Below is the actual technical scope behind a Water Extraction job in Ely, MN.
Truck-mount capacity lets us clear a flooded room significantly faster than portable units alone.
Water is tested and classified as Category 1, 2, or 3 before extraction protocol is finalized.
Carpet and pad get separately assessed — pad usually can't be saved, but carpet often can with fast, thorough extraction.
This specialty method can save original hardwood that would otherwise require full tear-out.
We check subfloor moisture at multiple points, not just where the visible water pooled.
Every job closes with a written extraction report showing before-and-after moisture readings.
Tell our Ely, MN dispatcher what happened so the right extraction equipment gets loaded.
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.
We don't sign off until logged readings hit the target, not just until it looks dry.
