We ask enough questions to send the right-sized extraction unit on the first trip.
Our nearest Homewood, AL crew arrives with extraction equipment matched to your reported loss.
Category testing and a written estimate come before any pump starts running.
Extraction continues until documented moisture readings confirm the job is complete.
