Rapid Response When Disaster Strikes Your Property
Rapid Water Rescue Pros was founded on a simple principle: when water enters your home, speed and precision are the only things that stop permanent destruction. A burst water heater can release hundreds of gallons of water in hours, saturating subfloors and breeding toxic mold colonies within 48 hours.
Our mobile fleet is outfitted with industrial truck-mounted vacuum systems, FLIR infrared thermal moisture mapping cameras, and commercial LGR dehumidifiers. We do not just pump water; we isolate electrical and gas dangers, detach failed appliances, clean contaminated subflooring, and work directly with your homeowners insurance provider so you have zero stress.
Why Homeowners Trust Our Dispatch Team
Every technician follows strict Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification protocols.
Locally dispatched units stationed near major metropolitan arteries ensure lightning-fast response.
We prepare Xactimate estimates and negotiate directly with your property insurance claims adjuster.

What Our Customers Say
Real homeowners and business managers who experienced rapid water extraction from our team.
"Our 75-gallon water heater split at 3:00 AM on a Sunday. Water was pouring into our finished basement. Rapid Water Rescue Pros had a technician at our door in 45 minutes. They pumped out the water, unhooked the tank, and hauled it away. Saved our hardwood flooring!"
"The crew arrived equipped with thermal cameras and moisture meters. They showed me exactly where the water had traveled inside the wall studs. Best part: they handled the entire insurance billing process directly with State Farm."
"Upfront pricing with no surprise after-hours fees. They safely turned off the gas, capped the water lines, drained the tank sediment, and hauled the old heater to a recycling facility. Professional, polite, and ultra-fast."
Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about emergency water extraction, water heater removal, or insurance billing? Here are answers to common questions.
Immediately locate the cold water shut-off valve on the pipe entering the top of your water heater and turn it clockwise (or perpendicular for ball valves). Next, turn off the circuit breaker for electric heaters, or rotate the gas control knob to 'OFF' for gas units. Then call Rapid Water Rescue Pros right away at (866) 751-9896 so our emergency extraction crew can be dispatched before water ruins your flooring and drywall.
Our dispatch teams are stationed regionally and arrive on site in 60 minutes or less, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Because water starts causing irreversible structural damage and mold within 24 to 48 hours, emergency response time is our highest priority.
In most cases, yes. Standard homeowners insurance policies typically cover the sudden and accidental water damage caused by a ruptured water heater, including emergency water extraction, structural drying, and drywall or flooring repairs. While insurance usually does not pay for the old water heater tank itself, it covers the resulting thousands of dollars in water mitigation. We document all moisture readings and submit claims directly to your carrier.
Yes. Our team handles complete water heater removal, from disconnecting gas and electrical lines to draining contaminated tank sediment, unbolting seismic strapping, carrying the unit out of your home, and hauling it to a certified appliance recycling facility.
We do not guess. Our certified technicians utilize FLIR infrared thermal imaging cameras and non-invasive digital moisture meters to trace every path water traveled. We map the moisture boundary behind baseboards, under hardwood, and beneath tile to guarantee your property reaches certified dry standard.
Warning signs include water pooling around the bottom pan, rust-colored or metallic-smelling hot water, loud popping or rumbling sounds caused by boiling sediment at the bottom of the tank, moisture or corrosion along fittings, and any water heater that is more than 8 to 12 years old.
