Water Extraction in Alpine done right means extracting every drop — the visible and the hidden — and transitioning immediately to a calculated drying program before the 24-48 hour mold clock expires.
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.
For deep standing water in Alpine basements and crawlspaces before truck-mount transition.
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 Alpine extraction service different.
The equipment we bring to your Alpine property is the same tier used by commercial disaster recovery operations.
Our Alpine 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.
WRT certification isn't a formality — it determines whether your drying plan is based on psychrometric science or guesswork. Every Alpine technician we deploy carries active WRT certification and applies calibrated, documented methods.
On arrival in Alpine, our crew assesses, prepares a written Xactimate-based estimate, and reviews it with you before a single piece of equipment is operated. The approved number is the invoiced number.
COS Water Damage Restoration's Alpine Water Extraction team handles every water extraction scenario — from residential flooding to large commercial events — with equipment and technique matched to the specific situation.
Truck-mounted extraction systems — the most powerful commercial water removal equipment available — are deployed for high-volume flooding events in Alpine: 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 Alpine properties develop mold three weeks after a "completed" job by another company.
Hardwood floor salvage is a specialty — not every water extraction crew in Alpine has the training or equipment to do it right.
Crawlspace water left in place creates lasting structural moisture problems and serves as a primary mold incubation environment.
Carpet may be salvageable when extracted quickly; pad is typically replaced regardless. Our Alpine 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 Alpine 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.



"The thermal imaging step was what impressed me most. Our Alpine 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 Alpine 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."
"The written estimate before extraction was a first for me — every other contractor I've used has just started working and handed me a bill. COS Water Damage Restoration's pricing conversation happens before the equipment turns on. That's the right way to do it and I won't use anyone who doesn't operate this way."
