Not all water pickup is equal — a shop vac and a truck-mount extraction unit produce very different outcomes on the same flooded room.
We classify every loss as Category 1, 2, or 3 before extraction begins, then document readings throughout the job.

We deploy truck-mount pumps for anything beyond a small, contained spill.
Water is tested and classified as Category 1, 2, or 3 before extraction protocol is finalized.
Carpet and pad get separately assessed — pad usually can't be saved, but carpet often can with fast, thorough extraction.
We monitor injection drying progress with moisture meters calibrated for wood species.
We check subfloor moisture at multiple points, not just where the visible water pooled.
Every job closes with a written extraction report showing before-and-after moisture readings.
A quick call helps us determine truck-mount versus portable equipment needs before we arrive.
A technician heads out immediately with truck-mount or portable units as needed.

Extraction continues until documented moisture readings confirm the job is complete.
