Extraction done right in Hammond, IN starts with Category classification, because clean water and contaminated water are handled under very different protocols.
We classify every loss as Category 1, 2, or 3 before extraction begins, then document readings throughout the job.
Our Hammond, IN truck-mount units pull significantly more water per hour than portable extraction gear.
We identify the contamination category before extraction to determine the correct safety protocol.
We use specialty injection systems designed to dry hardwood from underneath rather than defaulting to tear-out.
Every Water Extraction job in Hammond, IN comes with moisture readings logged before, during, and after extraction.
Getting water out is only useful if it's done with the right classification and the right tools — here's our Hammond process.
We deploy truck-mount pumps for anything beyond a small, contained spill.
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.
We monitor injection drying progress with moisture meters calibrated for wood species.
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.

A technician heads out immediately with truck-mount or portable units as needed.
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.
