paper records
    For an always-ready response, boxing, staging and inventorying files is labor, and anything sent for vacuum freeze drying is priced separately.

  • Workstation count in the wet zone
    With a crew geared up, each workstation means panels lifted, a worksurface checked and a pedestal file emptied.

Why timing counts

What can happen when the area stays wet

For an always-ready response, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

Wet electronics that get switched on are destroyed twice

For an always-ready response, water plus power drives corrosion across a board in seconds, and it voids the honest option of cleaning and testing.

Paper records have the shortest clock in the building

So mobilization stays on track, wet paper swells, ink bleeds and pages fuse into blocks that cannot be separated later.

Carpet tile adhesive keeps failing after the pile feels dry

So mobilization stays on track, moisture trapped between tile and slab softens the release adhesive and telegraphs every seam.

Cubicle panel cores hold water and then hold the smell

With a crew geared up, the core behind the fabric dries far slower than the surface, so odor returns whenever the floor gets humid.

Common questions

Questions about office water cleanup

How much does office water damage cleanup cost?

For an always-ready response, as national estimates, one or two rooms of clean water in most cases runs $1,500 to $5,000. For an always-ready response, several suites or half a floor is in many cases $6,000 to $20,000.

Can we keep working while you dry the office?

Because we answer at any hour, ordinarily yes, on part of the floor. For an always-ready response, we contain the wet zone with zip walls, run air scrubbers inside it, and agree a temporary seating plan with your facilities manager.

With a crew geared up, our computers were sitting in water. Can they be saved?

For an always-ready response, sometimes, but only if nobody powers them on. So mobilization stays on track, water plus power drives corrosion on the spot and removes the option.

Is it safe to go into the server closet?

So mobilization stays on track, treat it as live until your building engineer says otherwise. Because we answer at any hour, a UPS or battery backup keeps the gear plugged into it live even after the panel is off, so the rack stays energized until your engineer confirms otherwise.

Can wet files and records be saved?

With a crew geared up, in many cases yes, provided they are handled on the day it happens. Because we answer at any hour, we sort by priority, box them flat, and get them out of humid air fast.

Do you have to lift the carpet tile?

Because we answer at any hour, where the slab under it is wet, yes. Because we answer at any hour, tiles come up in numbered runs, get cleaned and dried off the floor, then go back down.

Do you work at night and on weekends?

So mobilization stays on track, yes, and on office jobs it is in many cases the better plan. So mobilization stays on track, extraction, tile lifting and ceiling work are disruptive, so we schedule them when the floor is empty.
