Classification testing happens on-site before any extraction equipment starts running.

You receive documented proof of extraction completion for your own records or an insurance claim.
Tell our Urbana, IL dispatcher what happened so the right extraction equipment gets loaded.
A technician heads out immediately with truck-mount or portable units as needed.
We test and classify the water, then provide a written quote before extraction begins.
We don't sign off until logged readings hit the target, not just until it looks dry.
