Not all water pickup is equal — a shop vac and a truck-mount extraction unit produce very different outcomes on the same flooded room.
We classify every loss as Category 1, 2, or 3 before extraction begins, then document readings throughout the job.
Truck-mount extraction is standard equipment on every Lakeland, MI call, not an upgrade.
Every Water Extraction job in Lakeland, MI starts with water testing to classify it as clean, gray, or blackwater.
We use specialty injection systems designed to dry hardwood from underneath rather than defaulting to tear-out.
Every Water Extraction job in Lakeland, MI comes with moisture readings logged before, during, and after extraction.
Below is the actual technical scope behind a Water Extraction job in Lakeland, MI.
High-volume truck-mount units handle standing water across large areas fast.
We determine contamination level first, since blackwater requires PPE and disposal steps clean water doesn't.
We extract carpet and padding as distinct materials since they hold and release moisture differently.
This specialty method can save original hardwood that would otherwise require full tear-out.
Extraction continues below the surface layer whenever subfloor readings show trapped moisture.
Every job closes with a written extraction report showing before-and-after moisture readings.
A quick call helps us determine truck-mount versus portable equipment needs before we arrive.
Equipment is pre-loaded based on dispatch notes, so there's no delay on arrival.
We test and classify the water, then provide a written quote before extraction begins.
