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 Decatur, OH truck-mount units pull significantly more water per hour than portable extraction gear.
Every Water Extraction job in Decatur, OH starts with water testing to classify it as clean, gray, or blackwater.
Hardwood floors in Decatur, OH often don't need replacement if injection drying pulls moisture from beneath the boards fast enough.
You get documented proof of extraction progress, not just a technician's word.
Water Extraction is a methodology as much as a piece of equipment, and here's how our Decatur, OH crews approach it.
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.
Verification reports give a data-backed answer to whether extraction actually solved the problem.
Tell our Decatur, OH dispatcher what happened so the right extraction equipment gets loaded.
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.
Extraction continues until documented moisture readings confirm the job is complete.
"They saved our hardwood floor with an injection drying method instead of ripping it all out. Saved us thousands." — Owen R.
"The moisture readings they gave us before and after made the whole process feel legitimate, not just a guess." — Bianca V.
"Truck-mount extraction cleared our flooded basement way faster than the shop vac approach a different company tried first." — Malik J.
Water Extraction includes Category classification, documented moisture readings, and specialty methods like injection drying, not just pumping.
We'll assess whether injection drying is viable before recommending tear-out.
Category 1 is clean water, Category 2 is gray water with some contamination, and Category 3 is sewage or blackwater requiring full PPE.
You'll receive documented extraction logs suitable for insurance or your own records.
As soon as possible — every hour standing water sits increases how deep it penetrates flooring and subfloor.
Documented reports are standard and can be provided directly to your adjuster on request.
Decatur is within our core extraction service area, backed by regional equipment support.
