What gets handled

How Water Extraction Is Done on Different Floors

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

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

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

Before-and-After Moisture Readings

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

From call to finished

Extractors on the way

A local pro confirms your address and arrival time, and asks you to clear a path from the driveway for hoses.

Moisture check and quote

The pro identifies the water category, maps the wet area with meters, and gives you a written price before running the extractor.

Extraction and drying handoff

After extraction, readings are taken again and drying equipment is placed to finish the job.

Carpet still squishing?
