Not all water extraction is the same. Consumer-grade shop vacuums pull surface water while saturation continues working into subfloor and wall assemblies. COS Water Damage Restoration's Geddes Water Extraction service deploys truck-mounted commercial systems rated for high-volume output — combined with thermal imaging and moisture metering that maps where the water you can't see has traveled.
Removes water faster than any portable unit.
FLIR thermal cameras reveal moisture in walls and under floors invisible to the naked eye.
Daily readings tracked until drying targets are met.
Handles water at depths portable extractors cannot.
The gap between a good extraction and a mediocre one isn't visible until weeks later — when mold shows up behind a wall that felt dry after a shop-vac cleanup. Here's what makes COS Water Damage Restoration's Geddes extraction service different.
The equipment we bring to your Geddes property is the same tier used by commercial disaster recovery operations.
Our Geddes crews are positioned locally — not dispatched from a regional hub. We target 60 minutes on-site from your call, with equipment staged during transit so we're working within minutes of arrival.
Science-based extraction and drying produces better outcomes than intuition-based approaches.
No estimates given over the phone without seeing the scope. No surprises after the work is done.
The right extraction approach depends on the water volume, source category, affected materials, and property type. Here's how we handle each scenario in Geddes.
Truck-mounted extraction systems — the most powerful commercial water removal equipment available — are deployed for high-volume flooding events in Geddes: storm flooding, major pipe failures, and large appliance failures that release significant water rapidly. Truck-mount output far exceeds portable units, reducing total extraction time and limiting saturation of structural assemblies.
Leaving hidden moisture behind after extraction is how Geddes properties develop mold three weeks after a "completed" job by another company.
Original hardwood flooring in Geddes properties responds differently to water extraction than vinyl or tile — the drying window is narrower, the risk of cupping and buckling is higher, and the technique must account for the seasonal moisture content of the wood at the time of loss. Our Geddes technicians assess hardwood conditions during extraction and immediately plan for mat drying or board-by-board evaluation based on what the moisture meters show.
Below-grade water extraction in Geddes requires submersible pump capability for standing water, then portable extractor transition for residual moisture, and finally vapor barrier inspection and replacement to prevent recurring moisture accumulation. Confined space protocols apply in crawlspaces with limited access — our Geddes crew carries the right equipment for each below-grade scenario.
Carpet may be salvageable when extracted quickly; pad is typically replaced regardless. Our Geddes team makes this determination honestly, based on the data.
Commercial extraction documentation is prepared to adjuster-ready standard throughout the process.


Call +1-844-499-0972 any time and a live dispatcher answers immediately. Your situation is assessed in real time, the nearest Geddes extraction crew is dispatched, and your estimated arrival time is confirmed before you hang up.
Our crew arrives with truck-mounted and portable extraction equipment configured for your reported scenario. Equipment is staged during transit so the crew is productive immediately on arrival — not spending 20 minutes unloading and setting up in your driveway.
Science-based scope assessment means the estimate is accurate, not a rough guess that changes after the fact.
Extraction is thorough — surface water, sub-floor moisture, and cavity saturation are all addressed in sequence. Immediately after extraction, our crew stages dehumidifiers and air movers to begin the structural drying program before mold risk accumulates.



"I've dealt with water damage before and had a mediocre extraction company leave moisture behind that turned into a mold problem. When it happened again in my Geddes home, I specifically asked what equipment the company used before booking. COS Water Damage Restoration mentioned their truck-mounted systems and that sold me. The difference in output versus my previous experience was obvious — they were pulling water at a rate I hadn't seen before. Moisture mapping after extraction showed everything was clear. The drying crew followed immediately. Zero mold issues six weeks later."
"As a property manager in Geddes with several units, I need water extraction contractors who document everything to adjuster standards and can scale to a multi-unit event. COS Water Damage Restoration has handled two multi-unit extractions for me and both times the documentation was clean, the coordination was smooth, and the bill matched the estimate. That consistency is hard to find."
"We called COS Water Damage Restoration after another company did what I now know was an incomplete extraction of our Geddes basement. When COS Water Damage Restoration arrived, their moisture mapping immediately showed saturation under the floor tiles that the first company's work had missed entirely. They extracted the residual moisture, replaced the vapor barrier in the crawlspace, and set up a proper drying program. The first company charged us and left a mold problem waiting to happen. COS Water Damage Restoration fixed it correctly."
