The work involved

Water Extraction Services by Material

The method depends on the floor and the water. Clean water in carpet calls for different tools than gray water on hardwood.

T

Truck-Mount Extraction

Large losses get a truck-mount, which pulls more water per pass and keeps the noisy machine outside.

W

Pulling Water From Under Carpet

Ride-on or stand-on weighted extraction tools compress the carpet and pad, forcing out water a wand alone cannot reach. This often lets the carpet stay in place.

H

Hardwood Water Removal

Suction mats placed on hardwood pull water up through board seams, which can prevent cupping and save the floor.

S

Subfloor and Pad Removal Decisions

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

The pro takes moisture meter readings before and after extraction so you can see the difference and the drying phase starts from a documented baseline.

Often, if the water was clean and extraction happens quickly. The pad is usually replaced. Carpet soaked by sewage or floodwater should be discarded.

Category 1 is clean water from a supply line. Category 2 is gray water from appliances or overflows and contains contaminants. Category 3 is grossly contaminated, like sewage or outside floodwater.

Extraction for a few rooms usually takes one to three hours. Drying afterward takes several days.
