Signs to keep an eye out for

When to call us for commercial extraction

Before we get to work, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

The wet area is measured in thousands of square feet

Before we get to work, one open floorplate can hold more water than a dozen residential rooms. To straighten this out, area, not appearance, settles how many machines and crews are needed.

Water left standing is deeper than about an inch

Before we get to work, above about an inch a wet vacuum stops being useful and a submersible pump becomes the right first tool.

Your janitorial crew has worked it for hours and it is not shrinking

In plain words, that as a rule means water is being pushed rather than removed.

The floor is glue down carpet or carpet tile

Before we get to work, there is no cushion to squeeze, so the water sits in the backing and along the floor adhesive line.

Vinyl composition tile or sheet vinyl is lifting or the seams are opening

Once we are on the job site, water under resilient flooring cannot evaporate through it.

Water is under a raised access floor or in floor boxes

In plain words, water below panels reaches cabling and outlets and is invisible from above. In plain words, power to that area stays off, and panel lifting is a crew task.

What happens

How we take on commercial extraction

Our hands-on restoration team adjusts the work to what got wet, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be saved.

Floorplate assessment and an extraction grid

Before we get to work, we measure the wet area, mark it on your plan, and divide the floor into sections with an order of work.

Truck mounted extraction, multiple units where the area justifies it

In plain words, a truck mounted extractor moves water by the hundreds of gallons per hour.

Portable extraction for upper floors and long hose runs

To straighten this out, truck mount hose has a practical reach, so upper floors are served by portable units staged near the work with a shorter run to the machine.

Submersible pumping to take the depth down first

Before we get to work, pumps handle bulk volume far faster than any extraction tool.

Weighted tool passes on carpet, with the glue down decision made honestly

To straighten this out, weight closes the vacuum seal, so the tool is ridden slowly.

Hard surface and seam extraction on resilient and concrete floors

To straighten this out, sealed heads work vinyl composition tile, sheet vinyl and sealed concrete. In plain words, seams, expansion joints and wall lines get individual detail passes.

What to expect

What to expect from our hands-on restoration team

Here is how we as a rule handle commercial extraction near West Virginia.

  1. 1

    You call with square footage and floor covering

    Once we are on the job site, those two facts size the job faster than anything else.

    Your call
  2. 2

    Source isolated and the discharge question answered

    Once we are on the job site, your engineer isolates the supply or riser. In plain words, if the valve can only be reached through water left standing, stop and call the utility.

    +5 minutes
  3. 3

    The work window is agreed

    To straighten this out, now, tonight after close, or across the weekend. Once we are on the job site, crews are dispatched today or tonight depending on which window you choose.

    +15 minutes
  4. 4

    Access, parking, hose route and elevator booked

    Before we get to work, we confirm where the truck sits, how the hose reaches the floor, and which freight elevator is reserved.

    Before we arrive
  5. 5

    The floor is gridded and the order of work set

    Before we get to work, we walk the area with meters, mark the wet boundary and split it into sections.

    On arrival
  6. 6

    Pumps take the depth down

    Once we are on the job site, submersible pumps clear bulk volume first at the low points. In plain words, extraction tools need a floor they can seal against to work correctly.

    First hour on site
  7. 7

    Gross extraction across the open floor

    Once we are on the job site, truck mounted and portable units make fast first passes section by section.

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

We spell out the recommended work and price before you approve the job. These examples show what may change the price breakdown.

Common situationWhat the estimate may includeTypical range
Extraction stage only on a commercial floorplate, clean waterNational price breakdown for mechanical extraction only. Drying gear, monitoring and repairs are separate.$1 to $3 per square foot
Overnight extraction crew on an open floorplate of about 5,000 to 15,000 square feetNational price breakdown for a single shift including crew, machines and shift premium. Area and floor covering set the position in the range.$2,500 to $9,000
Pump out plus gross extraction on one commercial levelNational price breakdown for the water removal stage alone, on clean water.$1,500 to $6,000
Glue down carpet or carpet tile extraction with detail passesNational price breakdown. Slower than open hard floor since every pass has to seal against the carpet backing.$0.75 to $2.00 per square foot
Vinyl composition tile, sheet vinyl or sealed concrete detail extractionNational price breakdown. Fast on open areas, slower along seams, expansion joints and wall lines.$0.50 to $1.50 per square foot
Additional truck mounted unit and crew on the same shiftNational price breakdown. This is how a floor that would take two days gets cleared in one night.$800 to $2,500 per shift
After hours dispatch on the first visitNational price breakdown for the after hours call out, before any shift labor premium.$100 to $400

  • Total square footage extracted
    Once we are on the job site, extraction is fundamentally an area job.

  • Floor covering type
    Sealed concrete extracts fastest. Glue down carpet and carpet tile are slower since water sits in the backing and adhesive with no cushion to compress.

  • Depth of standing water
    Once we are on the job site, deep water needs pumping before tools are useful, which adds a stage.

  • Crew size needed to fit the window
    Once we are on the job site, clearing a floor in one overnight shift takes more crew than clearing it in two days.

  • After hours and shift premiums
    In plain words, after hours dispatch is commonly $100 to $400 nationally, and overnight or weekend crew shifts carry a labor premium on top of that.

  • Access, hose distance and vertical staging
    To straighten this out, upper floors need portable units, staging space and a reserved freight elevator.

Why timing matters

What can happen when the area stays wet

Once we are on the job site, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

Every hour, more water moves somewhere a tool cannot reach

Before we get to work, water on an open floor travels under partitions, into wall bases and along the floor adhesive line.

Floor adhesive releases and salvageable flooring stops being salvageable

In plain words, prolonged wetting softens the adhesive under glue down carpet and resilient tile. To straighten this out, once the bond lets go, extraction cannot bring that floor back.

Miss the window and you extract during trading hours

Before we get to work, hose across a corridor and machines running through a business day cost more than the shift premium you were trying to avoid.

Water under a raised floor reaches cabling and floor boxes

In plain words, below panel water sits directly against connections and conduit. In plain words, that area stays de-energized until it is extracted and cleared by your electrician.

Helpful service information

What to know about commercial extraction

In plain words, start with the short explanation. Once we are on the job site, open a card if you want a little more detail.

What is happening inside the property

In plain words, extraction machines are rated on vacuum lift and airflow, and a truck mounted extractor combines high lift with the power to run long hose.

Read the explanation

Once we are on the job site, the volume math is why commercial extraction is its own trade.

How the next step is decided

Every foot of hose costs vacuum performance, so a truck mounted unit parked at the loading area has a practical working radius.

Read the explanation

Access is the constraint that settles how much crew is useful. Every foot of hose costs vacuum performance, so a truck mounted unit parked at the loading area has a practical working radius.

What may change the work

Glue down carpet and carpet tile have no cushion, so water sits in the backing and along the adhesive line.

Read the explanation

Commercial floors behave differently from residential ones, and the tool follows the floor. Glue down carpet and carpet tile have no cushion, so water sits in the backing and along the adhesive line.

Common questions

Questions about commercial extraction

How much water can you actually remove in one night?

To straighten this out, it depends on area, depth and floor covering more than on hours. Once we are on the job site, a truck mounted extractor moves water at hundreds of gallons per hour, and adding a second unit and crew right around doubles the ground covered per shift.

Can you clear the whole floor in the window we can give you?

To straighten this out, let us know the hours and the square footage and we will answer honestly. Before we get to work, a single crew clears a predictable amount of floor per shift, and adding a truck mount and crew right around doubles it.

How much does commercial on-site extraction cost?

Once we are on the job site, as national estimates, the extraction stage commonly runs $1 to $3 per square foot. To straighten this out, an overnight crew on a 5,000 to 15,000 square foot floorplate frequently runs $2,500 to $9,000.

Can glue down commercial carpet be saved?

Once we are on the job site, frequently, if we get to it quickly. Before we get to work, there is no cushion to squeeze, so water sits in the backing and along the adhesive line and needs slow weighted passes.

What about vinyl composition tile and sheet vinyl?

Once we are on the job site, water under resilient flooring cannot evaporate through it. Before we get to work, small areas sometimes dry from the edges and seams. To straighten this out, widespread water under sheet vinyl as a rule means lifting the covering to dry the slab beneath it.

Is polished concrete damaged by water left standing?

To straighten this out, the slab itself is very tolerant. To straighten this out, the issues are surface staining, water travelling along joints, and moisture that has moved into the concrete and will affect any future floor covering.

Can you certify our slab is dry enough for new flooring?

In plain words, we provide our readings as supporting evidence for your flooring installer. Once we are on the job site, their warranty testing is their own, using methods like ASTM F2170 relative humidity probes or a calcium chloride test.
