Truck-mount capacity lets us clear a flooded room significantly faster than portable units alone.
We determine contamination level first, since blackwater requires PPE and disposal steps clean water doesn't.
Weighted extraction tools pull water trapped deep in carpet fiber that a surface pass would miss.

Subfloor moisture often hides beneath flooring that looks dry on the surface.
You receive documented proof of extraction completion for your own records or an insurance claim.
