Below is the actual technical scope behind a Water Extraction job in Huntington, WV.
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.
This specialty method can save original hardwood that would otherwise require full tear-out.
We check subfloor moisture at multiple points, not just where the visible water pooled.
Verification reports give a data-backed answer to whether extraction actually solved the problem.
We ask enough questions to send the right-sized extraction unit on the first trip.
Equipment is pre-loaded based on dispatch notes, so there's no delay on arrival.
You'll know the classification and cost before work starts.
We don't sign off until logged readings hit the target, not just until it looks dry.
