How Water Extraction Is Done on Different Floors

Carpet, hardwood, tile, and concrete each hold water differently, so the pro picks tools based on what is wet and what kind of water it is.

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

Stand-On Pad Extraction

Weighted tools press down on the carpet and draw water out of the pad underneath, which can save the carpet.

H

Hardwood Floor Extraction Mats

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

When Pad Has to Go

Water category decides what stays. Clean water may only cost you the pad, while sewage or floodwater means the carpet goes too.

M

Measuring What Came Out

Readings before and after show how much water was removed and set the starting point for drying.

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.
