Can a slow leak cause major damage in a condo?

Yes. Slow leaks can soak subfloors and ceilings below for weeks before anyone sees a sign.

How is emergency flood cleanup started in a condo?

The water is shut off, power near the water is made safe and extraction begins in the wettest areas.

What is the goal of professional moisture removal?

To dry floors, walls and ceilings fully so repairs do not trap moisture that causes odors and stains later.

Flooring and underlayment that trap water are lifted and bagged, and the subfloor is dried and checked.

How quickly should I call for emergency water removal in a condo?

As soon as you find the water. It can reach the unit below within hours, and wet materials get harder to save.
