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.
Our District Heights, MD truck-mount units pull significantly more water per hour than portable extraction gear.
We identify the contamination category before extraction to determine the correct safety protocol.
We use specialty injection systems designed to dry hardwood from underneath rather than defaulting to tear-out.
Our District Heights, MD extraction reports give your insurer verifiable data, not a vague summary.
Water Extraction is a methodology as much as a piece of equipment, and here's how our District Heights, MD crews approach it.
High-volume truck-mount units handle standing water across large areas fast.
We determine contamination level first, since blackwater requires PPE and disposal steps clean water doesn't.
We extract carpet and padding as distinct materials since they hold and release moisture differently.
Injection drying systems pull moisture from beneath hardwood planks without pulling up the floor.
We check subfloor moisture at multiple points, not just where the visible water pooled.
You receive documented proof of extraction completion for your own records or an insurance claim.
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.
Category testing and a written estimate come before any pump starts running.
