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 Paton 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.
High-volume truck-mounted extractors for large-scale flooding events in Paton.
FLIR thermal cameras reveal moisture in walls and under floors invisible to the naked eye.
Pinpoint and pin-type meters used to document exact moisture levels at each sensor point.
Handles water at depths portable extractors cannot.
Four commitments that define every Water Extraction job COS Water Damage Restoration performs in Paton.
Every Paton job gets truck-mounted extraction rated for high-volume output, thermal imaging cameras that reveal sub-surface saturation, and moisture meters that document conditions at every sensor point. Consumer rental equipment doesn't come close.
The faster extraction begins, the smaller the final damage scope. Speed is built into our Paton operation.
WRT certification isn't a formality — it determines whether your drying plan is based on psychrometric science or guesswork. Every Paton technician we deploy carries active WRT certification and applies calibrated, documented methods.
No estimates given over the phone without seeing the scope. No surprises after the work is done.
COS Water Damage Restoration's Paton Water Extraction team handles every water extraction scenario — from residential flooding to large commercial events — with equipment and technique matched to the specific situation.
For large-scale events in Paton, the right equipment makes the difference between hours and days of extraction time.
Leaving hidden moisture behind after extraction is how Paton properties develop mold three weeks after a "completed" job by another company.
Original hardwood flooring in Paton 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 Paton 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 Paton 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 Paton crew carries the right equipment for each below-grade scenario.
Carpet may be salvageable when extracted quickly; pad is typically replaced regardless. Our Paton team makes this determination honestly, based on the data.
Commercial and multi-family properties in Paton present extraction challenges that residential scenarios don't: larger square footage, multiple affected units, infrastructure protection requirements, and business interruption cost. Our Paton commercial extraction team scales crew and equipment to match the loss — deploying multiple extraction units and coordinating logistics across floors and units with a single dedicated project manager tracking the full scope.


Call +1-844-499-0972 any time and a live dispatcher answers immediately. Your situation is assessed in real time, the nearest Paton 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.
We don't leave after extraction — we stay to set up drying so the project transitions without delay.



"The thermal imaging step was what impressed me most. Our Paton property looked dry to me, but their camera showed moisture migration behind the baseboard on two walls I never would have suspected. If that had been left in place and the drying missed it, we'd have had mold within the month. Very glad they do this as standard procedure."
"Our hardwood floors in a Paton craftsman home were at risk after the flooding. The COS Water Damage Restoration crew's extraction specialist assessed the moisture content in the boards during extraction and confirmed they were within the drying window for mat drying. We saved the floors — the difference in cost versus replacement was significant. The specialist explained the whole process and called with readings every morning."
"We called COS Water Damage Restoration after another company did what I now know was an incomplete extraction of our Paton 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."
