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

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

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 Floor Extraction Mats

Specialized floor mats connected to high-pressure vacuum draw moisture up through the boards and the gaps between them, giving solid hardwood a real chance at survival.

S

When Pad Has to Go

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.
