Our water extraction process, step by step
Are you looking for water extraction services? There are inches of water in the basement, the carpet squelches, or the crawl space has turned into a pond. We pump standing water out of homes and commercial buildings and dry what it soaked, and the first step is a free inspection with no commitment.
1Call and we dispatch
Standing water will not wait, so neither do we. Someone answers 24/7, tells you how to shut the supply and which rooms to stay out of, and dispatches a crew with extraction gear. Most of the time we are pumping within the hour.
2We find where the water went
Pulling out the water you can see is the easy half. With moisture meters and a thermal imaging camera we follow it under tile, into carpet pad and down into the crawl space. DocuSketch records every room, so the extent of the flooding is on file.
3We dry it and handle the paperwork
Once the standing water is out, we set drying equipment and dehumidifiers. Most homes take three to five days, read daily until the IICRC standard is met. We write the job up in Xactimate, bill insurance above your deductible and leave the space ready for reconstruction.

“Great company! After my toilet was draining into my basement they were out within less than 30 minutes to look at the damage. Connor was very thorough with readings and pictures of the affected areas. I would highly recommend them if you are ever in need!”
We Work With All Insurance Companies
Extraction is often the first line on a water claim. We photograph the standing water before it goes, so your adjuster sees what you saw.

The Apex crew has done an amazing job with our water leak behind our washer machine. They were super fast to get on site with fans going to dry everything out. Great customer service from Mike, Dante and the crew. Everyone was very polite, courteous and did an awesome job. Thank you so much for all of your help.

Apex did an amazing job when my bathroom was flooded and there was water damage and mold! They made the process extremely easy on my end.
Why homeowners call us to remove standing water
We are there within the hour
Every hour that water stands, it climbs higher into drywall and deeper into subfloor. We keep crews on call around the clock so extraction can begin within the hour. Getting it out early is the best money decision in the whole job.
Free inspections & estimates (no commitment)
Before any pump runs, an IICRC certified technician measures how far the water has gone with a thermal camera and meters, and prices the work in writing. The inspection and the estimate are free. Neither commits you, and you sign only when you want us to start.
We work with all insurance companies
Most extraction jobs are insurance jobs. We send the invoice to your carrier, you cover the deductible, and the estimate comes from Xactimate, which is the software carriers themselves use. Paying on your own instead? The numbers do not change, and 0% financing options are available.
We work to maximize your coverage
The first hour is the one a carrier asks about, because it decides how much material had to come out. So we log arrival time, water depth and every room in DocuSketch, a habit built over hundreds of insurance claims. Nothing is guaranteed, but the record is complete.

“I would highly recommend Apex Restoration to anyone who needs a restoration services. We were in Mexico when we found out we had a blown water line flooding our home. I called the owner and he was there within 30 minutes to begin the extraction work and stopped the damage before it could spread. They were there till after midnight that 1st evening. Nate kept us informed as to their progress. He even made sure the transition between his team and the reconstruction team went smoothly. We couldn’t be happier. I hope we never have to use them again but if we did I wouldn’t hesitate to call them.”

Water extraction questions from homeowners
Questions we get from our customers and our answers.
How much does water extraction cost?
Cost depends on how much water there is, what it soaked and how hard it is to reach, so a crawl space costs more than a slab floor. We give you a written estimate after a free inspection. It is built in Xactimate, the software insurers price from, so insured and self-pay customers see the same figures. We also offer 0% financing options.
How quickly does standing water need to come out?
As soon as you can arrange it. In the first hours water is mostly on the surface. Within a day it has moved into drywall, framing and subfloor, and mold growth can start in damp material soon after that. Early extraction means less material to remove later, which is why we keep crews available 24/7.
Can my carpet be saved after it floods?
Often, if the water was clean and we get to it quickly. We extract the water, check the pad and the subfloor underneath with moisture meters, and tell you honestly whether drying it in place makes sense. Carpet that sat for days, or that was soaked by a sewage backup, usually has to go. You see the readings before we decide.
Do you remove water from crawl spaces?
Yes. Crawl space extraction is a regular part of our work. We pump out the standing water, check the vapor barrier and the framing above it, and set drying equipment down there, because a crawl space left damp feeds moisture into the floor overhead. We also try to identify where the water came from so it does not return.
If you come out to look, have I filed an insurance claim?
No. Looking is free and it is not a claim. We tell you what we found and whether it appears to be a covered loss, and you decide what to do next. If you file, we help with the first call and provide the documentation. You sign only if you hire us.
