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 West Forks, ME Water Extraction crews run truck-mount units capable of pulling far more volume than portable equipment.
Truck-mount extraction is standard equipment on every West Forks, ME call, not an upgrade.
We identify the contamination category before extraction to determine the correct safety protocol.
Hardwood floors in West Forks, ME often don't need replacement if injection drying pulls moisture from beneath the boards fast enough.

Below is the actual technical scope behind a Water Extraction job in West Forks, ME.
Truck-mount capacity lets us clear a flooded room significantly faster than portable units alone.

Extraction continues until documented moisture readings confirm the job is complete.
