Water Damage Restoration - Done in the Right Order

Each stage is performed by the independent restoration contractor the call reaches; IICRC S500 is the industry standard that describes them.

  1. Step 1: Extraction

    Standing water is pumped out before it can travel further into drywall, subfloor, and framing. Speed here changes the scope of everything that follows.

  2. Step 2: Moisture mapping

    Meters read the material, not the air, so the wet edge is found even when the surface already looks dry. The map sets what has to come out and what can stay.

  3. Step 3: Drying

    Air movers and dehumidifiers run as a closed system until readings inside the material reach a dry standard, not until a calendar date arrives.

  4. Step 4: Verification

    The same points are re-read before equipment comes out. Rebuild starts only after the structure, not just the surface, is confirmed dry.

What drives water into buildings in Bountiful

Our local pros provide water damage restoration services in Bountiful and the surrounding area, wherever in town the call comes from. A Wasatch Front city on a bench below steep canyons, where twenty-eight inches of precipitation fall in a year and debris flows out of those canyons are a recognized hazard.

Housing stock

Only 24 percent of the housing here went up after 1989; the median construction year is 1973. Three quarters of the housing predates 1990, on benches built from material that past flows carried out of the canyons above. That is a useful thing to know about a building site: the ground itself is evidence of what the canyons have delivered before.

Climate and water risk

The nearest long-term record — BOUNTIFUL BENCH, 1.4 miles out — puts the annual normal at 27.58 inches, with April heaviest at 3.74. April brings the wettest month, and the mechanism that matters is the canyons rather than the rainfall total. Intense rain or rapid snowmelt on steep burned or unstable slopes can send a flow of water, mud and rock down a canyon mouth onto the bench below.

Common water damage problems in Bountiful

  • Canyon mouths capable of delivering water, mud and rock onto the bench below
  • Bench ground built from exactly the material those flows have carried before
  • Rapid snowmelt on steep slopes producing flows without any rainfall
  • Irrigation and roof water wetting soils that foundations assume stay dry

    Groundwater & Basement Intrusion

    Basement seepage, failed sumps, and hydrostatic pressure against the foundation are extracted and dried, and the path from the ground is identified so the loss does not repeat.

Frequently asked questions

How much warning does a debris flow give?

Very little, and it is a different hazard from ordinary flooding. Intense rain or rapid melt on steep ground can mobilize water, mud and rock together, and it arrives at a canyon mouth within minutes carrying material that ordinary drainage cannot pass. Preparation has to be based on conditions in the canyon above rather than on rainfall at the house, and structures at a canyon mouth are exposed in a way neighbors a few streets away are not.

Does a fire in the canyon above change things?

Substantially, and for several years. Burned slopes shed far more water and produce far more debris, so flows that were rare become likelier and larger. Where fire has burned in a canyon above your address, the historical record understates the risk while the ground recovers. That is worth knowing specifically rather than in general, because exposure here is canyon by canyon.

Should sprinklers run against the foundation?

Not close to it. Soils on these benches change volume as moisture changes, and foundations are built assuming the backfill stays relatively stable. Irrigation against a wall keeps that ground wet continuously rather than occasionally. Moving heads back several feet and extending downspouts well clear costs almost nothing and does more for a foundation than most structural work.
