Water extraction is a time-sensitive process. The quicker you can begin the water extraction process, the better. Standing water can not only cause severe damage to carpeting, walls, floorboards, and furniture, but it can also create a perfect environment for the development of mold. Arizona Fire and Water Restoration, Inc. will respond to your water extraction emergency 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They will also prepare a detailed estimate of the damage incurred that can be used by your insurance company to calculate your total benefits. In addition to their quick response and excellent customer service, Arizona Fire and Water Restoration, Inc. offers the use of the leading industry tools to get the job done.

One of the very best tools they use is the Hydro-X Extreme Extractor. This electric-powered, hand-activated piece of equipment has the ability to extract water from carpets and padding. It removes water in a process referred to as "top-down" drying. This simply means that the Hydro-X runs over the surface of the carpeting and dries it without having to remove either the carpeting or the padding.

Some restoration companies utilize other various methods for water extraction, and many rely on methods other than top-down drying. Some restoration companies insist that carpeting has to be removed in order to thoroughly dry it out. This simply is not true; in fact, removing wet carpeting can cause severe and permanent damage to the structure of the carpet. By not removing your wet carpeting to dry it, Arizona Fire and Water Restoration, Inc. saves you both time and money.

Full Extraction Required

One of the most important rules of water extraction is that in addition to getting the water extracted quickly, one has to extract the water fully. Residual water left in carpet or padding can quite easily become a perfect environment for the development of mold and mildew. Arizona Fire and Water Restoration, Inc. guarantees that they will remove all of the water from your carpeting, and they follow up the extraction with a dehumidification process that ensures that your structure is perfectly dry.
