Why Fairbury Calls Us for Emergency Water Extraction

Emergency Water Extraction Solutions
Here's how extraction is handled by surface.
Carpet & Pad Extraction
Weighted stand-on extractors compress carpet and pad to force out trapped water. Done right, carpet can often be dried in place after clean-water losses.
Hardwood Floor Extraction
Floor drying systems use suction mats to draw water out of hardwood. Quick extraction reduces cupping and buckling.
Tile, Vinyl & Concrete Extraction
Squeegees and wands clear water from tile, vinyl, and concrete, including grout lines and seams. Some vinyl plank must be lifted to reach water beneath it.
Truck-Mount vs. Portable Units
Truck-mounts provide maximum power for big jobs with good access. Portable units reach high-rise units and upstairs rooms.
Post-Extraction Moisture Check
After extraction, readings show how much water remains in walls, subfloor, and baseboards. Air movers and dehumidifiers go in where readings call for them.

What Callers Say About Fast Extraction
These callers all had water soaking into floors at the worst possible time.
Our upstairs washer overflowed at midnight and soaked the hallway carpet. The contractor used a weighted extractor and saved the carpet; only the pad had to be replaced.
— Erin S., FairburyOur new oak floors were wet from a dishwasher leak. Drying mats went down quickly and the boards settled back flat.
— Paul D., FairburyWe live on the fourth floor, so I didn't think a truck-mount would work. Portable extractors handled it without a problem.
— Grace W., FairburyEmergency Water Extraction Questions, Answered
How quickly should water be extracted?
Within an hour or two is ideal. Every extra hour lets water travel deeper into flooring and walls.
Can wet carpet be saved?
Clean-water carpet usually can be saved with fast, thorough extraction. Pad is often replaced, and contaminated carpet is not salvageable.
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?
Frequently, if extraction and drying start fast. Floor drying systems draw water out through the boards, and minor cupping often flattens once the wood dries. Severe or long-term soaking may require replacement.
Will I need dehumidifiers after extraction?
In most cases, yes. Remaining moisture in walls and subfloor needs a few days of controlled drying.
