Water extraction for Nickerson homes and businesses

Water does not wait. A burst pipe, a backed-up drain or a storm that floods the basement can soak carpet and pad within hours, and the longer it sits, the more it spreads into floors, walls and furniture.

We pull the water out of the carpet, pad and floors with extraction equipment, then set air movers to dry what is left. When the water is gone, we clean the carpet, so the room is not just dry but clean again.

One reviewer wrote that Brett came out the same day they called, even with flooding all over the area, and gave them names of other contractors for the work he does not do. If water damage reaches drywall, framing or mold, we will tell you who to call next.

Why water extraction matters in Nickerson

Nickerson saw serious flooding in late May 2019, with standing water downtown, washed-out streets and residents pumping water from basements. If water reaches your carpet or basement, call (620) 200-1546. We extract it and help dry the space.

In late May 2019, flooding left inches of standing water downtown, washed out streets and had residents pumping water out of their basements. Nickerson sits on the Arkansas River, and the river valley's sandy ground tracks into homes all year. Wheat harvest in June and July adds chaff and field dust.

Nickerson has some of the oldest housing in the area. Census estimates show about half of its homes were built before 1940, and most are single-family houses. We clean homes and businesses across Nickerson. Nickerson is about 12 miles northwest of Hutchinson.

About Nickerson, Kansas

Nickerson was laid out in 1872, when the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway reached the spot, and it was named for Thomas Nickerson, the railroad's president. The first post office ran out of a sod house starting in 1873. A wooden bridge crossed the Arkansas River by 1879, and Nickerson was incorporated that June.

In 1899 the Legislature created Reno County High School here, and Nickerson College also operated in town. By 1912 Nickerson was the second largest town in Reno County, with mills, grain elevators, two banks and an opera house. Houses in Nickerson were used for scenes in the 1955 film Picnic.
