Extraction Work Through Our Network
Different floors need different extraction methods.
Carpet & Pad Extraction
Stand-on extraction tools squeeze water from both carpet and pad. With clean water, thorough extraction often saves the carpet.
Hardwood Floor Extraction
Hardwood floors get specialized drying panels or mats that pull moisture up through the boards under suction. Fast action can limit cupping and crowning.
Tile, Vinyl & Concrete Extraction
Squeegees and wands clear water from tile, vinyl, and concrete, including grout lines and seams. Water trapped under vinyl plank may need boards lifted.
Truck-Mount vs. Portable Units
Truck-mounted units deliver the strongest suction and are ideal for large areas close to the driveway. Portable units reach high-rise units and upstairs rooms.
Post-Extraction Moisture Check
Moisture meters confirm what's still wet once extraction is done. Drying equipment is set where it's needed.

How quickly should water be extracted?
As fast as possible, ideally within the first hour or two. Water keeps wicking into pad, tack strip, baseboards, and drywall, and the longer it sits the more materials need removal.
Can wet carpet be saved?
Often, if the water was clean and it's extracted quickly with weighted tools. The pad is more likely to need replacement. Carpet soaked by sewage or floodwater is generally discarded.
What is the difference between extraction and drying?
Extraction mechanically removes liquid water from materials. Drying uses air movers and dehumidifiers to evaporate and capture the moisture that's left. Good extraction shortens drying time significantly.
Can hardwood floors be saved after water damage?
Often yes, with quick action. Suction mats and dehumidification can reverse mild cupping, though badly buckled boards may need to be replaced.
Will I need dehumidifiers after extraction?
Usually. Extraction gets most of the water, but walls, subfloor, and baseboards still hold moisture. Dehumidifiers and air movers finish the job over the next few days.
