Not all water pickup is equal — a shop vac and a truck-mount extraction unit produce very different outcomes on the same flooded room.
Moisture meters and documented extraction logs come standard on every Water Extraction job we run in Lake Villa, IL.

Getting water out is only useful if it's done with the right classification and the right tools — here's our Lake Villa process.
We deploy truck-mount pumps for anything beyond a small, contained spill.
Classification testing happens on-site before any extraction equipment starts running.
Weighted extraction tools pull water trapped deep in carpet fiber that a surface pass would miss.

Extraction continues below the surface layer whenever subfloor readings show trapped moisture.
You receive documented proof of extraction completion for your own records or an insurance claim.

Category testing and a written estimate come before any pump starts running.
We don't sign off until logged readings hit the target, not just until it looks dry.
