Not all water pickup is equal — a shop vac and a truck-mount extraction unit produce very different outcomes on the same flooded room.
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 Cornish, ME call, not an upgrade.
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.
You get documented proof of extraction progress, not just a technician's word.
Getting water out is only useful if it's done with the right classification and the right tools — here's our Cornish 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.
Extraction continues below the surface layer whenever subfloor readings show trapped moisture.
Verification reports give a data-backed answer to whether extraction actually solved the problem.
A quick call helps us determine truck-mount versus portable equipment needs before we arrive.
Our nearest Cornish, ME crew arrives with extraction equipment matched to your reported loss.
You'll know the classification and cost before work starts.
Extraction continues until documented moisture readings confirm the job is complete.
"They saved our hardwood floor with an injection drying method instead of ripping it all out. Saved us thousands." — Owen R.
"The moisture readings they gave us before and after made the whole process feel legitimate, not just a guess." — Bianca V.
"Truck-mount extraction cleared our flooded basement way faster than the shop vac approach a different company tried first." — Malik J.
A basic pump-out skips classification testing and moisture documentation that Water Extraction includes.
Often, yes — injection drying pulls moisture from beneath the boards without removing the floor.
Classification determines the safety protocol and disposal requirements for the job.
You'll receive documented extraction logs suitable for insurance or your own records.
We prioritize speed specifically because extraction timing affects final outcomes.
We issue a written extraction report formatted for insurance use, not just internal notes.
Cornish is within our core extraction service area, backed by regional equipment support.
