- Using The Latest Range of Extraction Equipment.
- Great Attention to Detail.
Our Extraction Equipment
We use dual vacuum portable extraction. The key to effective extraction is the power of the vacuum. Our staff only use the most effective up to date machines. Our company will also employ weighted extraction wands in instances where additional extraction is appropriate.
Another extraction option is the use of a water claw. This device is outstanding to get as much water out of carpet and underlay. Submersible pumps are occasionally employed in extreme cases of water damage. The pumps combine with traditional extraction.
The combination of air movers and dehumidifiers also extract water. They will dry floors, walls, ceilings, carpets and underlay.

Extracting Water Alone is Doing Half the Work
FACT CHECK:
Extraction alone will not remove all the water from your carpet and underlay.
To understand this better you must think whether the water affected material is porous or not. In the case of carpets, do not be fooled. Whilst a lot of water is found in a carpet, the underlay and subfloor are also affected.
Extracting the water from the carpet will help. Most carpets will, however, take many days to completely dry. Because there is almost zero airflow underneath the carpet, this is a recipe for mould incubation.

Costing Our Restoration Work
Professional water damage restoration is not cheap. Our technicians will furnish you with a detailed breakdown of the restoration costs involved.
FACT CHECK:
Doing the water restoration yourself is not effective.
Water damage restoration is complex. That is why there are specialists who do the work. Training combines with equipment and experience. Quite often we find customers who have tried to rent an extractor and even the odd fan. Unless you are completely sure what to do, we recommend you leave water damage restoration to the experts.
Without the appropriate moisture measuring equipment you cannot determine the level of water damage. Customers underestimate the extent of the damage. Remedial work done based on poor information result in secondary damage.

The 3 Different Types of Water Damage
The pages below give insight into how types of water impact our restoration choices.
CLEAN WATER DAMAGE
This is the easiest type of water damage for us to deal with. We use moisture meters and thermal imaging to get an accurate idea of the extent of your water ingress.
Professional inspection will show you the true damage.
Contaminated water may pose a health threat to you and your family. Making sure the water is clean helps us complete the appropriate workplace safety assessment.
GREY WATER DAMAGE
The classification of this water damage class is perhaps the most complicated. The water can initially be quite clean.
Our technicians will look at factors to determine the water classification.
As the days go by the contamination will increase to the level where it is classed as black water instead of grey.
BLACK WATER DAMAGE
This is the most severe type of water damage. It causes significant damage to contents and structures. Most of the damage cannot be restored.
This level of water damage is best left to the professionals.
Black water can have a distinct odour. There are quite often visual markers present, thus making correct classification easy.
