Extraction done right in Shenandoah, VA 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.
Truck-mount extraction is standard equipment on every Shenandoah, VA call, not an upgrade.
We identify the contamination category before extraction to determine the correct safety protocol.

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.
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.
