Not all water pickup is equal — a shop vac and a truck-mount extraction unit produce very different outcomes on the same flooded room.
Our Mapleton, IA Water Extraction crews run truck-mount units capable of pulling far more volume than portable equipment.
Our Mapleton, IA truck-mount units pull significantly more water per hour than portable extraction gear.

Water Extraction is a methodology as much as a piece of equipment, and here's how our Mapleton, IA crews approach it.
We deploy truck-mount pumps for anything beyond a small, contained spill.
Water is tested and classified as Category 1, 2, or 3 before extraction protocol is finalized.
We extract carpet and padding as distinct materials since they hold and release moisture differently.
Injection drying systems pull moisture from beneath hardwood planks without pulling up the floor.
We check subfloor moisture at multiple points, not just where the visible water pooled.
You receive documented proof of extraction completion for your own records or an insurance claim.
A quick call helps us determine truck-mount versus portable equipment needs before we arrive.
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.
