Signs to look for

When to call us for water extraction

As the coordinated steps continue, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

The floor is damp again an hour after you dried it

With the scene stabilized, water moves back to the surface from the padding and the subfloor as soon as you stop working.

Water is sitting in grout lines, seams or expansion joints

From the first status check, tile, vinyl plank and sealed concrete look dry within minutes while water stays in the joints and under the covering.

Hardwood is cupping or the planks feel tight

With the scene stabilized, cupping means the underside of each board is absorbing water and swelling.

Standing water is deeper than about two inches

As the coordinated steps continue, extractors are built for water inside materials, not for volume. From the first status check, anything with real depth gets pumped down first with a submersible or trash pump.

Vinyl or laminate flooring is lifting or feels spongy

As the coordinated steps continue, these coverings act as a vapor barrier, so water underneath cannot evaporate upward at all.

Your shop vac tank keeps filling and the floor still reads wet

Gallons removed is the honest measure of on-scene on-scene progress, and a small tank empties long before an assembly does.

What happens

How we take command of water extraction

Our incident command team adjusts the work to which materials took on water, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be saved.

Truck mounted extraction

With the scene stabilized, a truck mounted system runs from the vehicle with long hose runs into the building, producing far more vacuum lift and airflow than any portable unit.

Portable extractors for upper floors and tight access

As the coordinated steps continue, where a hose cannot reach, portable extractors go up stairs, into elevators and through high rise corridors.

Submersible and trash pumps for depth

To keep the incident under control, standing water beyond a couple of inches gets pumped, not extracted, because pumps move volume far faster.

Weighted and self propelled extraction tools

From the first status check, a weighted or self propelled extractor presses down on carpet with real weight while vacuuming, which squeezes water out of the padding beneath.

Hard surface tools and squeegee heads

To keep the incident under control, tile, sealed concrete, vinyl and stone need tools that seal against a flat surface and pull water out of joints and low spots.

Sub surface and subfloor extraction

From the first status check, where water sits between flooring layers, we reach it through small drilled openings or a lifted section rather than tearing out the whole floor.

What to expect

What to expect from our incident command team

As the coordinated steps continue, here is how we usually handle water extraction near North Carolina.

1
Assessment and depth check

To keep the incident under control, we measure standing depth, identify every material holding water, and decide which tools the job needs. As the coordinated steps continue, you get the incident plan and the price before anything runs.
Hour 0 to 1
2
Pumping bulk volume down

To keep the incident under control, submersible or trash pumps take standing water out first, because pumps move volume much faster than extractors.
Hour 1
3
Gross extraction pass

With the scene stabilized, the truck mount runs with wide tools to remove the bulk of the remaining water from flooring.
Hour 1 to 3
4
Slow weighted pass on carpet and pad

To keep the incident under control, a technician makes deliberate, overlapping passes with a weighted tool, pausing on each spot so the pad releases its water.
Hour 2 to 4
5
Hard surface and detail extraction

To keep the incident under control, squeegee tools clear tile, vinyl and concrete, including grout lines, thresholds and under toe kicks.
Hour 3 to 4
6
Sub surface, cavity and specialty extraction

As the coordinated steps continue, where readings show water between layers or inside a wall, we extract through small openings and set cavity airflow.
Hour 4 to 6
7
Verification readings

As the coordinated steps continue, we re meter the same marked points and compare against a dry area of the same structure.
Hour 6

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

As the coordinated steps continue, we explain the recommended work and price before you approve the job. As the coordinated steps continue, these examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situation	What the estimate may include	Typical range
Carpet and pad extraction, one to two rooms, pad left in place	To keep the incident under control, national estimate for the extraction stage only. As the coordinated steps continue, drying equipment is billed separately per unit per day.	$350 to $1,000
Standard extraction pricing by area, clean water	As the coordinated steps continue, national estimate for the mechanical extraction stage on typical residential flooring.	$1 to $3 per square foot
Pump out plus extraction after several inches of standing water	With the scene stabilized, national estimate. As the coordinated steps continue, includes pumping the depth down, gross extraction and detail passes across a floor level.	$800 to $3,000
Hardwood floor panel drying system with monitoring	With the scene stabilized, national estimate. As the coordinated steps continue, specialty panels and dehumidification typically run seven to fourteen days with daily readings.	$1,500 to $5,000
Upholstery or mattress extraction, per item	To keep the incident under control, national estimate for clean water only. With the scene stabilized, items soaked with contaminated water are removed rather than extracted.	$75 to $300

Square footage actually extracted
As the coordinated steps continue, pricing follows the area holding water, which we map with meters before quoting.
Standing depth and pumping needs
As the coordinated steps continue, depth is a volume problem and gets pumped, often billed separately from extraction.
Flooring type and assembly
With the scene stabilized, sealed concrete and tile are the cheapest to extract.
Pad in place versus pad removal
With the scene stabilized, extracting a pad where it lies is cheaper than removing it, but it only works with clean water caught early.
Specialty extraction systems
From the first status check, hardwood floor mat systems and wall cavity drying are billed as specialty equipment, typically per day, and they run longer than standard drying.
Water cleanliness
With the scene stabilized, clean water extraction is straightforward.

Why timing matters

What can happen when the area stays wet

From the first status check, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

Drying takes two or three times as long

As the coordinated steps continue, every gallon left behind has to be evaporated into the air and then pulled out by a dehumidifier, which is a slow, energy intensive process.

Wet padding keeps refeeding the floor

As the coordinated steps continue, padding that was never extracted holds water against the carpet and the subfloor for days.

Subfloor and sheet goods delaminate

With the scene stabilized, plywood layers separate and particleboard swells and crumbles once water sits between the layers.

Hardwood cupping becomes permanent

From the first status check, wood that swells and then dries too slowly or unevenly can crown, gap or crack.

Helpful service information

What to know about water extraction

With the scene stabilized, start with the short explanation. From the first status check, open a card if you want a little more detail.

What is happening inside the property

As the coordinated steps continue, vacuum lift, rated in inches of water lift, is the suction pressure a machine can generate, and airflow is how much air it moves.

Read the explanation

From the first status check, extraction equipment is measured in two ways. As the coordinated steps continue, vacuum lift, rated in inches of water lift, is the suction pressure a machine can generate, and airflow is how much air it moves.

How the next step is decided

A low grain refrigerant dehumidifier removes a modest number of gallons from the air in a full day of operation.

Read the explanation

The economics of extraction come down to one comparison. A low grain refrigerant dehumidifier removes a modest number of gallons from the air in a full day of operation.

What may change the work

To keep the incident under control, carpet with pad responds to weighted tools that compress the assembly while vacuuming.

Read the explanation

From the first status check, different materials require different extraction strategies, and the tool choice is most of the expertise.

Common questions

Questions about water extraction

What is the difference between water extraction and water removal?

From the first status check, water removal is the whole job of getting water out of a building, including pumping, extraction, tear out and drying.

Is extraction the same as drying?

As the coordinated steps continue, no, and mixing them up is the most common mistake we see. With the scene stabilized, extraction physically pulls out liquid water in hours.

Can I just rent a carpet cleaner or use a shop vac?

From the first status check, you can, and it will help with a small spill on a hard surface.

How much water can you actually remove?

With the scene stabilized, a truck mounted system can recover hundreds of gallons in an hour under good conditions, while a typical dehumidifier removes a limited number of gallons in a whole day.

Do you have to pull up my carpet?

To keep the incident under control, often not. From the first status check, if the water was clean and we reach it quickly, our responders can extract the pad where it lies with weighted tools and keep everything in place.

Can wet carpet padding be saved?

To keep the incident under control, sometimes, with clean water and fast extraction, though it always extends the sequenced drying time compared with replacing it.

How long does extraction take?

From the first status check, most residential extractions run two to six hours, depending on area, depth and flooring type.
