Water Extraction Services by Material

The method depends on the floor and the water. Clean water in carpet calls for different tools than gray water on hardwood.

T

High-Volume Truck-Mount Removal

For large areas, a truck-mounted unit with strong vacuum lift pulls water through long hoses, removing far more per pass than any portable machine.

W

Pulling Water From Under Carpet

Ride-on or stand-on weighted extraction tools compress the carpet and pad, forcing out water a wand alone cannot reach. This often lets the carpet stay in place.

H

Hardwood Water Removal

Specialized floor mats connected to high-pressure vacuum draw moisture up through the boards and the gaps between them, giving solid hardwood a real chance at survival.

S

Subfloor and Pad Removal Decisions

Clean Category 1 water often allows the carpet to be saved with new pad. Category 2 water usually means pad removal. Category 3 water means carpet and pad both come out.

M

Verified Extraction

The pro takes moisture meter readings before and after extraction so you can see the difference and the drying phase starts from a documented baseline.

Rapid dispatch process

What People Said About the Extraction

Three rooms of soaked carpet after a washer hose split. The weighted tool saved the carpet. Only one room needed new pad.

Kayla J.Washing machine hose failure

I had been running a wet vac for hours. The pro got more water out in his first pass than I did all afternoon.

Derek F.Laundry room overflow

Our oak floors were wet from the dishwasher. They used suction mats on the boards for a couple of days and the floor flattened back out.

Nora B.Dishwasher leak, hardwood kitchen

Before-and-after meter readings and a written price up front. Very clear process.
