PuroClean QuickDry System™

Our QuickDry systems is designed to dry affected structural materials and contents and in a timely and effective manner can include:

  • A thorough assessment and inspection of the structure to determine what’s wet and how wet structural materials and contents are with infrared cameras and moisture meters.
  • The removal of standing water.
  • The application of specialized drying equipment.
  • Daily inspections and monitoring until materials have reached their pre-loss condition and established drying goals.

During our Process of Water Removal: The Layton certified water damage restoration specialists are there to make sure that the obvious and hidden water damaged areas of your home and property are restored – they do this while giving special care to all of your belongings and property.

Mold and Odor Removal: Water losses not handled in a timely manner and dried down quickly can lead to additional damage such as microbial growth, as well as cause structural components to lose their integrity, possibly impact indoor air quality, and may ultimately result in compromised occupant health issues to develop. PuroClean’s IICRC certified technicians follow industry best practices to properly remediate mold that has infected and/or damaged and return the property to a pre-loss condition. Once a scope of remediation and repair has been established, they will implement engineering controls and containment to prevent cross-contamination to unaffected sections of a building utilizing negative pressure with HEPA air filtration devices. A remediation protocol is developed to remove contaminants by:

  • The removal of compromised materials and contents per industry standards.
  • A thorough cleaning using HEPA air filter devices and HEPA vacuums.
  • A thorough cleaning of all surfaces with cleaning solutions that can include EPA registered disinfectants, followed by another HEPA vacuuming of all surfaces.

A lot of people use bleach to clean mold; however, this is an ineffective method as bleach does not kill the spores; it only bleaches them. PuroClean’s goal is to return your property to a safe and clean condition.

Odors are an indicator that something could still be wet. If something has a musty pungent odor it can indicate microbial issues that can create MVOC’s (microbial volatile organic compounds) and can cause health related issues. PuroClean’s approach is to follow industry standards to develop the right scope of repair for your home or business, which includes employing specialized equipment, cleaning practices, followed by recommending a clearance test to ensure your property has reached the desired goal.

Ongoing Communication: Our Water damage restoration experts will work with you and your insurance provider throughout the Layton water damage restoration process, to ensure you both know what is happening, what to expect and what you can do.

Water Damage Restoration Assessments:

  • Our technicians will first conduct a thorough assessment, perform daily inspections and monitoring to develop drying strategies and answer: What’s wet, how wet is it, is it drying, and has it reached its dry standard.
  • The assessment helps determine what damaged material may need to be removed due to structural integrity issues, damage not restorable, or contamination. Our goal is to dry all materials such as drywall, wood, carpet and padding, baseboards, furniture, insulation, furniture, upholstery, and more, providing they are not contaminated, or structurally compromised according to industry standards.

Layton Emergency Water Extraction

We begin by extracting any standing water present on your premises using specially designed equipment strategically placed to extract all water from the area.

  • The first step calls for immediate water removal through our advanced pumping machines. Once the water is removed, all damaged items and materials will be removed and stored or discarded.
  • Upon completion, the equipment will be removed and the water will be discarded elsewhere by PuroClean’s employees.

Drying and Dehumidification

Once all areas requiring this process have been identified, they are isolated and prepped for drying and dehumidification.

  1. Relocation of belongings and upholstery will be necessary to ensure that the process can be thoroughly completed.
  2. Our professionals will place powerful air movers, focusing on the most affected areas. The most highly affected areas will be the focus, and trapped water will be removed by the machines. These machines are very loud.
  3. The water is extracted into the air by these powerful air movers, which are specially designed to increase evaporation in the given space and create airflow so dehumidifiers can be most effective. Our technicians dispose of the water in a separate location.
  4. Only after monitoring humidity levels and confirming the levels have returned to normal, your items will be returned to the original location.

Final Cleaning Processes

Odors can form in a carpet that has been water damaged very easily due to soils and potentially from other issues such as mildew and may spread beyond the affected area to your entire home or business. PuroClean’s professional process of cleaning, deodorizing and spot removal will safely and effectively remove soils and organics that are odor-causing.

  • Our technicians will begin with a complete inspection and dry vacuuming of your carpet.
  • To properly repair the affected carpet, where needed, your furniture may require repositioning.
  • Pre-treatments may be required for heavily soiled areas, spots, or pet odors.
  • Post cleaning treatments can include textile or fiber protection, the cleaning of hard surfaces and contents that can help protect and prolong the value of your property.

PuroClean’s Dos and Don’ts of Water Damage restoration in Layton

Mitigating and restoring water damage in Layton is one of our main goals. However, our primary concern is the safety of all parties involved in our process, technicians and customers alike. Follow these tips to reduce setback chances due to roof leaks, faulty plumbing and AC, rains, floods, etc.

To Do:

  • Shut Off Water: Shut off your home’s water source and call a plumber for repairs.
  • Use Caution: Watch your step, as floors may be slippery. Also, watch for trip and fall hazards and for exposed electrical wires.
  • Water removal: Mop as much water as possible. In cool weather, open windows to help speed up drying and in hot weather, only if it’s safe to do so, turn on your A/C.
  • Upholstery should be propped up: Any loose cushions and upholstered furniture should be propped up in a dry place.
  • Deal with Area Rugs and Obstacles: Remove any area rugs and pick up all items that are sitting on the floor.
  • Dry Storage Containers: Please open and dry all of your wet storage containers, bins, or suitcases. If possible, have them dry in the sun.
  • Protect Your Valuables: Paintings, artwork, and any other valuables should be relocated to a safe, dry place.
  • Dry Clothing: Immediately dry all garments. Hang leather and fur goods to dry at room temperature.
  • Protect Your Furniture: Place aluminum foil or plastic underneath furniture legs on wet carpeting. Open (but do not force) drawers and cabinet doors to dry out the inside.
  • Call PuroClean Immediately: Call PuroClean of Layton. Our certified techs are highly skilled in Layton water damage repair.

What You Should Not Do:

  • DON’T VACUUM: You should not use a common household vacuum cleaner. Only use a wet vac, the type specifically made to handle water.
  • Don’t Touch Plugs or Outlets: DON’T PLUG OR UNPLUG any electrical appliances or touch anything that is already plugged in.
  • DO NOT USE APPLIANCES: DO NOT USE TVs, radios, computers, ceiling fans, or any other electrical appliances while you are standing on wet floors or carpets, particularly tile or concrete floors.
  • Do not let it get too hot: Try to keep wet areas as cool as possible – hot, moist areas promote mold growth

Does homeowners insurance cover flooding or water damage? Do you work with insurance companies to minimize the cost and hassle?

Homeowners insurance provides coverage for sudden and accidental damage (such as water heater ruptures or pipe bursts). However, flood damage, no matter the water source, is NOT covered by standard homeowners policies. Also, a standard homeowners insurance policy will not cover water damage that results from a lack of maintenance.

PuroClean Emergency Flood and Related Water Damage Restoration Services


Most people don’t realize that even a small amount of water can cause considerable damage to their homes or property. Water can be a very damaging element. When water finds its way into properties the result is often extensive water damage, structural damage, and mold growth. Thus, knowing how to spot trouble areas to prevent water damage in your home or commercial property is critical.

Call the experts at PuroClean if your property is affected by water damage caused by floods, broken pipes, backed-up sewer lines, leaking faucets or toilets, air conditioning units, old water heaters, or any other kind of water damage in your home or business. We are here day or night 24/7.

Most property owners have never experienced water damage in their homes or business. Statistics show that 1 in 55 homes will suffer from some sort of water damage every year. We often get calls from homeowners experiencing wet or flooded floors in their property, including wet carpets, tile, or wet wood floors. These floods are often caused by freezes, leaky pipes or appliances, old and rusty water heaters, and clogged air conditioning systems, or they can be caused by natural disasters.

Most Common Reasons For Water Damage In Your Property


Storm Damage and Flash Floods

Water damage may strike your property due to natural catastrophes such as tornadoes, hurricanes, and other phenomena. Strong winds and heavy rains can cause harm to your roof, causing rainwater to drain directly into your home or company. Worse, severe weather can sometimes result in flash flooding, particularly if your property is located in a flood-prone zone. Read our guide for what to do when flash floods strike.

Overflowing Bathtubs, Sinks, and Washing Machines

You would be surprised to know that at times, people living in multiple story units, forget to turn the water off as they are preparing a bath and it overflows, other times washing machines fail, overflowing. These events cause flooding on the floors where these units are installed and at times they end up leaking from upstairs to the units below. These events end up flooding inside the walls, floors, and damaging drywall and ceiling as well as other home components. Head over to our blog to find out what actions to take if your washing machine overflows.

Pipes and Supply Line Leaks

The pipes on your property carry water throughout, so a leak or puncture can lead to significant damage. A leaking kitchen sink pipe might allow enough water to flow into the cabinet below it, potentially causing damage. A leaking pipe inside the walls may make things worse. A leak like this can cause significant water damage and the formation of a mold colony because the entire wall is wetted. Worse yet, if there is a leak in your plumbing supply line or drainage pipe in the soil beneath your concrete slab, you’ll be out of luck. Learn how to detect if there is a leak leading to water damage within your walls.

Frozen Pipes

We have had many events where people looking for a place to hang their People call PuroClean when their pipes freeze. Frozen pipes are a common issue in the colder months that encounter. As the temperatures get lower, the water in pipes that are not well insulated can freeze. Water expands when it freezes, which damages the water lines, creating leaky pipes, and flooding the house. Read our tips on how to prevent pipes from freezing, and find tips about winter storm safety for homeowners.

Blocked Drains and Sump Pumps

Hair, grease accumulation, toiletries, dirt, and other foreign objects can obstruct the drainpipe and prevent regular drainage. When clogged drains are not addressed promptly, they may easily back up and cause flooding and damage to your home’s interior. An inefficient, obstructed, damaged, or failing sump pump will leave your basement dealing with large quantities of water that cannot be drained. Being unable to evacuate the water can lead to costly flood damage. Here are some tips to help maintain your sump pump.

Extinguishing a Fire

Many people wouldn’t think of it, but a common side-effect of fire is dealing with heavy water damage. First Responders and emergency sprinkler systems douse the entirety of the property under considerable amounts of water in an effort to stop the fire. We also have had many events where people looking for a place to hang their clothes, use the pipes for the sprinkler system, which triggers the sprinklers, flooding many floors at times. Read our list of facts about home sprinkler systems.

Roof Leaks

The physical integrity of your roof is vital to maintaining conditions on the inside of your home. Over time, natural wear and tear will cause roofs to weaken and leaks to form. When the roof is breached, precipitation will enter your home and begin to cause damage in its wake. If the water damage is not addressed within 24-48 hours after the intrusion, the standing water and buildup of humidity may lead to mold growth. Find out what actions you should take if you discover a leak in your roof.

Ice Dams

Ice dams form on roofs during a cycle of snow precipitating, melting, then refreezing. This is caused by the heat of the attic rising upwards and causing the frozen snow to melt into liquid water. The liquid water runs off towards the edges of the roof but refreezes in the sub-freezing temperatures, resulting in a buildup of ice along the edges of the roof. This damming effect will then cause snow and ice to build up and put your roof in major jeopardy of being overloaded and damaged. Read our guide towards the most effective means of preventing ice dams on your roof.
