The equipment matters just as much as response time for Water Extraction — volume and suction determine how much moisture stays trapped versus how much comes out.
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 Slater, IA call, not an upgrade.
Classification testing on every Slater, IA call protects both your property and our technicians.
Saving original hardwood is possible with the right extraction method applied quickly.

Getting water out is only useful if it's done with the right classification and the right tools — here's our Slater 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.
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.
