Our Water Extraction Equipment and Methods

Truck-Mounted Extraction Units

Our truck-mounted extraction systems provide maximum suction power for rapid water removal from large areas. These powerful units can extract thousands of gallons per hour.

  • High-powered vacuum systems
  • Heated extraction for better results
  • Self-contained waste water storage
  • Continuous operation capability

Portable Extraction Equipment

For areas inaccessible to truck-mounted units, we use portable extraction equipment that can navigate stairs, tight spaces, and multiple floors while maintaining extraction power.

  • Portable high-suction extractors
  • Lightweight carpet wands
  • Upholstery extraction tools
  • Hard surface water removal

Submersible Pumps

For heavy flooding and standing water, our submersible pumps can quickly remove large volumes of water from basements, crawl spaces, and flooded areas.

  • High-capacity water pumps
  • Automatic float switches
  • Debris handling capability
  • Continuous duty operation

Moisture Detection Technology

We use advanced moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras to detect hidden water and ensure complete extraction from all affected areas.

  • Non-invasive moisture detection
  • Thermal imaging cameras
  • Pin and pinless moisture meters
  • Hygrometers for humidity monitoring

Types of Water We Extract

Different types of water damage require specialized extraction approaches. Our certified technicians are trained to handle all categories of water damage safely and effectively:

Clean Water (Category 1)

Water from clean sources like supply lines, rainwater, or melting snow. While clean, it can become contaminated if left standing, making rapid extraction essential.

  • Burst water pipes
  • Supply line failures
  • Rainwater intrusion
  • Appliance water lines

Gray Water (Category 2)

Water with some contamination that may contain chemicals or biological matter. Requires careful handling and proper safety protocols during extraction.

  • Washing machine overflows
  • Dishwasher leaks
  • Toilet bowl overflows (clean water)
  • Sump pump failures

Black Water (Category 3)

Highly contaminated water containing dangerous bacteria and pathogens. Requires specialized extraction procedures and safety equipment to protect health.

  • Sewage backups
  • Flooding from outside sources
  • Toilet overflows with waste
  • Storm water intrusion

Contaminated Water Sources

Any water that has been standing for extended periods or has come into contact with contaminated surfaces requires special extraction and disposal procedures.

  • Standing water over 48 hours
  • Chemical contamination
  • Fuel or oil contamination
  • Biological contamination

Our Water Extraction Process

Our systematic approach to water extraction ensures thorough water removal while protecting your property and health:

1. Safety Assessment

We begin every extraction job with a comprehensive safety assessment to identify electrical hazards, structural concerns, and contamination risks before beginning work.

2. Water Source Control

We locate and control the source of water intrusion to prevent additional water from entering the affected area during extraction operations.

3. Water Category Classification

We classify the water type to determine appropriate extraction methods, safety protocols, and disposal requirements for safe, effective removal.

4. Standing Water Removal

Using appropriate extraction equipment, we remove standing water starting with the deepest areas and working systematically through the affected space.

5. Moisture Extraction

We extract moisture from carpets, padding, upholstery, and other materials using specialized extraction tools designed for different surfaces and materials.

6. Hidden Water Detection

Using moisture meters and thermal imaging, we locate and extract water from hidden areas like wall cavities, under flooring, and behind baseboards.

Why Professional Water Extraction Matters

While it might seem simple to remove water with household equipment, professional water extraction provides several critical advantages that can save you time, money, and prevent serious problems:

Professional extraction equipment removes water much more quickly and thoroughly than consumer-grade equipment. This speed is critical because every hour that water remains in contact with building materials increases damage and the risk of mold growth. Our industrial equipment can extract moisture from materials that would otherwise need to be removed and replaced.

Our trained technicians understand the complexities of water damage and can identify potential problems before they become serious issues. We know how water travels through buildings, where it's likely to accumulate, and how to access hidden areas where water damage can occur undetected.

Professional water extraction also includes proper documentation for insurance purposes. We photograph the extraction process, measure moisture levels, and provide detailed reports that support your insurance claim and help ensure proper coverage for your losses.
